We hope you are all doing well this week. We have a lot of exciting events happening this week in our school! Please see below for more details and announcements.
Teacher Appreciation Week
Thank you all for the generous donations we received in the past couple weeks! One more thing to make this a special week is to share our notes of appreciation for our teachers & staff at AEA. Parents and students are welcome to email the PTA their personal notes, and we will post them up for our teachers and staff to see. See here for more details.
Picture Day Remote Sessions
The last chance to participate in Picture Day this year is through remote sessions starting this week from May 3rd through May 9th. If you haven’t already, please make your bookings ASAP as they must be booked 48 hours in advance.
See here to learn about the remote process and how to prepare.
Pictures from Picture Days (4/20 & 4/27) will be ready to view around May 10th. You will receive an email from either Stomping Ground or the PTA with information. Group class composites will not be available to view.
PTA May General Meeting:
We invite you to join our next PTA General Meeting on May 20 at 7pm where we will be holding elections for our next PTA Board and School Leadership Team (SLT)! Please RSVP here.
School Safety Committee Town Hall Meeting
The school will be holding their annual Safety Committee Town Hall Meeting on May 4 at 2pm. This is an optional meeting where parents are invited to join the safety committee in discussing various safety issues, protocols, and procedures within the school. Please see the school’s email for Zoom info.
1st Day School Supplies
We are partnering with 1st Day School Supplies again this year to help make purchasing school supplies for next year super easy! If you’d like get an early start to buying school supplies for next year, you can start placing your orders now with the deadline being July 1, 2021. A reminder that this is completely optional, you do NOT have to purchase through 1st Day Schools Supplies if you do not want to. You may purchase your school supplies elsewhere once the teachers make the supplies list available. This is purely an option for those who’d prefer to have the convenience of doing so. Please see the previous email for more details.
Thank you!
Thanks to all our families who participated in last week’s Aigner Chocolates Golden Ticket fundraiser. Our families bought almost 70 chocolate bars for the week along with other yummy goodies! Congratulations to all our Golden Ticket winners who won prizes supporting our local businesses! We will formally announce the winners and fundraiser totals later in the week.

The CEC elections have begun and will be running until May 11! This is the first time that parents can vote directly for their preferred candidate. Please see the previous email for FAQs and additional details.
