We kicked off the week with a delicious Chick-fil-A breakfast, followed by a decadent dessert bar on Tuesday. Wednesday brought a flavorful Sassool luncheon, and Thursday featured mini subs and fresh salads. We wrapped up the week on Friday with a hot and cold coffee bar with a variety of syrups and toppings, and a special treat of Tepuy donuts. We are truly humbled by the generosity of our volunteers, the dedication of our PTSA leadership, and the partnership of our school administration. Thanks to your help, we were able to honor our teachers and show our deep appreciation for their tireless efforts every single day.  With gratitude,Co-Chairs for Teacher Appreciation Week - Zeel Patel and Juliette Grimmett

• FAN DRIVE: It's Getting HOT in Here! Parents, could you purchase a box fan for Enloe? Students and teachers are reporting that as the weather heats up, the A/C can't quite keep up, and classrooms have been trying to share the three fans the school has. It's hard to take exams when you're distracted by heat. We've set up an easy Amazon link -- put the fan in your cart, choose the Enloe/Kasey Wilmers address when you check out, and the fan will be delivered right to the school - easy peasy! You can also purchase a fan on your own or drop off gently used, working fans to the front desk. Teachers say box fans pull the air best, but they appreciate any and all types. Special THANK YOU to those who have already donated a fan!

Fundraiser: Leveling the Playing Field

We’re excited to share that professional field renovation work is now underway at Enloe as part of our “Leveling the Playing Field” campaign — and we want you to know this isn’t just a quick fix. 

We’ve partnered with Eastern Turf Maintenance, a highly experienced athletic field contractor, to lead a full-scale, long-term restoration of both our football stadium and track field. Their work supports some of the top sports fields in the region — and they’re bringing that same expertise to Enloe.

 

 Here’s What’s Happening:

• Professional-grade deep aeration to improve drainage and reduce compaction

• Leveling and topdressing with tons of sand to eliminate ruts and uneven spots

• Sprigging and overseeding for thick, durable turf that lasts

• Ongoing fertilization and weed management to maintain top condition

This is not a patch job. It’s an investment in the safety, performance, and pride of our student-athletes — and it’s designed to last. With approximately 600 student-athletes and over 1,000 physical education students at Enloe, our target is to raise at least $100 per student. This collective effort will make a significant impact on the quality of our sports and outdoor classroom facilities.

 

 

 Where We Stand:

• Goal: $60,000

• Raised so far: $14,575

• Progress: 24.3%

We're off to a good start, but we urgently need your support to stay on track with this project.

 

How You Can Help:

• Make a donation today – every dollar supports real work.

• Share our campaign far and wide, we need all the help we can   get!

• Ask your employer about matching your gift for double the impact

Our students and athletes deserve the best — and with your help, they’ll get it. Thank you for being part of this community effort!
