We had such a wonderful week! We started with Monday "Anything but a Backpack Day". Students were very creative with their choices, and had so much fun.

Students have been great keeping track of time to get to class. We thank you parents and want to keep asking to remind them the importance and responsibility of being on time to every class.

We wrapped up the week with Halloween costumes all around campus. Barbies, Athletes, Star Wars and even Starbucks drinks costumes visible around the school.

We also had our 8th gr. field trip to the U of A Agricultural Research Center. This field trip was part of the science classes. They were covering the genetics unit, focusing on cow musculature. Students were able to transfer their knowledge to a real world application.

A big thank you to the families who have already purchased a Bashas’ gift card! If you haven’t grabbed one yet, it’s not too late. Each $10 reloadable card works like a prepaid debit card, and every time you reload it, Esperero earns 6% back to support our school. Cards can be purchased by sending payment via Zelle to ecmsffotreasurer@gmail.com or by dropping off cash or a check (ECMS FFO) at the front office.

Thank you for your support!

We Need Your Support! The FFO is excited to assist the ECMS Administration to help plan a number of promotion festivities to honor our students' hard work and success. To make these celebrations memorable, we are asking each family to contribute to the promotion expenses. A donation of $40 per 8th grade student is suggested, but any amount you can offer will be greatly appreciated and will directly support the events.

Donation of $40 per student helps cover ceremony expenses, promotion party, dinner, entertainment, and an ice cream social.

Payment Options:

Additional Contributions: Because not all families have the financial ability to contribute, consider helping our efforts by contributing an additional amount. 

Additional contributions of any amount are welcome.

Please contact community schools at jnoyce@cfsd16.org for Quarter 2 schedule questions.
