Learn More about the special day

ESM is ONE school on TWO campuses. Our Getz Road Campus is home to Getz Preschool and Grades K-3. Our Union Street Campus is home to Union Preschool and Grades 4-8. As we celebrate being Surrounded by the great cloud of witnesses (Hebrews 12:1-2), we give thanks for the many connections students have across generations. Grandparents Day is a chance for fun and fellowship with the extended ESM family who loves and supports these kids! We will again be welcoming ALL grandparents of PS-8 students on the same day! In order to accommodate the number of people at Union, we will be offering multiple “tracks” and will be asking for lots of parent volunteers. Stay tuned for volunteer sign-up. 

The details below should give you a sense of the day. While complicated, what a blessing to have two campuses, two churches, and lots of students to celebrate! Follow the prompts in the registration and your unique schedule will be shared with you. 

GETZ ROAD CAMPUS: 

We will host grandparents from 9am-11:15am at the Getz Road campus for Getz Preschool and Grades K-3. Doors open at the sanctuary at 8:35am. Coffee, juice, and a light snack will be served at the Getz Road event during one of the rotating stations. 

UNION STREET CAMPUS: 

We will host grandparents in three tracks at the Union Street Campus. Please be sure to coordinate with family members if there are multiple grandparents or special guests to make sure you are signing up for the same 'track'. Lunch will be served during the Union Street Track 1 and Track 2. We are excited to share that there will be no charge this year. The ESM PTL is graciously covering the cost as a special thank you to our Grandparents and Special Guests!
