Dear EAMS Students and Families,
Celebrating Veterans Day: Yesterday, EAMS had the privilege of celebrating Veterans Day in a variety of ways. EAMS staff members assisted with the recognition breakfast sponsored by the district and helped deliver meals to veterans in the community. Veterans had the opportunity to watch the district celebration video at the HS auditorium following breakfast. All EAMS students took time during WIN to watch the video as well. Additionally, three EAMS students were recognized by the VFW for their Patriot’s Pen submission, and they are Elizabeth (6th Grade), Max (7th Grade), and Madeline (6th Grade). Each student responded to the prompt “How Can I Be A Good American?” and will have their essay submitted to the state competition. As well, our 7th-Grade Social Studies teacher, Mrs. Kysely, was awarded the VFW Citizenship Education Teacher Award. We are very proud of all who were recognized!

Student Planner Update: In working with our representative from the distributor, we have negotiated a discount for our student planners due to the delay. The discount per student shakes out to be approximately $1 per student. For current 6th and 7th Grade students, this discount will appear by reducing the cost of next year’s student planner by $1. For 8th-grade students, a reimbursement by check can be requested by completing this form. If reimbursement is not requested, the funds will be allocated to the budget for PBIS prizes.
NJHS Application Period: The application is open to all current 7th and 8th-grade students with a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher, which can be found on Skyward via Family or Student Access. Return completed forms to Mrs. Dopke in Room #223 by February 15, 2022.
Below, you will find our Readiness Lessons for each grade level below:
6th Grade:
7th Grade:
8th Grade:
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

WE'RE OFF TO A GREAT START!
Back just in time for the holiday season, the hugely successful PTO Kwik Trip Car Wash Gift Card Fundraiser is back for ordering all month long. The wash gift cards work at any Kwik Trip location and would make the perfect gift for family, friends, new drivers, and... yourself! The Ultimate Car Wash usually costs $10; our gift card is loaded with five washes for just $36!!! Best part is that the EAMS PTO keeps half the profit so we all win! CLICK HERE for more information and place your order.

IT'S GAME NIGHT!!!
The PTO is organizing a special event for EAMS students on Friday, November 19th at the Elkhorn High School Agility Center. We need volunteers to help supervise! Did you take last month off and can help this time around? CLICK HERE to volunteer and help us pull off a successful evening for the kids. Here are all the details:
- This event is exclusively reserved for EAMS students. No siblings, friends from other districts, etc. will be allowed admittance.
-
Admission to this event is FREE! Concessions will be available for purchase.
- Drop Off will be run from 6-6:20pm through the bus lane at the front of the Agility Center. Students can line up on the sidewalk at the front of the school beforehand to keep the car line moving. No students will be admitted after 6:20pm. Pick Up will be opened at 7:45pm in the same location. All students must be picked up by 8:15pm at the latest. Access to the school will be restricted to staff, students, and registered volunteers outside of those times.
- The event will be held in the Agility Center and nearby Athletic Lobby. Students interested in playing in the Agility Center must wear athletic shoes to enter and dress comfortably. Only water is allowed inside the Agility Center so bring a labeled bottle too!
- Plan ahead what to do with your friends! All Agility Center game equipment for soccer, wiffle ball, kickball, and yard games will be provided. Those wanting to play something else in the lobby can bring a board game, handheld gaming device, D&D set, playing cards, and more! No gambling or poker games please. Students must be responsible for all items they bring - the PTO cannot cover damage or losses. Just remind students to label and keep items with them!
- Staff will be on hand to supervise and monitor students. All school rules still apply while on grounds, and parents will be required to immediately pick up violators.
