K for a Day was a huge success! Future Pirates worked out with Mr. Marvin, met their future teachers, participated in several activities, and received a free book after taking a bus ride and playing outside.











Eby hosted K for a Day welcoming future pirates! Pete the Pirate and Mr. Graham attended the event along with Natalie Riley from True Community and Vicki Salsbury from the Jackson District Library.











Miss Jackson Crossroads, Payton Perry-Radcliffe, visits the kids in Mrs. Smith's first grade classroom to talk with them, read a book, and discuss her title and what is expected of her during her reign.

EBY SPRING CARNIVAL

5:00 PM TO 7:00 PM


Eby Hat Day, Friday, April 11th! Bring a $1, wear a hat, and support our American Cancer Society Relay for Life!

Dear Ezra Eby Families and Friends,
We are beginning our annual collection for the American Cancer Society Ezra Eby Mini-Relay for Life. Our goal is to raise at least $1,000 through the sale of Relay for Life donation cards. These donation cards will be displayed in our cafeteria hallway. Students may sell the attached donation card for $1 and return it to school by May 7, 2025. Additional cards are also available to sell; please contact abbie.denning@napoleonschools.org for more information.
If you would like to donate with a check, please make it payable to the American Cancer Society. All money collected goes directly to the American Cancer Society.
Our Mini-Relay for Life will take place on Friday, May 9th at 2:30 p.m. at the track behind Eby. If you (or a member of your family) are a cancer survivor and would like to be honored in the first lap of the walk, please fill out the form on the back of this letter and return it to your child’s teacher no later than Monday, May 5th, so that a list of walkers can be formulated. We invite anyone who is interested to come and join us at the track. You will be inspired by our caring student body at Napoleon. Once again, thank you for helping those who need a cure!
Sincerely,
Ezra Eby Elementary Staff
