Today, we had our first school wide assembly for the 2025-2026 school year here at EIS. Students shared their knowledge of the EIS core values (take care of this place, each other, and ourselves), the role of our Peer Leaders, how to be nominated for Student of the Month, and bike safety, to name a few. This is our favorite way to kick off a new school year!

In recognition of Suicide Awareness Month, EIS students and staff participated in the “Colors of Courage” activity led by our Student Assistance Counselor, Ms. Wilson. Each student colored a shape to represent their current emotion, and together these pieces formed a mosaic poster. The activity reminded us that everyone experiences ups and downs and that it’s okay to talk about our feelings. By sharing and recognizing our emotions, we help build a supportive community where asking for help is a sign of strength: Courage Comes in All Colors.

This week, students attended grade-level meetings to hear from administrators and counselors about expectations for the school year. The discussions focused on how to build a positive school community by showing respect and being a constructive member of the school family.
School Resource Officer (SRO) Bernal also spoke to the students about hate speech. He defined hate speech, provided relevant facts, and explained the serious consequences of engaging in such behavior. Students were highly receptive, engaged, and participated actively by asking and answering questions.

Mr. Lazarow's ELA classes participated in an egg-citing activity! 🥚 Students used their creativity and teamwork to design and build protective houses for an egg drop. The goal? To create a structure that could safely land an egg without a crack. The results were incredible, and we loved seeing all the innovative designs.
