Dear Elms Families:
Thank you all so very much for taking the time to come in and write and/or create such positive notes and posters for your children. The response was truly overwhelming, and we were so touched by your participation! The students were absolutely thrilled to see their personalized messages and artwork displayed as they walked into their classrooms. Their excitement was palpable, and it made such a positive start to their day.
We also want to extend a special thank you to the thoughtful parents who created postcards for other students. Your kindness and generosity in supporting all our learners is deeply appreciated. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for all that you did to help prepare our students for the MSTEP testing. Your encouragement and positive reinforcement made a significant difference.

Dear Parents,
Our Lost & Found has become incredibly full with winter belongings, and we need your help! Before we head into Spring Break today, we are inviting all families to come to the school to claim any of their child's missing items.
We have accumulated so many clothes that our racks are overflowing. We would be very grateful if you could stop by.
The school will be open until 4:00 PM today for you to come and look through the Lost & Found.
Please make every effort to come and retrieve your child's belongings. Anything unclaimed after today will be stored, but we would prefer to get these items back to their owners before the break.
Thank you for your cooperation!
