Congrats and Thank you for volunteering to be part of the school improvement team!!
1st graders enjoyed a field trip to the Carolina Theater to see âBehind the Scenes of The Nutcrackerâ and had a great time!
Check out some ERA students artwork in downtown Hillsborough! Three of the entries in the gingerbread competition are for our National Arts Honor Society students (Austin G., Stella B., Lauren M., Kathryn K., and Sophia L.) and we could use the votes of the masses! If you want to see the art in person, it is at Nomad, Proven, and Caldwell banking buildings! Thanks

We Want to Hear From You!
As part of our ongoing commitment to belonging, communication, and strong school-family partnerships, we are inviting all families to complete our Campus Family Experience Survey. Your feedback helps us understand what is going well and where we can continue to growâespecially in areas like school climate, communication, Good Things, Social Contracts, and student support.
The survey takes just a few minutes, and your input directly informs our next steps.
Thank you for partnering with us to make ERA better every day!
