Mark your calendar and bring your entire family to the annual ECDS Fall Festival. This afternoon of fun has a PK/K area with age-appropriate games, activities, and prizes, as well as challenging and spooky activity booths, and an assortment of inflatable slides and obstacle courses. Refreshments, a Petting Zoo, and the ever-popular Pumpkin Walk are sure to provide hours of enjoyment for all. The infamous Haunted House will be run by ECDS Middle School students (and supervised by school staff members), offering both “Scary” and “Non-Scary” options.
This event is open to current ECDS families along with their friends and family members, as well as families that have recently toured the ECDS campus. The ECDS Parent Action Committee (PAC) will be selling discounted admissions in advance and collecting regular admission at the gate. Food vendors will accept cash on the day-of the event.
On Sept. 26th, ECDS will celebrate its 35th Anniversary during a school-wide event for staff and students. The festivities will include many of the features enjoyed during our 30th anniversary, which is pictured here.
The Parent Action Committee’s (“PAC”) first meeting of the year will be held in the ECDS Library, beginning at 9:00 am on Thursday, September 7th. The PAC has volunteer opportunities to fit every ECDS parent’s schedule and area of interest. While some choose to be event managers or task force leaders, others serve as decorators and servers, designers and planners, ticket-takers and treasurers. From Fun Fridays to the Fall Festival, Teacher Appreciation Day to the school-wide Holiday Breakfast, PAC volunteers spearhead the amazing on-campus activities and events that make a child’s time at ECDS extremely fun and especially memorable.
