Please don't forget! All 9th graders and Seniors will have a virtual learning day on Tuesday April 15th . We are doing ACT and PreACT in person that day with all 10th and 11th grade students. Testing will start at 7:40am. See below for more details.

Schools in District 196 will offer the ACT for Grade 11 students, and PreACT for Grade 10 students. The tests will be administered on Tuesday, April 15 starting at 7:40 AM and there is no need to register.

• Students in grades 9 and 12 will have an E Learning Day on Tuesday, April 15th. They will stay home and are responsible to work on any assignments they receive from their classes.

Teachers will communicate those expectations through Schoology and will be available to help students (teachers will communicate that process with students). We will send out testing room locations on Schoology the Friday before testing and posters will be located around the building for students to find their appropriate testing site.

National Honor Society applications were sent out to qualifying Eagan High School sophomores and juniors with a GPA of 3.8 or 3.6 and honors status. Students received this invitation through their school email. Applications are due by April 24th at 2:30 PM in the main office of EHS.

• All members must complete twelve hours of service each trimester. All hours must be posted in InnerView by the last day of each trimester. Seniors, however, will be required to turn in half their spring hours in early May because of deadlines associated with the graduation program.
• To receive credit for service hours, members must completely report their hours in InnerView, including a clear description of the activity and specific dates, and the supervisor cannot be the member's parent. (If the parent is the supervisor, please see Ms. Gesk for individual approval.)

Achieving a perfect score in clay target shooting (25 out of 25 in trap or skeet) is considered rare, even for experienced shooters, due to the unpredictable nature of the targets and the difficulty of consistently hitting them.

EHS would like to congratulate two of our own for achieving perfect rounds in trap shooting.

Hayden Davis (team captain) broke 25 clay targets in a row - a perfect round! This was even more impressive due to the below freezing temperatures, the wind, and the rain-sleet-snow mix they had on the Sunday afternoon of the event (3/30). It was a great start to the Eagan Clay Target Team's season!

Last Sunday (4/6) Erik Flaskerud (11th grade) also had a perfect round - braking 25 clay targets in a row! Erik has been shooting since 7th grade, and has many scores of 24, but this is his first perfect 25 straight! Roll Cats!

The 196 MTB team is a cycling team that develops riders and competes against other teams in Minnesota under the rules of the Minnesota Cycling Association (MCA). We balance the competition of a team with other aspects of a club to keep the sport fun and enjoyable for riders of all ability levels. The 196 MTB team is a fun and inclusive “Family Orientated” community that builds life skills through the sport of cycling.

The season runs mid-July through mid-October.
