Dear East Hill Families,
I want to remind everyone that there will be NO SCHOOL tomorrow, March 29, in observance of Good Friday.
We packed a great deal of learning and events into 4 days this week!
Tuesday was such a great day going "Around the World" with our string team! Our Grade 3 students were treated to a special performance by our fantastic Orchestra teachers Mrs. Adele, Mrs. Berner, Mrs. Cheney, Mrs. Mercer, Mr. Mercer and Mr. Reardon. The students were able to hear and see all of the string instrument options they will have the opportunity to play starting next year!
We would also like to thank our WGHS French teacher, Mrs. Lonergan for bringing her students to East Hill to teach French to our third grade students on Wednesday! Our Wildcats LOVE having the older Wildcats visit and share their knowledge with us. Merci beaucoup!
Our fourth grade students performed a science investigation this week called Light it Up. The students had to build closed circuits and make light bulbs light while problem solving and answering questions. We had support from our district Math and Science Coach, Mrs. Jessica Fisher, and our retired assistant superintendent, Mr. Brian Kesel!
Thank you again to our PTA for purchasing solar glasses for all students for the eclipse that will be taking place on Monday, April 8. Our students brought home a form with information about the certified glasses as well as a permission slip that can be returned to school by Wednesday, April 3. Students that return the slip will be given the glasses to take home on Thursday, April 4 for the eclipse.
Thank you to our PTA for working hard to reschedule our Makerspace event for Saturday, April 6. There are more details on a flier below and we hope to see you there!
Wishing you all a wonderful long weekend,
~Susan
