AEHS Weekly Newsletter

Good evening, Einstein Community,

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a restful and positive Winter Break. As we begin this new year, I want to take a moment to thank our building service members, coaches, administrative secretary, and administration. They all took time over the break to serve students and ensure our school is ready for everyone’s return.

I understand that returning to school after a long break can sometimes be a challenge, but the good news is we have a short week ahead to ease back into the routine.

A Few Quick Reminders:

• ID Checks: We will continue checking students' IDs at the door. To make things easier tomorrow, I recommend that students take a moment tonight to double-check that they have their ID ready.

• Our next newsletter will be sent on Sunday, January 12.
• 
  

Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow! Let’s make it a great start to the new year.
