March 11th, 2022
Dear EAMS Students and Families,
In the 2019-20 school year, we welcomed a new team member at EAMS when Ms. Harmeyer became our new 6th-grade English teacher. She brought an amazing tradition with her, and each year since, we have been lucky enough to grant two wishes--Hunter in the spring of 2020 and Adrianna in the fall of 2020.
Next week is Wish Week at EAMS as our school community looks to grant Carson’s wish to go to Discovery Cove. The week will have dress-up days, games at lunch, and extra snacks and treats!

A huge shout out to the EAMS PTO for an excellent March Madness event last week! The students really appreciated the free-throw format, allowing more students to participate than ever before! It was great to see so many students, families, and community members in the bleachers cheering again.
We did not have a Readiness Lesson on Friday with the teacher inservice. Students explored Wish Week on Monday, and 6th/7th-grade students practiced their Academic and Career Planning skills by ranking Allied Arts choices for the upcoming school year. Families have the ability to see and adjust these rankings via Skyward.
Next Friday is our third, universal suicide awareness and prevention lesson of the school year. Students will review and build on their knowledge from the previous lesson, diving deeper into the concept of Acknowledge-Care-Tell, or ACT. Through role-playing in the classroom, the hope is that students will know and feel comfortable with how to address concerns about the mental health of their peers.
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

MARCH MADNESS SUCCESS!!!
A HUGE thank you to everyone for your help to make our annual free-throw tournament such a success. From basket raffle donors to student players to the staff players, workers, and dance team, we couldn't have done it without all of you. We raised over $4,000 for the PTO! A big thank you to our volunteers who helped coordinate the event, and Jennifer Ringhand who oversaw all the fun!

One of the most memorable moments at the 8th-Grade Moving On Celebration each year is the Student Slide Show. Help celebrate your cutie and how much they've grown! Our goal is for every student to submit one baby/kindergarten picture and one 8th-grade picture. Pictures can be submitted electronically HERE and are due by April 30th. Contact Brenda Johansen with any questions: bjohansen29@gmail.com.
