First Student Transportation is donating a bus and driver and the bus will leave EHS at 9:15 PM. However, if not enough students sign up for the bus, it will be cancelled. That decision will be made at 8:30 tomorrow morning so sign up quickly!!

We have a few dedicated parents who have been meeting to plan a fun and safe after graduation party for this years seniors. This is a great way for our Senior parents to volunteer. The time commitment is minimal, yet the opportunity it provides our students is very important. If you are the parent of a Senior (or even the parent of an underclassman who wants to see how it is run), please consider assisting this group. For more information you can contact the main office at EHS-541-935-8200 and we will put you in touch with the committee. THANKS!

The EHS Music Coffee-House Night is tonight from 6-8 in the cafeteria. Choir and guitar students will be performing, and refreshments will be sold. Admission is free. Come on down, check it out, and listen to some talented students.
I have added a new link on the side that has some general information regarding the EHS Booster Club. Please check it out, visit their website and contact them if you have any questions. The Booster Club does a TON for EHS student athletes and it is a great way for parents to get involved.
The scheduled end of 1st Semester date will NOT be changing as a result of our snow days in December. First Semester final exams are scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday, January 22nd and 23rd. Periods 1, 3, 5 and 7 on Wednesday, and period 2 ,4, and 6 on Thursday.
1. THE ANNUAL CANNED FOOD DRIVE:
This program begins Monday, December 2nd and runs through December 13th. Students that particiapte will receive raffle tickets for every 3 cans of food they bring in each day. Daily drawings for prizes will occur in addition to the grand prize of …a $100 VISA gift card. Thanks in advance to all of the members of the EHS community that participate to make this a successful event. The food is donated to those in need right here in the Elmira/Veneta/Noti/Walton area.
2. ADOPT-A-FAMILY:
Each school in the Fern Ridge School District has given EHS a family that could use some assistance this Holiday Season. The Honor Society and Key Club are coordinating this event through 5th period classes. Each class has been assigned a specific person (no names included), and the class gets that information. Such as: 8 year old boy, likes to read, do puzzles and play his PS4. The lists includes his needs and wishes. If you woud like more information regarding this program, as you may hear your student talking about it, please feel free to contact Mr. Cooper or Mrs. Marquess here at EHS.
Thanks again to everyone that takes the time to particpate in these two programs. The lessons learned here by our students are meaningful and important. As someone who has delivered the presents to families in the adopt-a-family program, I can tell you they are all extremely grateful. I wish everyone had a chance to see the joy and appreciation on their faces when they are delivered, as it is something you would not forget. GO FALCONS!
