We want to ensure that all students have a safe way to get home at the end of the school day. Please contact the office before 3:00pm if there is a transportation change for your student. Also, please make sure that teachers are aware of how your student will be getting home everyday and, when possible, establish a consistent routine for end of day pick up. This will help staff get your student to the correct spot at the end of the day. Thank you!
Earhart staff are modeling behavior expectations for students. Students rotate through various stations learning about how to make good choices and be safe. Some of the rotations include the restroom, assemblies and bus.
The Eisenhower High School Cheer Squad is pleased to announce that they will be hosting a “Little Cheer Camp.” This camp is open to any student 1st-6th grade. Please see the flier for more information.
