Core Value Spotlight – Whole Child Education: We
believe schools must establish a safe environment conducive to the development
of the whole child, which extends beyond the academic core to include
experiential learning, the arts, cultural awareness, and physical and emotional
well being.

Essex Regional School District is being awarded the HealthierUS School
Challenge (HUSSC) bronze award for Memorial and Essex Elementary. The HUSSC is
a recognition award for schools that have demonstrated a commitment to
excellence in both nutrition and physical education to promote a healthier
school environment for children. It is a wonderful accomplishment for the food
service department, the students, and the district.
Each
student enters school healthy and learns about and practices a
healthy lifestyle. Our school supports, promotes, and reinforces healthy eating
patterns and food safety in routine food services and special programming and
events for students and staff.
