Principal
The four-week progress grades for Elmira High School have been updated and can be viewed through Home Access Center and Schoology. Please contact EHS (541-935-8200) if you have any questions or need assistance logging in.
Parent-teacher conferences are scheduled for October 17th from 4-8 p.m. in the EHS cafeteria and continue on October 18th by appointment only from 8-12 in teacher classrooms. Please take this opportunity to discuss your students’ progress with their teachers.
Progress reports for the first quarter will be mailed home the week of November 5th.
Game Details: Friday, October 4th at 7 pm against Pleasant Hill. The gate opens at 5:45 pm.
Dance Details: Saturday, October 5th from 8 pm to 10 pm in the cafeteria. Tickets must be purchased in advance in the main office. For more details call 541-935-8200. Guest passes must be pre-approved by Wednesday, October 2nd.
Parade Details: Friday, October 4th. Staging begins at 3:45 pm. Judging occurs at 4 pm. Staging will occur in the Cup of Joe parking lot. The parade will conclude in the same location. See map below for the route.
Elmira High School’s open house is scheduled for September 30th.
The evening begins in the cafeteria with a pizza dinner for parents/guardians at 5:45 pm.
Beginning at 6:10 pm, parents/guardians will walk through their student’s full schedule beginning with 1st period. The evening will end at 7:30 pm.
*Scheduling Open House on a day where there are no conflicting athletic activities is difficult. When choosing this date, we worked with the middle school and two elementary schools to make sure our open house date did not overlap with their dates. It is also important to hold Open House near the end of September so issues can be dealt with before midterm grading. If you can make it to some of the classes, we invite you to attend what you can.
Falcon Friday Football Schedule
Football Fans,
On Friday, September 20th our junior varsity football team will have a twelve minute exhibition competition with Sisters at 6 pm. The varsity football game will follow at 7 pm as originally scheduled. The gate will open at 5:45 pm. This week, the theme is GLOW IN THE DARK! Please continue reading for guidelines when attending an EHS Football Game
A “Youth Area” specifically for middle school age or younger students has been created at the NE end of the home grandstands. While sitting in the main grandstands or simply being with your parent/guardian is always an option for our younger fans, this seating area is specifically designated for younger students (so adults beware) so they can watch the game or socialize with their peers in a safe location.
Youth who are being unsafe or not following the directions of game management personnel, may:
Be asked to remain in the youth area for the remainder of the game.
Be required to stay with their parent/guardian for the remainder of the game.
Be asked to leave the game. o
Lose the privilege of attending further EHS Athletic events.
Please do not bring footballs into the game as they cannot be thrown around.
At each end of the grandstands, and in several areas around the field, there are trash cans. Please be courteous to our custodial staff who stay late to clean the field and stadium by disposing of your trash. Your help is appreciated.
Finally, it is a privilege to attend EHS athletic events, and as such it can be taken away. Unsafe behavior, unsportsmanlike behavior, or behavior in general that is not appropriate for a school setting is not OK at athletic events. We hope your experience at the game is an enjoyable one! GO FALCONS!
Your help and support in this area is appreciated.
All 9th graders and new students report to EHS on Tuesday, September 3rd, at 8:30 am. The day concludes at 3:21 pm. If you need to find a bus pick-up or drop-off time, please click on this link: https://www.fernridge.k12.or.us/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/EHS.pdf
