East Hill's Second Annual Education Fair takes place tomorrow night. Projects can be dropped off after school today (Monday) from 3:15 - 4:30 or they can be brought in tomorrow morning between 7:15 and 8:20. Students will get to view the projects during the day with their class. Families are invited to attend in the evening. The night begins with math games in the classrooms (one room at each grade level) from 6:15 to 6:45. You can then view the projects in the gym from 6:45 - 7:45. Students should take their projects home with them at the end of the night. It is my favorite event of the year; I hope you can attend!
Thank you to our PTA for coordinating another fun night of BINGO for our students and families at CMS last Friday night. We had a great turnout! Shown below is Colbey Barth who was a winner of one of the raffles and got to call one of the BINGO games with me. Nice job Colbey!
This past Saturday night over thirty of our our East Hill 5th graders sang the National Anthem at the Syracuse Crunch game. Thank you to Mrs. Causer for arranging this exciting evening for our students!
Next week is spirit week at East Hill. Monday is West Genesee Day. Students should wear their blue and gold. Tuesday is Future Career Day. Students are encouraged to dress as they would look in their future career. Wednesday is Red Carpet Day. Students can dress up in their finest on this day if they would like.

Please remember that there is no school on Friday, 3/25.
Are you planning to travel outside the continental United States over spring break? If so, it would be wise to read these documents (click on links) that were provided to our district by the Onondaga County Health Department. The
first one is a letter from the county that discusses what the Zika virus is and precautions that should be taken. This
second document also discusses ways to prevent mosquito bites and provides a map and listing of countries where infestation has occurred.
This week's words of the day are
perimeter (M),
erode (T),
repel (W),
recycle (Th), and
embarrassed (F).
Have a great week!
