Elkton School District #5-3

School Picture Day is October 8th. See news Item for link to order photos. https://thrillshare.com/s/news-esd-elktonsd/articles/school-picture-day-esd

We have moved our picture date to Friday, October 8th due to so many kids currently out of the building.

Food shortages are nationwide, and our district is also experiencing unavailable items, or last minute replacements. Menus are subject to change, but we will do our best to notify you via website/social media if there are any changes. We appreciate your patience and understanding! We look forward to serving all of our students free breakfast and lunch this school year.
