FROM OUR CLASSROOMS
EUNICE AND SHERMAN SEECHE CULTURAL ARTS INITIATIVE
There are so many great cultural arts/theater opportunities happening  at EHS!  On Thursday,  docents from the MFA visited our 5th graders and shared some Egyptian art with them. The students had a chance to act as museum curators and try to figure out how best to display some archeological finds. In 3rd grade, students are taking Readers Theatre from the classroom to the stage! They are hard at work learning how to read stage directions while rehearsing. And  last, but certainly not least , our kindergartners got a chance to put on puppet shows with the bear puppets they made. 
STEM NIGHT
Our 6th annual Community STEM night was a huge success!
The children and their families had an engaging, nature-themed evening filled with creative and hands-on STEM activities. They coded, experimented with volcanoes, made bug robots, and learned about solar eclipses from Doc Sal.

Many thanks to Morah Lea and her STEM team who helped organize and execute a fun and educational night!

TOWER GARDEN UPDATE
Our students are growing hydroponic produce and feeling grateful to our donors. Take a look at our progress and the thank you video our first and second graders made.
