Booster Club Meetings
We have raised over $6,000 but still would like to meet our $9,000 goal! We need your help so we can maintain our general operating budget and continue to support our Teachers, Staff and Students. We are asking for a $20 donation per student. You can make out your check to Elkhorn Ridge Middle School Booster Club and have your child bring it to school Or simply use this PayPal link to donate.
The Kindness committee is stocking the lounge with snacks and drinks so teachers and staff can pop in and grab some fuel for their day! Here is the link to donate items
đźš—Pick Up and Drop Offđźš—
When dropping off or picking up your student, please be vigilant of other students that are walking or biking to and from school. Additionally, please try to keep the car lines moving as it helps with the flow of traffic to keep things moving in and out of our parking lot.
Busses will unload and load directly south of our school, and this is a zone where no cars can be, so please keep that in mind as you drop off and pick up your student.
Please help keep the flow of traffic moving.
