April was an absolute blast at the EEC! We had such a great time celebrating the Week of the Young Child; the kids and teachers enjoyed dressing up in fun outfits every day, and had fun themed activities each day!

Spring has truly blossomed at the EEC! The kids had an amazing time hunting for eggs in the preschool yard—it was such a joyful sight! They also pitched in to plant some new treasures in our garden, including a lovely lemon tree - how exciting!

Looking ahead to May, we’re excited to celebrate our amazing teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week, which kicks off the week of May 5.

May is also Asian American and Pacific Islander Month! We’d love to invite parents or family members to come in and share their culture with us. Whether it’s giving a presentation, reading a book, doing a fun project, or bringing in a special snack or dish, we’d be thrilled to have you join us!

Here are a few friendly reminders for May:

- We will close early on May 2 at 4:00 PM for a staff meeting.

- Please remember we’ll be closed on Monday, May 26, for Memorial Day.

Thanks for being such a wonderful part of our community!

🌷 Stay bloomin’ and keep springin’ ! 🌞
