Education Fair A Success

Education Fair
The Education Fair was another huge success this year! We had over 120 students participate, completing over 80 science and reading projects. Thank you to everyone that was able to attend the Education Fair as well as to all of the parents that helped support their children in putting together a project. Thank you to Mrs. Diddle for putting this short video together!
Positivity Project
This week's character strength focus is fairness. Fairness means you believe that all people have value. You approach situations with an unbiased mindset and tret everyone with respect. Cultivating the character strength of fairness helps people to become trustworthy friends, responsible citizens, and generally moral people. To learn more about the character strength of fairness, click here. Yesterday, groups pictures were taken of students and staff according to their top strength. Pictured below is Fairness.
Student Council Paper Towel Drive
The Student Council ran a very successful paper towel drive for the Francis House. The idea for this project came from Nicole Tessier, a West Genesee High School Senior, who is the youth board Vice President at the Francis House. Thank you to everyone that contributed paper towels and/or financial donations. We collected 253 rolls of paper towels and over $300.00!
Survey Says!
An important part of our East Hill Vision is to continuously reflect on and look for ways to improve our practice. It would be really appreciated if you could take a few minutes to complete this short survey about our school. With your honest feedback we can work to improve the areas in need of improvement, and celebrate our areas of strength. Thank you for completing this anonymous survey!
