Congrats to the top finishers of our Math 24 challenge! Math 24 is a critical thinking game where students compete to quickly determine how four numbers can be utilized to yield the answer of 24. They can add, subtract, multiply, and divide to get the answer. PLUS! Thank you to Reagan, an Akron Elementary School fourth-grader, who made these awesome medals for the winners! Well done, Mountaineers!

This week, the students in the EHS Life Skills Support class traveled to Akron Elementary School to mentor fellow Mountaineers in an elementary Life Skills Support class. They practiced safety in the community by walking to W Donuts and social skills by playing games, interacting, and eating lunch together.





While some call it Teacher Appreciation Week, we embrace STAFF Appreciation Week at EASD. As this week draws to a close, we celebrate the commendable work of our entire Mountaineer team and the role they play in inspiring ALL students to reach their full potential. #MountsPride

On National School Lunch Hero Day, we are thanking our amazing food service staff for all they do! School lunches sure aren’t what they used to be… In fact, today EHS students sampled tamales, pepper jack pretzel bites, and mini chocolate lava cakes!
