HS Bobcat Weekly Blast 3/6

High School
3.8.23

Good afternoon Bobcats!

At ERA we understand students must be signed out for appointments. However, students being signed out in the last 15 to 30 minutes of the school day has seen a steep increase in recent weeks. Unless you need your student released to make an appointment, please try not to keep end of the day sign outs to a minimum.

Thank you so much!

Bobcat Spotlight

In an effort to highlight our amazing staff and students we are initiating the Bobcat Spotlight.

Each month has a different character trait (March is Perseverance). When you see someone exhibiting this behavior then you nominate them using this link. You can also snap a picture if you like!

Both students and teachers can be nominated! Check out the bulletin board in the commons to see printed pictures and blurbs about how our nominated students and staff displayed the character trait!
