REMINDER FOR EAST ELEMENTARY & EAST JAY ELEMENTARY PARENTS
🎉⚽️ Big News from East Jay Elementary! ⚽️🎉
We are bursting with pride as we cheer on our very own 3rd grader, Manuel Hernandez, who is on his way to Madrid, Spain today! 🇪🇸✈️
Last summer, Manuel attended a soccer camp hosted by the Real Madrid Foundation. While there was a chance he could be selected for something big, his family could only hope… and then it happened!
Manuel received the official invitation from Real Madrid Foundation and Kaptiva Sports to represent Team USA in the RMD World Challenge — a global youth tournament where he will compete in the 10-year-old category, taking place April 10-19, 2025. ⚽🌍🇺🇸
Manuel has been passionate about soccer since he was 5 years old, starting at Boomer Soccer at the community center and later playing for the Celina Shipyard soccer league. His journey has just begun, but this opportunity is a huge step toward his dream of one day playing professionally — especially for his all-time favorite team: Real Madrid!
Let’s give a HUGE East Jay shoutout to Manuel — we’re so proud of you and we’ll be cheering you on from home! 💙💛
We’re proud to share that East Jay Elementary sixth grade student Londyn Cavanaugh won the Regional Oratorical Contest on Thursday and will be advancing to the Indiana North District Oratorical Contest at Huntington University on Saturday, April 26 at 10 a.m. This is her second year in a row reaching this level, and we couldn’t be more excited for her. Our students are cheering her on as she prepares to represent East Jay once again!
We can't wait to see you tomorrow at East Jay Elementary for our Annual Spring Art Show & Music Program!
Have a wonderful Spring Break with your children , and we will see them back on Monday, March 31st!

Happy National Read Across America Day!
Today, our East Jay Elementary students had a special treat as NHS students from the high school came to read with them. They also handed out bookmarks, and we had some very special guests—The Cat in the Hat, along with Thing 1 and Thing 2.
Thank you to our NHS students for making reading even more fun.
