Break is coming but first...

Hello Parents,
I know this newsletter is coming a bit early this week, but we only have a few days of school left. I wanted to make sure everyone was on the same page about the upcoming half days. First, I would like to say what a tremendous first semester we have had. The support and love you have shown me in the few short months I have been here has been incredible. Alexander Graham Bell once said this very familiar saying, "When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us." I feel we have all seen the opening of many doors here at Ezell and are embracing the change. I'm glad we are not choosing to stare at the closed doors but are opening our hearts to this community of friends and family here at EHCS. We are growing together, and I love being a part of our students' lives everyday! With all that being said, thank you for a wonderful semester, and I look forward to next year! Now, a few things to discuss before the break...


Wednesday, December 14th- Regular school day wearing our school uniforms (one last time before Christmas)!


Thursday, December 15th½ day of school, and we dismiss at 11:00 a.m. Our students can wear jeans and an Ezell T-shirt!


Friday, December 16th- ½ day of school, and we dismiss at 11:00 a.m. Our students are having "Polar Express Day," and they can wear their PAJAMAS!!


Monday, December 19th- ½ day of school, and we dismiss at 11:00 a.m. All of our classes are having their Christmas Parties, and students can wear a Christmas/Holiday T-shirt and jeans! The students are also going to get to sing Christmas carols together before their parties start!


Tuesday, December 20th- ½ day of school, and we dismiss at 11:00 a.m. Our students can wear jeans and an Ezell T-shirt or Christmas/Holiday T-shirt.


BREAKING NEWS!!
I have decided that after the holiday break during that first full week I will be coming to school dressed as Fancy Nancy. Fancy Nancy is the character who won the most money during the book fair this year. We collected this money to help Hands on Nashville. Thank you for your support!


That is everything I have for you all before the break. Let us reflect on those special Christmases and remember that it was not the presents that made it special, but the laughter, the feeling of love, and the togetherness of friends and family that makes Christmas special. Have a wonderful Holiday Break!
