Week of May 4, 2026
Feliz Primavera para Todos! Happy Spring to All!

Happy Cinco de Mayo, or 5th of May, tomorrow! May all who celebrate the day enjoy this holiday Taco Tuesday.

Let's also take a moment to celebrate May as Speech and Hearing Awareness Monthwww.asha.org/national-speech-language-hearing-month—which raises awareness about communication disorders and the importance of speech, language, and hearing health.

And we would be remiss if we were to omit National Teacher Appreciation Month. This entire week the PTO is celebrating our amazing-wonderful-fabulous-outstanding ECLC staff—from teachers to paras and aides, all the admins, and more (including our principal...we see, you Mr. Killian!)—to thank them all from the bottom of our collective hearts for the love and dedication they show in helping us teach, lead, guide, and care for our beloved students.

Thank you to everyone who contributed with either food or monetary donations as well as anyone volunteering their time this week to celebrate ECLC–Chatham's staff.

In Search Of...Anyone Interested?

The PTO is looking for a new chair for the Upper School Socials. Anyone interested in helping should contact the PTO Co-Presidents.

We want to extend our utmost thanks to Jen Enderlin for her tireless and selfless support running these events for, how many years now? The PTO is eternally grateful for everything she has done for our kids. We are sorry to see her leave, but kids have to graduate sometime, so congratulations on the next step in life! We are fortunate to have been part of the family's journey.
