Currently EHS has 9 teachers that keep up a lesson plan or blog website. You can access those pages under the link on the right hand side of this page titled: Staff Blogs & or Lesson Plans. In the weeks to come, additional teachers will be adding sites. These pages are a great place to get information regarding what is occurring in classes.
The first home football game of the 14-15 school year is tomorrow night, September 5th at 7:00 PM. A couple reminders and updates regarding our home football games and home athletic events in general.
1. At each end of the grandstands, and in several areas around the field, there are are trash cans. Please be courteous to our custodial staff who stay late to clean the stadium by disposing of your trash.
2. Young students (Middle School and younger) who visit the games should remain with their parents, or in the designated “youth” area at the East end of the home stadium. This helps maintain an enjoyable experience for all the fans that attend games. While it is ok for our youngest fans to not be in one of these areas, inappropriate behavior can and will result in this being required, or being asked to leave the game. The assistance of parents in assuring the venue is safe and enjoyable for all is greatly appreciated.
3. For home games for all sports this year there will only be one “gate” or entrance. It will be the one on the South side of the field by the main parking lot. . The benefits of this will be that fans will be able to flow to the restroom area without going through the gate that was usually on the North side of the field and it allows us to have more supervision staff and less “gate workers.” The downside is that if you are used to parking in the back or north parking lot, you will need to walk through campus to the main gate on the south side of the field.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact the school. Go falcons

Between now and Monday morning, April 14th, teachers will be updating their grades and loading progress reports. This is NOT a report card, but rather a picture of where students stand academically mid way through the 2nd semester. All progress reports will be mailed home and you should receive them the middle of next week. The 3rd progress report will come home on or about May 14th, and final report cards will be mailed home the week of June 23rd. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact teachers by phone or via email. Go Falcons!
