What a great week at EHCS Elementary!!!

We have had an amazing week here at EHCS!  Our students experienced a week of code.  Our students were introduced on Tuesday morning to coding by Mr. Ramsey.  He spoke to our students about his job and how to code.  It was really cool to see how many things use code to operate. Our students had several different ways of learning code this week.  On Thursday, we had a special guest, Mrs. Thweatt.  She spent the day in computer classes working on coding with our students.

I am very proud of my 1st and 2nd graders and their play last night "Flakes".  They performed today for the elementary school and did an amazing job!  Thank you parents for helping with sets and costumes.  Also, Thank you Mrs. Northcutt, Mrs. Jones, Mrs.Chandler and Mrs.Frankum for your hard work in directing the play.

We also have celebrated our 100th Day of School today.  Many of our classes had projects involving 100.  The had a great time making their projects.  Our Kindergarten students displayed their posters in the Eagles Nest for the other students to view.  Our PS-K student also had a visit from Snowbird today.  He read them a book about penguins and they had a wonderful time.

I am very proud of  Pack 54 boy scouts.  They held their pinewood derby and we had several winners.

1st place- Luke Duffey

2nd place- Jaxson White

Overall design winner- Hayden Williams

We have had a very busy week!  I have been in several classrooms and have seen many good lessons and all of the students working very hard.  I would like to mention a couple of exciting things that will be taking place in the next few weeks.  I have one special picture for this week, especially for our Kindergarten parents!!  It might make them a little teary-eyed!!

Our weather procedures for Ezell Harding are listed below.  In case of bad weather, the Administration will monitor the weather and send a "parent alert" if it does become necessary to close school any time during the winter months.  In addition to watching for the "parent alert" on your email and text, you can view any closing for our school on Channel 2, 4, 5.  We do not follow the same guidelines as public school, please see private school closings.

NO SCHOOL MONDAY JANUARY 18!!

We will be having a WEEK OF CODE, in the elementary school.  This allows our students to use the technology of coding a computer program.  We will have special guest with us this week and students will be working in the computer lab during class time as well.  This is going to be a great week and we are very excited!

We will be having spelling bees in our 1st-4th grade classrooms during the next couple of weeks.  We will have a official spelling bee on February 10th.  You will receive information at a later date.  Students should already have their spelling word lists for their classrooms.
