Escondido Elementary School

Good afternoon out of precaution, we went into a secure. We followed protocol and everyone on campus is safe. Our secure has been released, and we will resume with business as usual.

Good afternoon, families, we are currently in a secure. Please follow our secure protocol. I will send out more information as soon as I can.

The Apex Team would like to do a surprise, bonus weekend challenge for the school! For this challenge, we'll be looking at participation. Every student logged in, each share and each pledge will count as 1 participation point each. If a class reaches 100% logged in, they'll gain 10 extra points. On Monday we'll pick the class with the most participation from each grade level and they will earn a Winter Wonderland experience with Apex!

Parents, please see the attached correspondence and instructions for the federal impact aid form.
