With all the no-school days, we have lots of information to get out here at EHS. Please see below:
1. “Like” the “Principal Carpenter” facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/?sk=welcome#!/pages/Principal-Carpenter/460293930736145 to get updated information regarding EHS. This has been the primary way (outside of automated phone calls parents get) that I have been communicating immediate school closure information.
2. Tonight (Friday, December 13th) we are having home BBX games for both boys and Girls. At FRMS we have JV Girls at 5:15 and JV Boys at 7:00. In the EHS gym we have Varsity Boys at 5:30 ande Varsity Girls at 7:00.
3. FOOD DRIVE: Unfortunately, the last 6 days of school have decimated our Holiday food drive. We will not be attempting to “make-it-up,” so the Food Drive is over for this year. Next week when we return to school our focus will be on the Holiday “Adopt-A-Family” that students have been working on. Thanks to all those that are participating.
4. No decisions have been made yet on “make-up” days or any changes to the calendar as a result of school being closed this past week. As soon as any decisions are made in that regard, the information will be put out.
5. Progress report grades were to be uploaded by teachers today, and mailed home on Monday the 16th. With the loss of the last week, that will change. Once we get the new date I will let parents know.
With winter weather possible this week, I wanted to give a quick reminder to families regarding inclement weather, and how to get information when schools may be forced to delay or close.
School closures and delays will be broadcast over Eugene area radio and TV stations, on our district website under Weather Closures, and at www.FlashAlert.net
Decisions about early morning delays and school closures will be made prior to 6:30 a.m.
PROGRESS REPORTS: A reminder that there is no school Friday as teachers will be updating students grades for their 9 week progress reports. Those will get mailed home next week.
PLAYOFF FOOTBALL: The Falcons are home Friday, November 1st, in the first round of the state playoffs. Kick-off is at 7:00 PM vs. the Mazama Vikings.
Welcome to our new website, our year here at EHS is off to a great start! The staff and students have been fantastic and we are all looking forward to a great 13-14 school year. While we hope this website is a useful tool right from the start, it is certainly a work in progress. If you have suggestions for improvements, or items/information you would like to see, please do not hesitate to comment or email me at gcarpenter@fernridge.k12.or.us.
