Parent Advisory Committee Meeting

We will be having our first Parent Advisory Committee meeting of the 15-16 school year tomorrow, September 16th at 6pm in the high school library.  Come join us if you are interested in volunteering for events, or having a voice in the events and activities of EHS.  All input is appreciated and there are many opportunities to be a part in your child's high school years.  It's amazing how many parents stop being a part of the school system when their child enters EHS, but that doesn't have to be you.  Come attend one of our meetings, or simply send me an email at:  dgriebel@eskymos.com and let me know you would like to be added to the parent advisory email group and I will get you signed up to receive updates.
Hope to see many of you tomorrow night!

Parent/Student PowerSchool access for the 2015-16 school year goes active tomorrow!  Come check us out regularly!

EHS Parents and Students,

It's hard to believe but on this nice, balmy September evening,  I'm thinking of snow days.... not wishing for them, but planning for how to get word out to everyone when that unexpected heavy snow or ice appear in October or November (lets hope it's not that early!).  Please follow the instructions on the letter from our Superintendent below that was originally sent out in 2013.  This letter can be found on the district website by going to the eskymos.com webpage and clicking on the PowerSchool tab (located on the right side of the page.  Click on "Power Announcement Parent Letter".  This will give you instructions to go to your parent access in PowerSchool and click on "Power Announcement".  Then place your correct contact info so that the announcements can reach you effectively.  Even your child can have their contact info in for a cell or email to receive updates.  Please click on the link below to see the set up info.

Thanks,
Darci Griebel
EHS Principal
