As we celebrate Read Across America week, we will also have our elementary change wars for a senior scholarship. Every year, our elementary students vote and choose one senior to receive the Eden Elementary Scholarship. The scholarship amount is the total amount of money the elementary students collect during the Change Wars.

Since it is approximately 3,000 miles across America, our goal is for each elementary class to collect at least 3,000 cents to help one of our seniors with some of their college expenses.

Just a few dress code reminders as we head into Spring:

* Bangs must be above the eyebrows.

* Students must be clean-shaven.

* Shorts and skirts for secondary students may be no shorter than 5 inches above the knee when standing up straight.

* Shorts and skirts for elementary students must be fingertip length when standing up straight.

* When wearing tight fitting spandex/leggings, the shirt or top must follow the above guidelines (5 inches above knee for secondary students and fingertip length for elementary).

* If there are holes or tears higher than 5 inches above the knee in jeans/pants, leggings must be worn underneath.

* Shirts/tops must cover the abdomen at all times.

The date for Spring pictures is March 13.

The National Honor Society will be hosting a science day for our elementary students on March 6. Students will rotate through various science stations in the high school lab throughout the day.

The end of the third 9 weeks will be Friday, March 14. Students who are not passing on that date will lose eligibility to participate in any UIL extracurricular sports or activities. Please check Parent Portal, and encourage your student to turn in any missing work.

We will dismiss for spring break on Friday, March 14 at 4:20 pm. Classes will resume on Tuesday, March 25 at 7:50 am.

Any student in Kindergarten--12th grade is invited to participate in the VFW Patriotic Art Contest. Artwork is due in the office by Friday, March 28.
