Open House Thursday!

Open House
Students and staff have been working hard to prepare for this Thursday's Open House which will showcase all of the things they’ve been learning and doing. We are celebrating our Open House from 7:00 – 8:00 p.m. This is an evening to bring the children and let them show you around their school. Let them tell you about and show you their projects, their writing, and their art work. It is always a special night. The PTA will also be holding their family BOGO Book Fair from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. Don't forget to visit the amazing art show in the cafeteria (sneak peek below).

We will be running two shuttle buses throughout the evening from the high school parking lot to East Hill. These buses will begin running at 6:45 and the last shuttle will leave East Hill at 8:05. Please park in the lot between the high school and Applebees. Buses will be waiting at the curb. The children especially enjoy taking their family for a ride on the school bus. As you are all well aware, there is very limited parking at East Hill.

Collegial Cafe
Last Thursday West Genesee teachers had their own sort of "Open House" where they showcased their work in the high school library. Several teachers from East Hill took part in Action Research as well as Collegial Circle projects. This truly shows their committment to lifelong learning.



Leadership
Leadership is this week's character strength focus. Leadership means that you value each member of your group and inspire people to do their best. For more information on leadership, click here.

Staff Appreciation
Thanks again to our wonderful PTA for all they are doing to show appreciation for our amazing East Hill staff! Staff is being treated to Reiki today as well as EFT tapping (whatever that is!). We are looking forward to our luncheon on Friday!
