Can you believe it? It is already time to start talking about high school transition with our eighth graders!
We are very fortunate that our students have the choice between two high schools, Epping High School and Pinkerton Academy. In the fall, our students get to learn more about both high schools so that they can make a more informed high school decision.
We would like to thank Epping High School for presenting to our students today about their programs and resources! We look forward to our upcoming presentation from Pinkerton as well.

Last week, Miss Wood's class welcomed a special delivery of two giant pumpkins from a local farm. We are so excited to have more pumpkins to add to our fall gardens. Thank you, Miss Wood!
We also had the opportunity to welcome the Fremont Fire Department to Ellis School last week! Our firefighter guests shared information about fire safety, what firefighters do when they respond to a fire, and what their equipment looks like. Then, our students got to check out the fire truck! Thank you, Fremont Fire Department. We love this tradition!
Last week, our third graders were able to continue our third grade library visit tradition! Thanks to Mr. Eric and Ms. Cheryl, our students were able to listen to a story by a New Hampshire author about bats, check out all of the amazing resources the library has to offer, get a library card, and check out some books. We love the library and are so grateful for our fantastic Fremont Library staff! Thanks Fremont Public Library!

Discovering strengths. Exploring possibilities. Planning for the future!
Yesterday, we welcomed Granite Edvance to Ellis School to introduce our eighth-grade students to YouScience—a program that helps students discover their natural abilities, explore their interests, and connect those strengths with possible future careers!
Through interactive “brain games” and an interest profile, students can learn more about what they’re naturally good at—including strengths they may not have recognized yet! Their results help them explore careers and the education or training that can lead to those opportunities.
For families, this offers a meaningful starting point for conversations about your child’s strengths, interests, and future possibilities. Our goal is to encourage curiosity, build confidence, and help students see the many paths available to them as they prepare for high school and beyond.
Thank you, Granite Edvance, for helping our students take this exciting first step!

Did you know that last week was National Assisted Living Week?! We celebrated with our neighbors at Colonial Poplin and Poplin Way last Wednesday and had so much fun.

We can't wait to see you again soon for our October parade!
Our middle school students have been hard at work in our gardens! Last week, they harvested a number of vegetables and were able to use their harvest to make homemade salsa! They also harvested their pumpkins. Have you seen our giant pumpkin at the front of the school?
