Essex Elementary School Celebrates China Day!

2nd and 3rd grade students recently practiced martial arts, made paper lanterns and learned new letters during China Day at Essex Elementary School. The celebration, funded by the Essex Elementary School Foundation’s Justus W. Paul World Cultures Program, included activities with Asian Performing Arts of Connecticut and Malee’s School of Tae Chi.

EESF is looking for your support. The not-for-profit, volunteer organization provides funds for enrichment programs that bring a mathematician and historian-in-residence into the classrooms, as well as an iPad lab and author visits.
