We are making a change to the start time of Friday night's performance of "Elf Jr". This will allow spectators the opportunity to attend both the play and the sectional football championship. "Elf Jr" will now begin at 6:00 on Friday. If you're attending the play Friday night, please park in the high school parking lots, so the football fans can park closer to the field.
Thursday night's performance of "Elf Jr" will remain at the original time of 7:00. Tickets for both nights of "Elf Jr" are still on sale! You can purchase tickets at http://ehstheatre.Ludus.com

Students are allowed to wear Halloween costumes to school tomorrow, but they must be school appropriate, and they cannot wear masks. 7th and 8th grade parents should pick their students up behind the middle school gym (on the hill by the tennis courts), and 5th and 6th grade parents should pick their students up in the car rider line at the end of the building closest to the football field.
