TODAY IS THE DAY! 😃
We are thrilled to welcome our families to Open House! Come on in to meet teachers, say hello to classmates, and drop off school supplies to make the first day a breeze. Students will love setting up their new locker for their jacket, bag, and extra clothes for playground or lunchroom mishaps.
We can't wait to see all of your bright faces today!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARENTS & GUARDIANS OF EAST JAY ELEMENTARY
Good Afternoon,
We would like to inform you that our SchoolPass system is now ready for families to use. This system is used at East Jay and East Elementary to manage and communicate dismissal changes and attendance (tardy, absences, or early dismissal).
If you are a returning student, please make sure your child’s dismissal default (their daily dismissal) matches what you completed at registration. If the student’s plan is no longer accurate, you must login to the website to update the default. Bus information will not be able to be changed by parents. If you have a change that is needed related to bussing you will need to contact your child's school. If you do not remember your password, please click the "forgot password" link and follow the instructions.
If you are making a change to the permanent default, please log into the website to update the default. Permanent changes should not be made through the app. Please do not mark it as a change for the year. If you are having difficulty, please contact the school office.
If you are new to SchoolPass, please log in to your SchoolPass WEB account first to update your password BEFORE using the Parent-Student mobile app.
If you need help please go to the following link for general FAQ’s.

The end of the year is coming up FAST! Take note of the dates for our year-end activities.

East Elementary and East Jay are coming together to support one of our families.
Students at East Jay have a younger sibling, Isabella, at East Elementary who has recently been diagnosed with leukemia. This is a difficult time for their family, and we want them to feel the strength and care of our school community.
We are collecting monetary donations to help with travel expenses as they visit her at Riley and for any upcoming appointments and treatments. If you are able to give, any amount is appreciated and will go directly to supporting the family.
If you don’t have a student at either building but would still like to contribute, please feel free to stop by the office between 7:30 AM and 4:00 PM, Monday through Friday.
Thank you for keeping this family in your thoughts and for always showing such kindness and support.
