STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: Sadie Brewster showed kindness in the cafeteria today. She exchanged seats with a student so they wouldn't have to sit alone. She was given a school shirt as a thank you! Way to go Sadie! #BetheIinKind #wmsismakingideashappen #thepromisingchoice

The National Weather Service has issued a tropical storm warning for our area. Hurricane Laura is expected to bring rain and high winds to El Dorado tomorrow. Out of caution, the El Dorado School District will not hold face-to-face classes tomorrow, Thursday, August 27, 2020. All classes will be virtual. We are aware that some of our onsite students do not have a device at home. Any student who does not have access to a device or the internet will not be penalized and will have opportunities to complete their assignments. Grab and Go breakfast will be available for pickup from 8:00-10:00 a.m. at Retta Brown Gifted and Talented Center for elementary and middle schools and at El Dorado High School for junior high and high school students. Decisions about Friday will be announced tomorrow. We realize this is a late announcement and apologize for any inconvenience.

Please take just a second to review the district dress code guidelines. Thank you! https://5il.co/k889
