We Appreciate You:
Celebrating National Gratitude Month at EA |
|
|
As November unfolds, we find ourselves immersed in the spirit of National Gratitude Month, a time to reflect on and appreciate the many blessings in our lives. At Erskine Academy, we couldn't be more grateful for the incredible students, dedicated staff, and supportive community that make our school a special place of learning and growth.
Gratitude for Our Students: Our students are the heart and soul of Erskine Academy. They inspire us with their enthusiasm for learning, their resilience in the face of challenges, and their boundless potential. Every day, they bring vitality and vibrancy to our school, reminding us why we do what we do.
Appreciation for Our Staff: Our staff, from teachers and administrators to support personnel, play an integral role in shaping the Erskine Academy experience. Their passion for education, dedication to our students, and tireless efforts behind the scenes make our school a welcoming and nurturing environment.
Community Connection: The Erskine Academy community extends beyond our campus, encompassing parents, guardians, alumni, and local supporters. We are profoundly grateful for the collaborative spirit and enduring partnerships among us.
This National Gratitude Month and beyond, we celebrate the incredible people who make our school an exceptional place. Thank you for being a part of our Erskine Academy family-- we are grateful for you.

Non-perishable food items include canned goods such as vegetables, cranberry sauce, pie mix or fillings, soups, and fruit; dry goods such as stuffing mix, instant potatoes, gravy mix, corn bread or pie crust mix, cake and brownie mix, macaroni, and crackers; and miscellaneous items such as white/brown/powdered sugar, pudding mix, dried spices and baking supplies, chicken/beef/vegetable stock, honey and maple syrup, and oatmeal.
