Dear Families:
The school year is rapidly coming to a close. Just a reminder, according to School Board Policy, your childcare balance must be paid in full in order for you to receive your child’s report card. In order to make this as easy as possible, we will send out statements on Wednesday, May 20th. This statement will include all charges through Tuesday, May 19th. Any remaining balances will be sent home in a statement the morning of May 21st. You may estimate your charges for Wednesday and Thursday morning and pay ahead. You are able to carry a credit balance into the summer or the next school year. Our office will be open for you to make payments until 11:30 a.m. and again before and after the graduation service. Feel free to contact Laurie Kamin with any questions or concerns (244-3045).
Thank you. Childcare

SOCCER/BIBLE CAMP-COMMUNITY CANVASSPart of Eastside’s mission is to “tell of Jesus’ love.”  Our second annual Soccer/Bible Camp, entitled “The Wonderful Cross” is a perfect way to do just that.  In order to get the word out to our community, we are having a canvass on Saturday morning, May 16th, from 9:30 a.m. – Noon.  No “Apostle Paul evangelism skills” are necessary; just two functioning legs and a desire to connect our neighbors to their Savior.  We will pass out camp brochures and then enjoy a pizza lunch together back at Eastside.  Please help us reach our goal of 80 kids at this year’s camp.  See you on May 16th!
