On December 3rd, the El Dorado School Board voted to adopt the COVID ACHI Resolution in an effort to better serve students of the El Dorado School District. Based on the current data from the Arkansas Center for Health Improvement (ACHI), the district follows the trends table that references the rates of new known infections for a 14-day period per 10,000 residents located within the boundaries of our district.
Due to an increase in new cases, causing the numbers to trend upward into the orange color scale, all students, staff, and visitors will be required to wear masks while in school district buildings and on school buses when returning to campus tomorrow, January 4th.

"O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree, How Lovely Are Your...Numbers?" Mrs. Coan's students at EHS created a Christmas Tree using math during one of their recent RTI sessions. Check out their pictures, and Mrs. Coan's explanation of the project!
"The Sierpinski triangle is a self-similar fractal that was discovered by Waclaw Sierpinski in 1915. My students created a representation of it by playing the Chaos Game, generating random numbers with a die, and marking the midpoints of segments. Once you see the pattern, you can use equilateral triangular pyramids to construct a 3-dimensional model, which becomes a mathematical “Christmas tree” when constructed with green and red paper. Ours is about 3 feet tall and consists of 256 small pyramids," Mrs. Coan explained.
Washington Middle School beginning and advanced orchestra students performed at the courthouse earlier this month.
Join EHS senior Carmelo Brown in this wonderful rendition of "Mary, Did You Know?," which he sang at the holiday concert on December 9th. If you can't tell, EHS students, definitely enjoyed it! https://youtu.be/s5etqMwX6r8
