Principal
Due to the smoky conditions we need to cancel athletic workouts for today Tuesday, September 8th and tomorrow Wednesday, September 9th. We will reassess conditions on Thursday.
In support of distance learning every Elmira High School student will be issued a Chromebook. This device will be used by the student all year to support their distance learning efforts. We will be distributing Chromebooks, textbooks and yearbooks on September 9-11 from 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM. We are asking students to come pick up supplies by grade level and alphabetically. Please follow the schedule linked below to pick up your Chromebook.
In addition, Lifetouch will also be here to take pictures for student body cards, please use the link below if you would like to order pictures from Lifetouch.
Just a reminder, that if you are interested in participating in any of the activities during Season 1 (September 7th- December 27th) please remember the following:
1. Please contact the coach listed (on the Season 1 Plan) for the sport you wish to participate in. Please tell him/her that you plan to attend their specific workouts and/or the strength training if your sport is not in session.
– Please Note: So that we maintain organized and stable pods, the strength training classes will be set for each session. This means that once these workouts start, no one new can join later in the session. You can always sign up for another session if you miss one and your sport is not in session, but athletes must communicate with his/her coach so that he or she can be included on the list for the upcoming session.
2. All athletes must complete the FamilyID registration (the link is on the athletic page on the high school website) prior to participating. An updated physical is required every two years for athletes to be eligible to participate and there is a new COVID-19 waiver that has been added.
3. Important: If athletes can not follow safety protocols (wearing a mask, social distancing, etc.) while in a workout, a parent will be called and he/she will be sent home.
On Thursday, September 3rd and September 10th at 5:30 PM EHS will be hosting a virtual Q & A session for the EHS community. We will do our best to answer your questions about the upcoming school year and to provide you with information about schedules, chromebook checkout, and other important topics. Please use the link below to access the meeting. We hope you will join us on Thursday.
The OSAA, OHA, and ODE have provided us with guidance around how to resume some athletic activities on campus. The attached document describes our plan and procedures for the return of athletics to EHS. Please feel free to call the office at 541-935-8200 if you have any questions.
Our online registration system is now available. Any new or returning students can use this system to register for the 2020-21 school year. Please remember that we have three options for registration:
- Online registration for new and returning students using the links listed below. This is the preferred method for families to register.
- Come to the school and pick up a packet. Families that would prefer a hard copy can come get a packet from the front office and drop it off when it is complete.
- Make an appointment. Families that would prefer to register in person can call the school and make an appointment to register.
Just as reminder new families (excluding 9th graders) will need to provide a transcript to help us schedule classes. For all returning students, schedules will be available on Home Access beginning Wednesday, August 26th. No hard copies of schedules will be provided at this time. Unfortunately, due to the need to place students in specific cohorts there will be NO SCHEDULE CHANGES ALLOWED at this time. We realize that this will be a disappointment to many, but the health and safety of our students is our number one priority and maintaining small, stable cohorts is the safest way for students to return to school when the metrics allow that to happen. Please don’t hesitate to call the office at 541-935-8200 if you have any questions.

At the link below, you can find our flyer describing registration options that will be available, starting next week. Those registering for the OPTIONS program should still register through their resident/home school. There are 3 choices in regards to how to register (in-person by appointment, pick up and drop off, or a fully online registration option). All of these options will be available starting at the identified times in the flyer. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact your school.
Thanks in advance to our families for filling out the survey below (very short, 2-3 minutes). The survey allows the district to collect some data, regarding the following:
- How many students will be enrolling in our hybrid program at our schools (some in person-some out as allowed by health metrics and ODE/Governor guidance).
- How currently plan to enroll in our FRSD OPTIONS program that will be fully online with some teacher support.
- How many are pursuing an option outside of the FRSD school district and will not be returning.
This information will help us tremendously with our planning over the next several weeks. This is for returning AND new students to fill out. Please take one survey for EACH student that you have. The survey will remain open until Monday morning, August 10th.
If you need more information before filling out the survey regarding what our hybrid/in-person model will look like, or more information on the FRSD OPTIONS program, please feel free to call or email your building principal.
