Message from the Principal
Dear Parents/ Guardians/ Students,
As we begin to organize for the 2012-2013 school year, there are many things to consider. It is critical that we
have an accurate student count so that we can begin to designate grade and class placements. If you are moving
out of our area or if you know of someone moving into the EPESCS area, please contact us immediately. Keep in
mind that we have an excellent teaching staff at EPESCS. Therefore, any parental requests for specific class
placements must be made in writing by June 1, 2012. Please include specific educational reasons for the request
and send it to the office. Also be aware that these requests will be shared among staff members as we design the
classrooms for next year. When designing class placements, we work collaboratively in order to provide a balanced
approach. For example, we take into consideration the students strengths, the teacher’s style, the number of
males and females, difficult social combinations, etc. It is a complex process and one where we spend a great deal
of time.
Liz MacPherson, Principal
