HAVE A VALENTINE? SEND A CANDY-GRAM

Student Council is selling Valentine candy- (and soda-) grams now through the morning of February 14th, to be delivered at the end of the day on Valentine's Day. Choose between Reese's peanut butter cups, Mountain Dew, Sprite, and Dr Pepper, and write a sweet note to go along with it, for $1.50 each. Students may purchase candy-grams during lunchtime. Parents are welcome to purchase them in the EMS office. 

BOGUS BASIN SKI TRIP

The second Bogus Basin middle school ski/snowboard trip will be February 17th. Registration is closed. Information for participants: The bus will leave shortly after school ends on Friday, by about 3:30, and return approximately 11:30 p.m.--12:15 a.m. (students will call parents when they are about ten minutes from school). Students may bring their extra clothing/gear to school on Friday and we will store it, or parents may bring it later in the school day if they wish. Some suggestions on clothing can be found right here. Students must also bring a sack dinner and/or money to purchase food at Bogus. Students must ride the bus home unless a parent is present at Bogus Basin to sign them out. (Notes from parents will not be accepted.) For any special circumstances, please call the EMS office at least one day prior to trip. Important: Don't forget to turn in the hard copy waiver that was given to your child. All fields must be completed. If you did not receive a waiver, call the EMS office. 

WINTER DANCE

The yearbook class will be hosting a winter formal/semiformal dance on Friday, February 24th from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. The theme is "Sweet Hearts, Positive Souls." Girls ask the boys (or just come anyway). A "Positive Soul" king and queen will be crowned for each grade level. Admission $3. Photos and concessions will be available.

The EMS After-School program (Monday-Thursday) is up and running. See the February schedule for a wide range of fun and enriching activities. All students are welcome to attend after school.
