Principal's Message
E.O. Green Junior High School Families,
As we welcome our students back, we are excited to see them engaged and ready to learn. We’ve taken the time to review expectations with our students, ensuring that we are all geared up for a successful year of growth and achievement. September is shaping up to be a month full of opportunities for our students.
Please note the following important dates:
Monday, September 2: No school in observance of Labor Day.
Monday, September 16: No school for students due to our first Teacher Professional Development Day.
Also, mark your calendars for Back to School Night on September 26. This event is a wonderful opportunity for you to meet your student’s teachers and learn more about what we have planned for the school year.
To stay informed about school events and updates, I highly recommend downloading the HESD app, signing up for ParentSquare, and regularly visiting the E.O. Green website.
Thank you for your continued support.
Warm regards,
D. Topi Sanchez
E.O. Green Junior High School
