Last week, the English Department met for a department meeting. This is what Literacy Instructional Facilitator Tate Aldrich had to say:
"We don’t complain about “reinventing the wheel” We revisit, reevaluate, and reimagine best practices!
El Dorado High School’s English Department spent the morning focused on *intentionality* and standard-driven Learning Outcomes... How else will our students acquire “the language of learning?” (Hattie, Visible Learning for Teachers)
This awesome team of teachers has already provided me so much inspiration—and it’s only Week 3! "
EHS is lucky to have such awesome teachers in all our departments. We are excited for what's happening in our school! Way to go, English Department!

In honor of the first home varsity football game tonight, we are honoring the Wildcat football coaching staff! These coaches work hard throughout the year, to cultivate a culture of mental, physical, and emotional growth in their student athletes. They value academics, athletics, and the arts.
