On National Employee Appreciation Day, we are sending a massive shout-out of appreciation to our Mountaineer team who consistently go above and beyond every day to support both students and their colleagues. Thank you, Mountaineers, for your exceptional efforts!

The Shadow A Student Challenge was in full swing this week as EASD administrators collaborated with students to explore the question: What is it like to be a student for a day? Engaging with empathy and an open mind, administrators actively embraced the student perspective. They will subsequently reflect on these experiences to ensure that #EASDLifeReady learning is successfully carried out.

Reminder: There is no school for students Friday, February 16 - Monday, February 19. We look forward to seeing students back in school on Tuesday, February 20.

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.
