April 14th, 2022
Dear EAMS Students and Families,
A reminder to all students and families that there is no school tomorrow, April 15th or Monday, April 18th. We look forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday. Later that week, our Readiness Lesson will be planned by our individual teams and is a dedicated time for team and relationship building.
The following 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 invitations are being distributed to students during 7th period on Tuesday. Please be on the lookout for those! The event 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 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

THE FIRST OUTDOOR CLASSROOM IS COMING TO EAMS!
After more than a year of planning and generous partnerships with community businesses and the Elkhorn Kiwanis, the PTO is so proud to announce that construction will begin next week on the first outdoor classroom space at the Middle School. The pavilion and educational space will be located on the southwest corner of the property and will be built by the 6th Grade students in partnership with Wausau Homes, Muzatko Concrete, and Adams Solar. Please stay tuned for photos in the upcoming weeks of the project. We are so excited!

IT'S TIME FOR THE SPRING CLEAN!
Do you love a clean car AND helping our community? SO DO WE!!! The EAMS PTO has once again partnered with Kwik Trip to raise money with something we all love... a clean car! The Kwik Trip Ultimate wash is usually $10; we are selling cards with FIVE washes for only $36 each. The PTO will receive almost 50% of the profits to benefit EAMS so we all win this Spring! Stock up for the summer or plan ahead for Mother's Day, Father's Day, and more! CLICK HERE to purchase.
Benefits of an ULTIMATE Wash: Undercarriage Flush, Presoak, High-Pressure Wash or Soft Foam Wash, Triple Shine Vehicle Enhancer/Cleaner, Spot-Free Rinse and 95-Second Super Dry. Wash Amenities may vary slightly by location.
Cards work at any Kwik Trip location and do not expire. So ask all your Wisconsin friends and family to order too, and we'll mail the cards directly to them! The program runs through April 22, and cards will be delivered by May 6. We're hoping to continue making this fundraiser an annual event with your support! Contact Mary Robers at elkhornms.pto@gmail.com with questions or for more information.
