Good Afternoon Swansfield,
On behalf of the entire staff we want to thank all of our families for attending our orientations and meet & greets today. The building was full of energy and we can’t wait for the students to join us on Monday morning. As we prepare for the return of students, I wanted to share a few reminders for all families:
Please review your Family File this weekend and make sure that all information is accurate. Directions on completing your Family File are below.
If there is a change to your child’s dismissal, please make sure this is done by 2:45pm. A phone call to the office is the requirement to ensure we get the message.
If you plan to park near the pool and walk across the bridge to pick up your children each afternoon, they will be considered walkers. Therefore, you should meet them on the blacktop.
This school year the PTA and school will alternate weekly newsletters. Please consider joining the PTA as they do an amazing job of supporting all SES staff and students.
I hope you have a relaxing and restful weekend and we look forward to opening our doors for the 24-25 school year on Monday.
Sincerely,
Anthony J Esposito, Principal

FARMS Forms
Many HCPSS families are eligible to participate in the Free and Reduced Price Meals (FARMs) program, which provides children with a wide range of benefits including free or discounted college tuition, testing and application fees, academic and athletic program fees and many others in addition to free or discounted meals.
In addition, SES is a Title I school; this means we receive extra funds to support learning. PLEASE complete the FARMS application. We use these funds for additional staff, family programming, student activities and much more. Our Title I status is based on the percentage of families who qualify for FARMS.
Families are urged to check their eligibility and complete a FARMs application as soon as possible. Families must submit a new application every school year.
Details on the Free and Reduced Meals program, including a link to apply, are available online.
Please contact the front office if you have any questions or need assistance with applying for the Free and Reduced Meal Program.
