As early as the first month of school, chronic absence (missing 10 percent or more of school days) can be an early warning sign of academic trouble. Children who miss too much school in kindergarten and first grade often struggle to read proficiently by the end of third grade. Please help us minimize lost instructional time. We teach bell to bell, so late arrivals and early checkouts matter, too! Every child. Every day. All day.
Elementary Families: Please save the date for our annual Title I Family Night! SEPTEMBER 12 (4:00-5:30) <<>>

Hello there! My name is Tracy Trottier and I have lived in Northwest Arkansas since 2018. I am from Washington state and have always loved the outdoors. When I am not at my farm tending my chickens, you can find me down on the white river fishing for trout and/or kayaking. I also love to bake home-made cookies, pies, and cakes and am known to bring my wares into the workplace to share. I have three adult children and 9 grandchildren that live in other states, so I do a lot of traveling when time allows. I am very excited to be part of the ESSD family, and will be working as a Paraprofessional in the Elementary school.

I am looking forward to wonderful years working with precious children.

Elementary Families: The car rider line is just past the elementary school entrance on the right. Parents may start lining up at 2:40 with student dismissal starting at 2:50.

Bus riders will be dismissed after car riders. Please be patient at the bus stops, as we may be a few minutes late these first few days.
