Good Evening,

This is your Proud Principal, Mr. Garrett, with some important information for the week of December 9th, 2024.

We only have two more weeks until we’re out for Winter Break. We want to remind all students to remain focused on their academics each day that we’re in school in order maximize our instructional time.

Our Winter Sports will kick off their seasons this week. On Wednesday, December 11th, Boys' and Girls' Basketball will travel to Western Middle and our Wrestling team is at Home vs. Turrentine and Hawfields. On December 12, Boys' and Girls' Basketball will host Broadview Middle School. Girls' Basketball and Wrestling begin at 4:45 p.m., while the Boys' game follows the conclusion of the girls' game.

Looking ahead, our Winter Chorus Concert will take place on Monday, December 16th, at 6:15 pm. Our Band Winter Concert will occur on Tuesday, December 17th, at 6:15 pm. Both concerts will take place at the Eastern Alamance High School Auditorium.

Finally, we have our Title I Curriculum Night on Wednesday, December 18th, 2024 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm. We will be featuring a Spanish/Band/Chorus Showcase. Don’t miss an opportunity to experience our talented students' achievements in the arts! We will also have Teacher Presentations. Our teacher teams will present highlights of student achievements over the past 9 weeks. Each team will give a brief presentation to showcase the academic growth and progress of students. We will also provide Parent Resource Stations & Sign-Up for Parent Conferences where you can receive helpful tools and strategies to support learning at home. Also, take an opportunity to sign up for upcoming Parent-Teacher Conferences to connect one-on-one with your child’s teachers. Throughout the Evening: Fun Family Engagement. We will have Door Prizes, a Childcare Room providing a Supervised space for children to enjoy crafts and activities, and a Photo Booth to memorialize the event. Finally there will be Food for the Family as well as an opportunity to receive Winter food assistance, available on a first-come, first-served basis. We have an awesome evening planned for Wednesday, December 18th, from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm so mark your calendars and we can’t wait to see you then!

Well, that's all for now. This is Mr. Garrett signing off from the Home of the Eagles, where I always say, "We're having fun, but we ain't playing."
