Attention ESHS Parents,
Snow Day Makeups! Starting Monday, February 5th, we will extend our school day by 15 minutes for the rest of the school year. Students should begin class at 7:45 instead of the former 7:55. School will then dismiss at 3:10 daily. We will also attend school on Presidents’ Day, February 19th. School morning bus routes times will stay the same, so there is no need to have students at the bus stop earlier than usual. Students will have the opportunity to eat breakfast at their normal time and/or at the second chance breakfast between first and second period. The change in our bell schedule will allow us to stay on track and finish the school year on the previously scheduled May 21st. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter. Please contact ESHS at 479-253-8875 if you have any questions.
The basketball games for tomorrow night against Haas Hall Rogers have been canceled. The Highlanders will return to action Friday night at Cotter.
