EJSHS Parents and Students,
State Assessments are coming up this Thursday and Friday from 8:00–10:00 AM for our 7th, 8th, 10th, and 11th graders. We ask that students come to school on time, with their Chromebooks fully charged and their charging cords in hand.
Students not testing will have alternative activities during that time. To help everyone do their best, we recommend getting a good night’s sleep and starting the day with a healthy breakfast. Breakfast at school will still be served on those days.
Thanks so much for your support—we’re cheering on all our test-takers!
Our kindergarteners are diligently working on developing their understanding of math through grouping. The use of manipulatives provides them with a hands-on approach to learning. Additionally, they have been introduced to addition and subtraction equations. Way to go, Kindergarten!

We had an absolute blast celebrating April Fool's Day with our EES kids! They were brimming with hilarious jokes and playful pranks. One student, in particular, took us all by surprise with her masterful April Fool's prank. She truly outdid herself! 😄
Hope you had a fun day too!
