Anyone else see a DIAMOND? 💜🔶💜


Today we had our Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) kickoff assemblies with 5th and 6th grades. We have an awesome group of students at EIS and we are so happy we get to celebrate their hard efforts.



A great way to wrap up a terrific first week of school… Dr. Hornberger is inspiring
EIS students to “dream big, be kind & work hard!”
Best wishes for a safe & enjoyable Labor Day weekend! We look forward to seeing students back on Tues, Sept. 5.
