Parents: remember, it's a big job. We encourage you to remind your children to do their part by being neat around their seats, picking up after themselves, and making sure litter makes it into the proper containers. These small actions show their appreciation and help our custodians focus on the important work they do every day.
Thank you to our amazing “clean team!”
Our principals do so much more than lead the school day—they build relationships, champion our students, support our staff, solve problems, celebrate successes, and help make our schools places where everyone can grow and belong.
Thank you to Ellenville Elementary School Principal Nicole Ey and Ellenville Junior/Senior High School Principals Kerri Galloway and Carl Pabón for your leadership, dedication, and commitment to our students and community.
We appreciate all you do—this month and every month!
From organizing special events and school celebrations to creating fun experiences and supporting our classrooms, our PTO is always finding ways to strengthen our school community. We are so grateful for the time, energy, and heart they bring to our schools!

During Color Week at Ellenville Elementary School, students in Jennifer Budd’s Kindergarten class brought learning to life with a colorful Skittles experiment! Students explored how colors interact while making observations, asking questions, and enjoying some sweet science fun along the way.
