Pre-Registration Enrollment for 2021-22
EWSD is now accepting registration requests for prekindergarten enrollment for the 2021-2022 school year. Space is limited in our pre-K classrooms and placement is determined by a lottery drawing. The window to submit a registration request will be open until Friday February 26th. Please click on the "Pre-K Lottery Form" button to submit a pre-K registration request.
During the winter months, please send your student to school with:
If students do not have boots and snow pants, they will need to stay on paved areas of the playground during recess. This is done to keep them dry.
Also, please pack shoes for your student to wear inside the school building. Wearing wet snow boots is not only uncomfortable but makes for wet floors, which can lead to injury.
Learn more at Nurse Reyna's blog at the Health Office page.
Need Winter Clothing Items? If you need assistance with obtaining winter gear, please contact Nurse Reyna or Mrs. Grykien.
Health Office: (802) 857-7740.
