As of right now, school will be in session as normal tomorrow. Just a reminder, our take-in time is 7:15am and our instructional day begins at 7:45am. ERD students must be in proper school uniform but may wear non-uniform winter jackets, hats and gloves so that they stay warm. Hoodies are also acceptable during the next few days; however, students will be asked to remove them while in the building. If we receive any additional information or weather updates, we will post them on social media and send out messages via SMS messaging.

We want to personally thank all the families who have already participated in our Reading for Education fundraiser! We are on our way to reaching our goal, but we need everyone's help to make sure our teachers get the essential tools they need to help our students succeed.

If your family has not participated, there's still time!

This safe and easy fundraiser is 100% online so there is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. Your child will receive a prize just for participating, and more prizes will be awarded when goals are reached.

Please help now. It really will make a difference.

Go to https://www.rfe.net/sid.t?0000012923 to show our valued teachers your support.

Thanks,
E.R. Dickson Elementary School
