Cheer Workshop 2023 is right around the corner. If you have a 4th, 5th, 6th, or 7th grader that is interested in cheering at WMS or BJHS, this is a great way for them to test the waters, learn new things, and have fun. We look forward to seeing new and returning faces! -Coach Hodnett & Coach Moore Cheer Workshop Registration Link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfUl4SpXvUhqay-CcBbVz7SUysKQdWbFMeaiYrXuOBnmqLj7g/viewform?usp=pp_url

Due to the high probability of inclement weather and the winter weather advisory in place for Union County, the El Dorado School District will use an AMI (Alternate Method of Instruction) Day for Wednesday, February 1st. Please follow the AMI guidance provided by your school. All campuses will be closed. All extracurricular activities scheduled for tomorrow are canceled and will be rescheduled if and when possible. Further announcements will be made if the closure is extended.

REMINDER: Each term students have independent reading goals, which are set in Renaissance. We recommend students read 20 minutes each day and plan to test on their book soon after they finish it. Please work with your child to help track their progress toward their goal.

School will dismiss at 1:30pm. Buses will run a little behind today. Thank you for your understanding!

ATTENTION: Guardians can continue checking students out as long as school personnel can do so safely. If it becomes unsafe, check-outs will be paused until they can be resumed safely. Additionally, if there are any guardians who are outside the school buildings and would like to take cover inside, please do so at your own risk. We want all to be safe.

ATTENTION: Due to the current weather warnings, all schools are in a tornado drill. We do have early dismissal today, but dismissal will not begin until the warning has been lifted. Buses may run late.

Reminder: Only 2 weeks away from the due date for AR Points. Please check with your student to see their progress on reading their books to test on after Christmas Break.
