While at ESS, your child will have the opportunity to grow academically, socially, and physically. ESS offers a wide variety of extracurricular activities for your child to participate in throughout the school year.
We offer academic competitions for students to compete in. The competitions this year will include a CHESS and SPEECH competition for our 3rd through 5th grade students.
Other expanded learning opportunities, including robotics, fine and performing arts, music, coding and more will be offered at every ESS program. Please speak to your ESS Site Lead for more information about program offerings.
Fifth-grade ESS students will have the chance to experience JA BizTown ™. This amazing program introduces students to economics and business through classroom instruction (provided by your ESS staff). For one day the students become adults and operate a life-size mini-municipality complete with a bank, City Hall, professional offices, radio station, T.V. station, businesses, a snack shop, and a community charity. They become doctors, business managers, real estate agents, philanthropists, and accountants. The JA BizTown ™ curriculum addresses the California State Standards and makes learning relevant for students.
This year, our seventh and eighth-grade students will get to participate in Finance Park.
