Here is our schedule for today. Lot's of home cooking!
EAWR will be on spring break starting Thursday, April 6th through Monday, April 10th. School resumes on Tuesday, April 11th.
Reminder that state testing for freshmen, sophomores, and juniors is Wednesday, April 12th and students need to report directly to his/her testing room at 8 am.
In any school, there are numerous individuals behind the scenes who are critical to the the success of the school day. They transport our students to and from school, on field trips, to athletic events, take care of our campus, drop everything on the drop of a hat to clean something or help someone, and are amazing people to work with. These folks do their jobs day in and day out with little to no recognition. Most of them prefer it that way as this little project revealed. Finding some of them to get a photo proved to be challenging and there are several we were unable to get a photo of because they just want to make a difference quietly. Even if you are part of this team and not pictured, please know you make a difference and are appreciated. Thank you for all you do!
The following students were all referred to the office for being "Caught Doing Great Things" around campus. Some students elect not to have their photo taken but their names are listed below for recognition. Congratulations to these students and thanks for making EAWR a great place to work and learn.
Please Support the Riverbend Young Adults Committee by Purchasing a Ticket to the Scholarship Raffle Fundraiser.
EAWR's Representatives are: Mary Nguyen, Mia Siebert, Kylen Johnson, and Mia Plumb
