7th Grade Orientation--As an important transition year, we will host a separate 7th Grade Orientation Night on Wednesday, August 14 from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. There will be a brief orientation in the High School Gym (enter the High School doors). After the meeting, students can pick up schedules, access lockers, tour classrooms, and meet teachers. We reserve this time only for 7th graders so they can become comfortable with their lockers and schedules. Chromebooks may also be picked up this evening. Parent signatures are required on the Chromebook User Agreements, as well as a $20 insurance payment. Students will be able to bring devices home, but are responsible for charging devices each evening, and responsible for care of their device.
Attention all EHS and EMS athletes:
The annual meeting with the Athletic Director, Kari Koch-Dowell, will be Sunday August 11 at 5:00 in the high school gym. Athletes are asked to attend with a parent.
