The holidays can be a wonderful time, but we know they can also bring extra stress. This year, we are incredibly thankful to be sponsored by an amazing local church — Church 180— who are helping make Christmas brighter for East families in need. ❤️🎁

All assistance is completely anonymous.
If your family could use a little extra help this Christmas, please send us a message or give us a call. We can send a form home with your student or complete it over the phone.

📅 Forms are due by Wednesday, November 11th
Let us know how we can help make your family’s holiday season a little brighter. 💫

🌭 Mummification is underway in Mr. Epperson's 7th Grade Social Studies class!

As students learn about ancient Egyptian burial practices, they’re trying out the mummification process for themselves using hot dogs. Yesterday, they began by "removing the organs" and starting the drying process. We can’t wait to see how their mummies turn out! ⚱️
