Picture Day is this Wednesday, Sept. 13th Parent Information Night is next Monday, Sept. 18th

A Greeting from the Principal Dear EHSI Families, We've had a fabulous beginning to our school year! Our scholars are coming in raring and ready to go each day. I am thrilled to report that by 9:15am, the hallways were empty and instruction was taking place. It was amazing to see how quickly our scholars were engaged in learning and ready to take on this new school year. Several community members and district personnel joined us in welcoming scholars back on Tuesday... even the EP Eagle dropped in to wish our scholars well! As Señor Hegland and I toured the building we spoke with many familiar faces and welcomed many new ones; we could not have been more proud! I feel so fortunate to work with such an amazing staff and student body, truly! As I continue this journey as your principal, you'll often hear me say, "Community is at my core." Once again this year I will be publishing “Noticias” (news) in hopes of strengthening our community by sharing not only important dates but also EHSI successes and goals for the future. We're always looking for ways to improve our school so please respond to this email if you have ideas to share with me. Looking forward to seeing you next Monday night! Sr. Moncada

P.S. It's been brought to my attention that I don't wave at everyone who waves to me in the morning. I'm not grumpy, really! Thankfully the sun has been shining but oftentimes it reflects on windows making it especially difficult for me to see inside vehicles. Please know I'm excited to see you, wave or not!

All School Assembly Last Friday We concluded our week with a high-energy, all-school assembly. Staff embraced our SuperHero theme (where being bilingual is a super power) and students were reminded to be safe, kind and responsible as they go about their days at EHSI. Please ask your child to tell you about being "seguro, amable y responsable!"

The SEF Welcomes Our 2017-18 Interns!

The Spanish Education Fund is excited to bring 14 full year interns from Spain, Colombia, El Salvador and Chile to Eagle Heights this school year.

Register to Participate in our EP Elementary Cross Country Race This year’s race will be held on Thursday, October 5th from 4:30-6:00. (Please arrive to the Central Middle School tract by 4pm.) There is no cost to participate, and each student who participates in the 1 mile race will receive a free shirt. Our goal is to support the fitness being taught in PE classes while encouraging kids to pursue running as a lifelong activity. But perhaps most importantly, we want it to foster school and EP pride by having kids from all schools come together for a district-wide activity. Click here to register at www.epxc.org. You may also register online for 2 optional practices (also free, on 9/18 and 9/26) to help prepare for the meet.
