Volunteers Needed

I am in need of a few students to volunteer next week, Monday evening to give tours of Evans.  We will be hosting the Unit 5 Music Parents meeting here at EJHS and I would like to have students lead the attendees on a school tour.  I would need the volunteers from approximately 645-730 p.m.  Please let me know if you/your student are available. Thanks ~ Mrs. Boyd

Spaghetti News....

Just found out that they WILL NOT be offering marinara sauce at the Spaghetti Supper on Monday night.  Instead they will be offering buttered noodles to those who do not want the meat sauce.  I am sorry for this confusion and inconvenience.
