Eisenhower Fly-er
September 15, 2024
Message from the Principal
We are thrilled with how our two grade level of students are meshing together and joining in with the established culture of our building.
Our culture is built around working hard and treating people right. Please ask your student each night to see his/her agenda book and then to see the completed work. This will allow you to see that work is completed and completed well. It will also allow you great opportunities to have conversation about work and about specifics of the school day.
We realize your student is experiencing more independence during the day and students often want that independence from you checking on them at home as well. Please continue to check these things each day as they still need your academic guidance (even if the Math is beginning to not make sense:). Thank you!
The EPSSO (Eisenhower Parents and Staff for Students Organization) meeting originally scheduled for last Monday night is rescheduled to tomorrow night, Monday, September 16th , in the Don Charlton Library Media Center at 7:00. Hope to see you there!
Have a great week!
Sincerely,
Tim Holcombe
ADD Taught to Students
Through their elementary school experiences, students have learned about A.L.I.C.E., which is an acronym to help them know what to do in case of an intruder in the building.
This year, we are switching the acronym to ADD. ADD is also an acronym that allows students and staff to remember our protocols in case of an intruder.
The letters of ADD stand for:
- Avoid
- Deny
- Defend
Thank you to Officer Shaw for sharing these concepts with each of our students this past week! She did an excellent job of reinforcing concepts previously taught and describing countermeasures. Please ask your child what was learned.
Camp Info
Please remember that the payment for 6th grade camp of $240 is due by November 1st. Below is a link for camp payment. Please feel free to pay through that link. You can also bring a check into the Ike office and we will provide a receipt.
We are looking forward to camp and included additional information below.
