EMS Notes from "The Nest"

PARENT AND COMMUNITY INFORMATION

Good Afternoon Eastwood Families and Friends.

We have so many fliers and important notes, I wanted to get them out to you before the long weekend. I hope everyone can enjoy the time as we settle in to the school schedule. It has been a hot one in the building, but it looks like a break is on the way.

Reminder to communicate pre-planned absences with the office so we can gather work and notify teachers to prepare for students being absent.

If you would like to recieve our daily announcements via email, please contact the secretary, Mrs, Farmer, (rfarmer@eastwoodschools.org) to get added to this list to receive the announcements.

Finally, if you are going to tonight's home football game, please make sure that students are in the stands. The middle school generally finds a section at the top of the bleachers behind the high school student section. If not there, then in the general stands with family or friends. Students should be out of the stands for food, restroom, or locating family members. There should be no games, ball games, tag games, or other activities at the stadium. Balls may be signed by the varsity football players after the game, but there should be no catch or football games. Students are also not allowed to be in the parking lot during the games. You should be in the stadium. This is for the protection of all students and spectators of all ages walking in the stadium. Thank You

Enjoy the weekend, and we will see everyone on Wednesday, September 4.

Peace,

Dwight Fertig
