Congratulations to the HES September student of the month, Emmett Moeller, second grade student in Mrs. Meyer’s class! Emmett is such a hard working student. He tries his best with his work. He encourages his friends often and helps others. Emmett is such a great joy to have in the classroom! Emmett’s parents are Walter and Anna Moeller.

Our PORK RIBS are in!!!!! Instead of the hamburger patty listed on the menu for Monday, we will have Pork Rib Patty on WG Bun. The rest of the menu stays the same. THANK YOU for your patience.
The middle school staff members chose 8th grader, Henry Nelson, as the September Student of the Month. Henry participates in Band, Football, Basketball, Track, Weightlifting, Student Council, and Quiz Bowl. Henry feels that he was chosen as the middle school student of the month because he has taken this year to focus on working hard in his classes, weights, and at football practice. He feels that he is friendly, kind, and helpful to his peers and his teachers. He is involved in school activities and represents his class on Student Council. Henry is the son of Dan and Andrea Nelson.

Second graders have been studying matter in science the past few weeks. They have learned that everything is made of matter and exists in 3 states: a solid, a liquid and a gas. They discovered that some materials, like shaving cream and object (cornstarch and water) can be two states at once! #backontrack




We were not able to purchase the pork rib patty for Monday. We will have hamburger patty on a bun instead. Thank you for your understanding!

Zoom link for the 26th. https://emporiastate.zoom.us/j/98048156373#success
Here are several documents that you will need to view and have some items completed by Friday October 22nd. Mainly have your FSA ID completed by that date. Refer to the video for this. Both you and a parent need to have your own separate FSA ID. Use the checklist to have items completed or ready for the night of the zoom. If you have questions during the zoom on the 26th, you will either tell them or type in that you have a question and you will be put into a separate room with a financial advisor to answer your question.
Everyone going to any type of schooling after high school will have to complete a FAFSA. So use this opportunity to get this completed.
Mr. Pritchard
