Hello Parents!!

HELLO PARENTS!!

I can't express enough how amazing the first couple of days have been here at Ezell-Harding! I have seen lots of enthusiastic parents and students. I have truly enjoyed getting to meet you all this week! There are so many things to discuss with you already!

We would like to know who wants to help! We are starting a PTO, and your classroom teacher is helping get information out for that! We would also like you to let your child's teacher know if you want to help in other ways around the school. We are wanting parents not only here at school but also involved at school.  I already have needs for some parent volunteers.

Today, we had our first all school chapel. It was so wonderful to have all of the students together singing and praising God. I know our little ones really enjoyed seeing the "big kids!" I will have some pictures posted later when I get all the photo permission forms turned in.


We also had our fundraiser kick off meeting. We had a represenative from Entertainment book, Smart Card, and Magazines to share with us the prizes we would win if we get out there and sell! The students were so excited to hear about what they will earn! Please help us in our effort to raise funds for the school. I love the Entertainment book and Smart Cards, because both have some great new coupons in the front this year! You should check it out!



Like I have stated above, it has been a great start to this school year, and I would like to make mention of some new additions that we have on staff in our Elementary Building.
 * Caroline Bumpus is our new Spanish Teacher. She graduated from Lipscomb University and has lived in Mexico for the last year. We are glad to have her apart of our team! She will teach PK-8th grade!
*Lynette Shields is new to our building. She will be teaching ART to our students! We are happy to have her with us!
*Laura Ice,who taught here several years ago, is back and teaching 1st grade. She is also going to be running an after school Fine Arts program! We are very excited to have her with us!
*Kaysha Sells is our new Kindergarten teacher. She just graduated from Tennessee Tech University, and we are excited she is apart of our staff.
*Kristy Pomeroy is our new Guidance Counselor. She was a Director of  Residental Transition Centers. We are thrilled to have her as apart of our team as well!

We have lots of new and exciting things happening in our school. Next week, during our chapel on Thursday, we will have the gentlemen on the football team come and speak to us. Our students will get to see  and meet them before their first game on Friday! What a fun time for our children!
