Principal
Elmira High School invites parents, staff, coaches, students, and community members to attend a forum in the EHS theater on Wednesday, February 26th. The topic will be the EHS Athletic Contract and we will start at 6:00 PM sharp and end at or before 7:00 PM. Anyone is welcome, so please share this information and encourage others who are interested in the topic to attend. There may be a short presentation at the beginning by the school, however the majority of the time will be spent allowing those that attend to ask questions or share their opinions.–Mr. Carpenter
At the School Board meeitng last night the Board opted to replace 5 total days of the 9 that have been lost and add 4 at the end of the year (we already made up one day on February 17ty). The 23rd of May will be reinstated as a teacher work (non-student) day. The last week we will have students Monday through Thursday (June 16th-19th) with Friday (the 20th) being the teacher workday at the end of the year. If there are those that have unavoidable, prearranged conflicts, please contact the school so we can work out a plan. This should be the final change, regardless of future inclement weather. In addition, the last day for seniors, and the graduation day HAVE NOT changed. If you have questions, please contact the school
Senior Night for the Boys and Girls Basketball teams will be held Monday, February 24th. This
is a change from the original schedule. We hope to see you there as we honor our Seniors.
Girls Varsity starts at 5:45 and Boys Varsity will follow this game.

A reminder that all Junior students will be taking four state tests this school year: Reading, Writing, Math and Science. In order to earn their diploma, the state of Oregon requires students to pass the tests in Reading, Writing and Math. Most of the Juniors have taken their first attempt this school year in Reading and Math. This week Junior students are beginning their state tests in Writing. Over the course of the next month, all Juniors will complete this exam. Ask your student how they are doing on their state tests and please provide any encouragement you can at home. If you have questions regarding state testing, or how your studnet is doing, feel free to contact the school and speak to Mr. Carpenter, or Stacy Cornelius (the state testing proctor), at extension 336 and she can give you an update. GO FALCONS!
