No Joke, Emerson Will Be Ready!

For the past two days the electricity, internet and phone systems have only worked intermitently. Today a load of manure was dumped just a few feet from the front office door. Really! It was not my idea of an opening-of-the-school-year prank for Mrs. Marie and Mrs. Gina either. It really was just soil ammendment for the new median in the parking lot. Despite all of the work still underway, we will be ready for students on Monday, August 23 to start school.

Last year you may remember that we officially started this construction project by (unfortunately)scaring the new kindergarten students with jackhammers on the first day of school. While I can't promise that we won't have any disruptions this year on the first day, we are making sure that the campus is safe.

For the rest of this week, the front parking lot still may not be accessible due to landscaping, fencing, and the re-striping of the parking lot. If you need to visit the office, please park across the street or enter the school through the utility gate where the "temporary school entrance" is displayed. The soil ammendments' (manure) smell won't be quite as strong if you enter from that side of campus! :)

Even though the construction work is not complete, we can tolerate a few inconveniences because we are excited about all of the benefits that the project will bring, right?
