School may have been closed on Friday, but the show must go on! Three of our amazing 5th grade chorus members attended the NHMEA Elementary Honors Festival! Allie, Leah, and Emma did a fantastic job performing with other 4th-6th grade chorus members from around the state.!
Despite getting ready in the dark that morning and with very little notice, Mrs. Bolduc stepped in to co-present an outstanding session on Folk Dancing when the original presenter became unexpectedly ill!
Way to go Ellis Eagles! Congratulations on a job well done!

Good Evening - SAU 83 will start with a 2 hr delay tomorrow - Friday, April 5th. There will be no AM pre-k. We will reassess the road conditions and power situation in the early morning and will send out another alert if we need to cancel school. For now, we will have a 2 hr. delay and no AM pre-K.
Where would we be without our wonderful paraeducators? We are so lucky to have you all! Happy Paraprofessional Appreciation Day!

EARLY RELEASE APRIL 8th
Dear Ellis School, Parents, Guardians, Staff, and Community Members,
Ellis School is making the following change to its schedule for the week of April 8th:
We are switching our early release date from Wednesday, April 10 to Monday, April 8th, 2024.
This decision was made with our students’ wellbeing in mind as well as the extraordinary celestial event taking place that day.
Many parents have reached out to request a half day to experience the solar eclipse with their children. In addition, the eclipse will be at its highest obscuration at 3:28 p.m., which coincides with when our students will be in the middle of transitioning from school and could put students at risk of eye injuries.
Many of our classes will be doing eclipse-related educational activities with our students and protective eyewear will be provided to all of our students and staff.
Again – April 8th will be an early release day. April 10th will be a regular school day.
The Ellis School track team starts their season this afternoon! The track team will be using the fields and playgrounds most days after school until 4:30. Please note that the fields and back roadway are closed to the public when the track team is practicing.
Please join us in wishing Mrs. Rosenberg a happy Assistant Principal's Week! We are grateful for all that you do!
The Ellis School 8th grade class is hosting the 19th Annual Spaghetti Supper on 4/13.

Yesterday, our fourth graders in Mrs. Gauthier and Ms. Georato's classrooms took a trip to Concord to visit the State House. Not only were they escorted through their tour by Representative Yokela, Governor Sununu paused his cabinet meeting to introduce himself and shake hands with each and every fourth grader. A field trip to remember!
Learners in Mrs. Gobeil's classroom have been following the Iditarod throughout the month of March. Last Friday they welcomed town resident and Alaska expert, Mr. Townsend to share photographs, taxidermy and a wealth of information! As always, his great bear rug was the best part of the presentation! Thank you for always making time for our third graders, Mr. Townsend.
In between CPR training, literacy data analysis, standards and competency alignment, rubric building and several other tasks, our educators came together to enjoy a pot luck luncheon. It was the perfect opportunity to reconnect over platefuls of delicious dishes. Thank you for all of your hard work today, Ellis Educators!
