What to do with outdated t-shirts? EHS students in Clothing & Design classes created these quilts with Mini-Thon t-shirts from previous school years. They were then raffled off at the Mini-Thon Duck Derby to raise money for Four Diamonds! Nice work, 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.
