READY TO GO....by Kathy Travis

The summer flew by but I am so excited to get started this year.  I received an honor at the back to school teacher meeting for my 25 years of service.  My biggest hope that in all my years I have left "footprints" .  I was also recognized for being the teacher of the quarter from last year.  As I got my award at the board meeting, one of my former students was also receiving that award for her building.  That makes me proud.  As I looked around the room yesterday at our back to school meeting, I noticed that several students were back teaching in this district.  ESSD is a great place to be as a teacher and a student!

I am excited about the new administration.  Ben Rubey is our Principal with Kacie Pennington Ambrose and Doug Baker as Assistant Principals.  Mr. Mason returned as counselor but we have added Kelsey Shook as a counselor.  Our staff basically remained the same with 3 new teachers added to include Heather Taylor in sixth grade, Joel Mathews in seventh grade social studies, and Courtney Mayle in eighth grade.  #esmsbestyearever

I am super excited for Techsperts and WEB.  These are two programs I am proud to be a part of!!!  The kids work hard and support our school.  Look for announcements and information about both throughout the year!

Okay TIGERS....Let's get this started in here!  See you in the morning!
