Dear Families,

If you are new to the district or have an incoming kindergartner this fall, please enroll your child at the Board Office over the summer. The Board Office is located at 7273 Wing Lake Rd. Bloomfield Hills, MI 48301. Here is the link for more information about the enrollment process and instructions: http://www.bloomfield.org/why-bloomfield

New this year is the online registration process to start the school year. We will still have our registration fair dates in the fall, the dates are listed below. The process has been made easier because all the documents are available and can be completed online through MyBloomfield. See the article below called "online back to school registration process."

If your child is in third or fourth grade and will be moving on to East Hills, please go into your MyBloomfield account and start getting Mr. Rubel's newsletter so that you know about upcoming important events and dates. You can also check the transition site for further information. There are links on the Eastover main webpage and the East Hills main web page to the transition information.

Thank you everyone for a great school year and for blessing us with your children this year. It was an amazing school year. On behalf of the staff we wish you a safe and restful summer vacation.

Dear Families:

The students at Eastover will need some help with summer maintenance in the garden. A sign-up has been created so your family can schedule time to come to Eastover and help weed the garden. If you sign up for a week, please try to come to school at least twice. You may come any day and any time of the week you sign up for (ignore the 8:00 am-4:00 pm).

Don't let the sign-up hold you back! If you are out for a bike ride, on your way home from baseball or have extra time before a play date, stop by! There will always be a few weeds to pull out.

We are adding the following incentives to garden helpers this summer.

1. Every child that helps in the garden over the summer will receive a SOAR card in September. A date stamped photo of the child/ren in the garden can be sent to jgoldschmidt@bloomfield.org 2. Would you like to eat lunch with Mrs. Crocker in September? That opportunity will be offered to the child/ren who have worked in the garden the most this summer. Again, please send a date stamped photo of your child/ren working in the garden to jgoldschmidt@bloomfield.org. The winner or winners will be announced the first week of school.

Bonus: If you see some ripe produce that won't last until school resumes, feel free to take it home and make something delicious!

The students and staff appreciate all you do and look forward to a plentiful harvest in September!
