Elliott Latest News
This year will be the first time a Legacy student will be recognized at Elliott Elementary. Students in 5th grade had the opportunity to apply as a Legacy student for Elliott based on their impact on their community and those around them. Up to two students will be selected and will have a photo board displayed in our school and be recognized within the district. This year we had four students submit applications. Those students were Belinda Santiago, Iden Akoto-Wiafe, Alexander Selix and Lilyan Terreault. The final two students will be acknowledged this week and have an opportunity to be recognized at a future board meeting.

We had a great first week back from spring break. Several of our classes were able to take field trips this week to the STEM Center located at John Glenn High School and also the Science Center. Our Elliott Eagles ended the week with our PBIS Assembly and students visiting our Elliott School store.
Starting next week the Student Council will be hosting a Penny Wars from April 8th-19th during lunch. Each teacher will have a container on the stage with their name on it. The idea of a Penny War is to fill your teacher's container with only pennies, which count as a point each, and to fill other containers with silver and dollars, which subtracts from their total. The winning class wins the fun of pieing Mr. Layne on the stage during lunch :) Start saving your pennies!

We are excited as we get ready to welcome our students back from spring break. We are entering the final stretch of the school year. As we move into April our 3rd-5th graders will be taking the M-Step. If you have a student in those grades please make sure they eat a good breakfast and have a good nights rest prior to their test. I have included a letter below in our newsletter.
