Today is our annual Junior Achievement Real Life Forum for all EHS juniors to explore real-world budget scenarios and participate in financially-themed activities. While working with a "financial advisor,” students balance a monthly budget based on a fictitious family, salary, credit score, and debt to make savings and expense decisions. Students are also introduced to a variety of additional topics, including obtaining insurance, making key life decisions, and being aware of product pricing.
Thanks to our community volunteers for making this a successful event every year!







Our indoor track state-qualifiers are gearing up and ready for the state meet on Sunday. This talented team of athletes bring us much #MountsPride. GO MOUNTS!

Our hearts go out to the EASD families and community members impacted by today's fire at Martin's Country Market. We are grateful to the hundreds of firefighters and emergency personnel - many who speak regularly in our classrooms - for the bravery and grit they showed today.
We support a resilient Mountaineer community and believe in the strength and empathy that will prevail.
