STAY CONNECTED
In the past, collecting donations and ordering from a restaurant has been an easy way to fill the gaps in the sign-up.
The Staff Appreciation Committee will purchase the remaining snacks that are needed and cater the lunch with whatever amount comes in, on your behalf.
We are encouraging parents to volunteer during their grade's assigned month... and 1st grade parents, it is almost your turn!
Please consider volunteering to serve lunch one or two days in October. It takes less than an hour!

ECES Fundraiser Programs
✏️ Important Note from the PTO:
This year, we are focusing primarily on community building. With that said, we are still participating in a handful of fundraising programs, most of which are “giving without spending” programs, to benefit the school and our children. The funds raised will be used to gift all students and staff a 2025/2026 Spiritual Theme T-shirt, fulfill items on our teachers' wish-lists, and offset community event costs.
The PTO greatly appreciates and thanks each of you who are able to participate and make any contribution!

Twice a year, our school receives a check to help pay for whatever we need - equipment, supplies or experiences the kids love!
💸 To save free cash from being thrown out with the trash, please send in your receipts with your students in their backpack, and a volunteer will happily scan them for school credit!
There will be a zipper pouch outside of each classroom for your child to place receipts in, and a volunteer will collect them at the end of the week and scan them in, so you don’t have to!
💻 If you receive your grocery receipts digitally, you can forward the receipt to espto@easternchristian.org for credit as well!

The annual Eagles Fun(d) Run is the PTO’s main fundraiser of the year, where students can ask family and friends to pledge a dollar amount per lap that they complete during the event. The event is held during school hours and family members are invited to volunteer to run the event, and cheer on the kids. If you haven’t been part of this day in the past, you will want to save the date and come!
This event will be held Thursday, May 7th, 2026.
