Cookware Campaign
Dear First Grade Parents:
As you already know, ESAA Teachers are extremely creative when it comes to finding learning opportunities for your child(ren). Ms. Marzouki’s students have always enjoyed cooking and applying their reading skills to following a recipe. In order to increase their learning-fun and minimize the impact on school staff, we are in need of some gently used cookware for student use in the school kitchen. Announcing our first ever….
