Current Announcements

This school year is flying by and Christmas is almost here!  That means we are starting to think about staff Christmas presents. Each year, instead of individual or class gifts, the PTO organizes a campus-wide monetary Christmas collection, at each campus. Your generous donations allow us to purchase small gifts and gift cards for the entire Midland Park & Wyckoff campus staff. These gifts will be from your children to our staff.  If you feel it in your heart to donate any amount towards the gift, please click the Paypal links below. You also have the option to send in cash or a check made payable to "ES PTO" (Midland Park) or "MS PTO" (Wyckoff), just make sure the envelope is addressed to us. The deadline to donate is 12/6. Thank you!

PTO Mission Statement

The mission of Eastern Christian School’s PTO is guided by 1 Peter 4: 8-11


“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”

We seek to serve our Eastern Christian community by developing a close connection between school and home through encouraging parent involvement. 

Our goal is to help build strong connections with EC families, participate in our children’s school experience, and offer our support to the dedicated team of teachers and staff who strive to deliver a quality, engaging, Christian education for our children.

We believe it is important to foster collaboration and communication between parents, teachers, and students to ensure the success of the school community as a whole.

School Information

📚 Welcome Back! 🎒
First Day of School - Wednesday, August 28th

🌱 2024-2025 Spiritual Theme: Grow, Gather, Go

Grow, Gather, Go based on Hebrews 10:23-25. “Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.” 

We are looking forward to learning how we can grow in our faith, gather with other believers and go out into the world to share the gospel with others. Our spiritual theme will be incorporated into classroom devotions and lessons as well as chapel messages. 

Note: Our new chapel day for PK-2nd grade students is Wednesday. Parents and guests are welcome to attend chapel on Wednesdays at 8:30. All chapel guests will need to show their car tag for entrance into the building.
