​Enrollment Referral Incentives
We are continuing our tradition of enrollment incentives. Our school seeks enrollment of incredible students for the upcoming school year. If you are referring a new family / student(s), please use the button below to provide information for the students you are helping to enroll at our school.

Once the child has been fully enrolled we will reach out to you regarding the incentives.  Alternatively, enrollees’ families may call Enrollment Coordinator Maritza Ramos @ 302.762.5834; or can reach us through enrollment@escs.K12.de.us.
APEX Honors Program is a HUGE Success!
Our first year proved how amazing our students are with 83% of our APEX graduating students attending highly competitive high schools.  High performing students are often overlooked. Students who have the capacity to go beyond the state assessment and compete on a higher level should be given every tool necessary to succeed.

The focus of our APEX Honors Program is to prepare our students for academic and social challenges they will face in high performing High Schools and beyond. Check out the flyer, apply online or via paper application.

Transportation Changes

2022-2023 Student Transportation Survey Form
Families are asked to complete the survey below regarding their students' transportation needs for the 2022-2023 school year.
​
The survey must be completed by August 1, 2022, in order to be included in the initial bus route for the first day of school (August 29, 2022). Since there will not be a stipend program for this upcoming school year, we will be adding more buses and bus stops to the previous schedules after collective responses. Students that complete the survey and are eligible for transportation will be assigned to a bus and routing information will be available at the school's Welcome Back BBQ.
​
Temporary Transportation Change
This form is ONLY for a student that needs to have their transportation changed for one day.  Requests must be received prior to 1:30 pm to ensure a change of transportation can be made for the day. If there is a permanent change needed please contact the Transportation Department or Main Office.
​
Thank you for your cooperation.  Please review the bus schedules and note the stop times and bus number prior to completing the transportation form.

​Dress Code
After much discussion EastSide has decided to move from a uniform to a dress code
  • Students will be allowed to wear clothes that they choose
  • Clothes must not be revealing and cannot have any offensive language or images
  • We are aware that many of our children have grown over the past two years and to help ease the transition back into school life we do not want uniforms to be a limiting factor
