Southside Elementary School

Hello Southside Families! This month, we’re excited to launch our new social-emotional learning (SEL) curriculum, Till360, at Southside. Our first theme is "Get to Know YOU," where we’ll focus on developing self-awareness. We invite you to join us on this journey and explore ways to practice these skills at home with your child.

Good morning, ECSD families and community members! ☀️ Today is the first day of school for all pre-K through 12th-grade students! Please drive slowly and carefully as students will be walking, waiting for buses, and using different routes. Let’s keep everyone safe. 🚌 🚦 Important Reminders: 📆 ECSD schools operate on a four-day schedule. Most start times remain the same as last year, but please check with your student’s school or visit our Back-to-School Information page: https://www.ecsdnv.net/page/back-to-school-information Due to the Labor Day holiday on Monday, school will be in session next Friday, September 6th. We’ll send reminders. 📱 Stay connected by downloading the Elko County School District App from Google Play or the Apple App Store. Make sure a guardian's phone number in Infinite Campus can receive text messages to get district-wide alerts! Let’s make this school year the best yet! At ECSD, our students Grow Here and go Anywhere!

Don't forget tonight is open house from 4:30-6:00 pm. See ya tonight!

Future Runners, The EHS Cross Country Team is hosting a youth running camp June 10-14th from 9-10am at the EHS track. We are working hard to help build the running program at the high school by bridging the gap between younger runners & the beginning of their high school experience. This camp will be a fun way to introduce youth to the fundamentals of running, stretching, goal setting & healthy habits! All registration proceeds will go to help fund the 2024 EHS Cross Country Team this fall.
