Celebrating Our March Eagle Award Winners!

Way to go, Ellis Eagles! 🦅

Just before Spring Break, we gathered to celebrate our Ellis Eagles for their incredible hard work throughout the month of March! Each classroom honored one student in the following categories: Literacy, Math, English Language Development, Specials, and Leadership. We also recognized all of our Eagles with perfect attendance, who celebrated their commitment with a pizza party!

We look forward to our next celebration! April Eagle Awards will be held on April 24.

☕ Pastries with the Principal

You're invited! We are happy to welcome your family to school to meet our new Principal, Mr. Anthony Muñiz! Starting the day together is a wonderful way to build our community, and we’d love to see you there.

We have two upcoming times for you to connect with our leadership, share your feedback, and get to know our new principal:

Monday, April 27th

Join us from 7:30-8:30 after student drop off. We look forward to seeing you there!
