Mr. Garner is at EHS with your senior class shirts! Bring CASH ONLY! $20 a shirt or $50 for all three! He will be there all afternoon until the football game starts tonight!
During the 2020-2021 school year, EHS will be utilizing a new bell schedule. The goal of this schedule is to help reduce the number of students on each lunch shift by adding a fourth shift. In addition, homeroom will move to 5th period. Lunch shifts may be adjusted in the first few days of school as we work through ensuring the safest feasible lunch shift for every student on campus.
All students 7-12th grade who are coming to school on site need to come to the EHS arena TODAY BEFORE 4pm to pick up your Chromebook. We will be using these in ALL classes starting next week! You may choose to purchase insurance for your chromebook for $25. Please bring cash or check only. Insurance is not required but highly recommended as you will be responsible to pay for damages.
EHS students in grades 10-12 will be able to access their class schedules beginning Wednesday, August 19. Students will receive a notification in their school email stating they are ready and can be viewed in the students HAC account. Students or parents who do not remember their HAC codes will need to email the appropriate counselor.

Several AP Biology students have committed to 8 hours of “Biology Boot Camp” this summer, where they practice skills that weren’t taught last year due to COVID-19.
They used social distancing, and when they did activities together, they wore masks. These students chose to participate in hopes to learn skills that will help them be competitive in AP Bio next year.
Students attend two days for four hours each day. The first day was reviewing genetics and learning about natural selection. The second day focused on phylogeny and ecology.
They were given snacks and candy each day. They also got a free "5 Steps to a 5" study book, notebook, safety goggles, and calculator. Students will also get a t shirt at the beginning of school.
Thanks to Mrs. Parker and the science department for hosting this boot camp!
