April 22nd, 2022
Dear EAMS Students and Families,
Next week will kick off our multiweek unit on “Managing Relationships and Social Conflict.” Students will learn strategies for developing and maintaining healthy relationships, perspective-taking, and dealing with conflict. The lessons for that unit are linked here:
Last April, EAMS hosted its first Middle School Showcase. With respect to attendance restrictions, this event targeted incoming 6th-grade students last year. Now that we find ourselves able to gather in larger numbers, the Middle School Showcase will target incoming and current EAMS students and families. We are inviting all current families to visit EAMS on April 26th from 6:30-8:00 PM. All EAMS cocurriculars and classes will have students highlighting unique projects, accomplishments, and learnings from the 2021-2022 school year. We hope you can join us that evening to celebrate our students.
8th-Grade Moving On:
-
We are seeking pictures (one baby/kindergarten and one 8th grade) of every student to show at the Moving On Celebration. The following link can be used to submit pictures.
-
The Moving On Celebration is on June 3rd from 5:30-9 PM at EAMS.
- The Moving On Ceremony will be hosted on the last day of school, June 8th, at 12:30 PM. Families are welcome to sign their student(s) out after the event.
As items come up that you have questions or concerns about, please do not hesitate to contact me, have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Ryan McBurney
Principal

OUTDOOR CLASSROOM UPDATE: THE FOUNDATION HAS BEEN LAID... LITERALLY!
Our 6th Grade students were on hand this week to observe Muzatko Concrete pouring the concrete foundation for the space. Teachers explained the prep and in-ground framework needed to support the structure while Josh Muzatko and his team donated their time and services to do the work and show kids the entire process. THANK YOU MUZATKO CONCRETE! Greg Ingersoll of Wausau Homes was also on hand this week for a safety discussion with the selected student helpers before building construction begins Monday. We can't wait to see how far they get!

GUESS WHO ELSE IS DONATING TO THE CLASSROOM PROJECT... YOU!!!
In addition to the $10,000 gift from the Elkhorn Kiwanis and labor donations from our community partners, EAMS PTO members at this week's meeting approved up to $5,000 toward the completion of the project too! We are only able to offer that support because of the generosity of our EAMS family this year at our book fairs, car wash fundraisers, and March Madness auction. So... THANK YOU for your donations, large and small, so we could all make these improvements possible. :)

SCHOLASTIC BOGO BOOK FAIR STARTS MONDAY
Here's your chance for the kids to stock up on books for the summer! The BOGO Scholastic Book Fair is coming to EAMS from April 22-29th. Everything at the in-person store will be buy one item, get one item (at same or lesser value) for FREE! The fair will be open during the Spring Fling and run next week from 7:00am-3:00pm.
