The collection boxes are in the school foyer, and our children are eager to fill them. Please consider sending in your contributions as early as possible; it encourages everyone when they see how well we are doing on the bar graphs and in the overflowing boxes.This year our community is supporting both Children Helping Poor and Homeless People (CHPHP) and the Ocean Park Community Center (OPCC).

MONDAY NOVEMBER 17TH DROP OFF CHANGE
Please note that carpool drop-off for grades PK-5 will be held at the side entrance IN the faculty parking lot instead of the circle drive at the front of school. This is so important that we underlined the whole sentence. This change is due to the departure of the 6th grade overnight trip to Pali.Please enter the parking lot as usual but be aware that faculty will be stationed to unload children at the doors at the end of the K/1st grade hallway.Afternoon pickup will be held in the circle drive as usual.HOLIDAY GIFT PROGRAM
Thanks to the many parents who promptly sent in money for the Holiday Gift program! This is an easy and much-appreciated way to thank our great teachers, aides, specialists, and staff. Remember, the deadline to contribute is December 4th.Any questions, please contact Jennifer Roggenkamp at jennifer.roggenkamp@gmail.com.SCHOOL PHOTOS
School photos of your toothless darlings are ready! Click here http://www.enjoyphotos.com for the website and then enter username EHS-2014 and password 4918214. If you have any questions, contact Lainez Photography at (310)569-5994 or eddie@lainezphotography.com.LOST & FOUND
Please remember to check the Lost and Found rack upstairs in the multi-purpose room for those Silly Bandz and socks that never seem to make it home from school. All items that remain unclaimed will be donated at the end of the term (before Winter Break)(although maybe this was your secret plan all along to get rid of the Silly Bandz??).Looking forward to seeing you on Saturday and have a great looooong weekend!Your Room Parents
