We have had another amazing week of learning, here at E.A. White Elementary! Our Lions have been busy diving into engaging lessons, building friendships, and exploring new ideas. From classrooms filled with curiosity to hallways roaring with excitement, learning was truly alive this week!
A special highlight was the hosting of our first Parent University for this school year which focused on back-to-school awareness and the many resources available to support our students and families. Thank you to all the parents and guardians who joined us in person and online – your partnership makes a world of difference! We’re already looking forward to our next session on November 4, where we’ll explore Building Critical Thinkers in Reading and Math. Mark your calendars!
Looking ahead to next week, we have some exiting events taking place!
Book Fair, sponsored by our PTO – All week long! Students will have the opportunity to explore a wide selection of books and ignite their love for reading.
Family Night at the Book Fair – Join us on Thursday, September 18, from 4:00-6:00 PM for an evening of stories, shopping, and fun!
U.S. Constitution Day Celebration – On Wednesday, September 17, all our Lions will celebrate this important historical day by signing our very own school pledge, honoring the values of citizenship and community. The E.A. White Elementary School Pledge will then be proudly displayed for all to see!
Thank you for being an essential part of our school family. We hope you all have a safe and joyful weekend!
In Partnership,
Mrs. Thorne, Principal
Mrs. Enyeart, Assistant Principal
Tip from the Front Office
We want to remind everyone that a valid photo ID is required when checking out students from school. This policy helps us ensure that only authorized individuals are picking up children.
Even if you're a familiar face at E.A. White Elementary, please understand that the person working the front desk may not always know you. Staff assignments can change from day to day, and we cannot rely on recognition alone when it comes to student safety. Showing your ID helps us follow proper procedures and protect all students.
Also, please remember that student check-outs end at 2:45 p.m., unless approved by the principal for extenuating circumstances.
Thank you for helping us maintain a safe and secure environment.
2024-2025 School Meal Benefits Grace Period Ending Soon!
Families who received free or reduced meals in the 2024–2025 school year must reapply by September 29, 2025 to keep their benefits for 2025–2026.
Many parents think their previous meal status automatically continues. It does, but only during the grace period, which ends on September 29, 2025. After that, families must reapply to keep their free or reduced benefits.

Today is the final day to submit your name if you're interested in serving on our School Advisory Committee. Please complete the School Advisory Committee Parent Nomination Form by Friday, September 12, 2025.
