Dear EAMS Students and Families,
Our Monday ABS lesson gave students the opportunity to reflect on their progress towards their goals. Teachers met with individual students to check-in on goals. This week’s Olweus lesson comes from the Second Step program. Each grade level had a different lesson, which all fell under the umbrella of “Recognizing Bullying and Harassment.” The lessons and handouts can be found here.
This week, our 8th-grade social studies students put their reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills on full display as they tackled a Socratic seminar. Students dove into the topic of religion in ancient Egypt. We are very proud of our students who took the lead in their own learning, disagreed without being disagreeable, and engaged each other in positive discourse.

Although it’s different from the past, one of the new and different items EAMS has really enjoyed this year is having our Band and Choir programs be located in the cafeteria. The sounds fill our halls every morning and afternoon. It is wonderful to see our students perform and, it creates a very lively atmosphere in the building. Check out a sneak preview of what our seventh-grade choir is working on here.
This coming Wednesday, the Elkhorn Resiliency Coalition is sponsoring a voluntary suicide awareness and prevention event for students, staff, and community members. The flyer with all the details is located below. Please consider attending in-person or virtually as we continue to build resiliency in the Elkhorn community.
As items come up that you have questions or concerns about, please do not hesitate to contact me, and have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Ryan McBurney
Principal
