Easton Valley Community Schools

We'd like to thank Taelyn Shannon's family for donating money to our classroom in memory of Taelyn's Aunt Erin. We decided to purchase 4 new library pillows which are a classroom favorite! Thank you Shannon Family!

Thank you to Vision to Learn for providing glasses to some of our students today to help them with their daily learning experience!

📜✨ From Students to Scribes! ✨📜

Our 6th graders wrapped up their Ancient Mesopotamia unit by stepping into the role of a Mesopotamian scribe! Students used clay tablets to carve their names in cuneiform, one of the world’s earliest forms of writing. 🏺✍️

Their finished tablets are now on display in the library for everyone to see! Be sure to stop by and check out the amazing work our young historians created. 🏛️

Great job, 6th grade scribes! 👏📚

This Friday, October 9th, is Tackle Cancer night at our home football game. We are asking that students wear pink to school on Friday, and for a $1 donation can wear a hat for the day! Students will pay their $1 to their teacher in the morning and the proceeds will go to Cassie Behr & Family to support with her treatments!

LEAP week of October 5-9

These second graders in Ms. Ralston's class met their September WIG of reading 300 minutes! They earned eating lunch in the classroom and upgraded ice cream sandwiches! Keep up the great work! 🎯✨👍

🎬 What a night! 🎬 Our Fall Movie Night was a success! We had an amazing crowd, with long lines at the food trucks! Thank you to everyone who came out, grabbed some food and enjoyed the movie. We hope you had a good night! Thanks to Boars Nest and Cone Zone on Wheels for the great food as well as our Student Lighthouse Team for the coupons! Share your pictures below! 🧡🩶 🧡🩶 🧡

4th Grade had their "Sip and Share" coffee shop day. We enjoyed drinks and activities themed around some of our readings from or first unit in ELA. Thank you to all the parents who were able to donate supplies to help make today happen! Special thanks to Preston Perk for the donating of energy drink cups to complete our coffee shop vibe!

Kindergarten has been learning about the 5 senses in their knowledge unit. Mrs. Kilburg's class got to smell some different odors and decide if they were pleasant or unpleasant and try to guess what they were. Our scents were cinnamon and peppermint.

6th grade families came yesterday for our first Family Engagement Hour of the year. Next month we will welcome 4th grade into the building to connect with their child's learning!

Coming home with elementary students today is a letter for families to signup for parent-teacher conferences, which are October 28 & 29. PAC 4 KIDS will be selling ice cream sandwiches both nights for $1 as well!

Coming home tonight with every EVES student is an at home reading log, as well as an informational poster for families. An initiative in our building this year is to increase students literacy, and we are looking for family's support in doing this! Each month a different reading log will be sent home with all students, as well as a monthly at home reading challenge. October's challenge is to capture a picture of your child reading in their Halloween costume. You can send your photos to your child's classroom teacher to be posted on our building TV's. You can also comment and attach your photos to this post as well for the community to see! Let's make reading fun and an important part of each day :)

If your student plans on attending University of Iowa, Iowa State University, or University of Northern Iowa, review their RAI score to make sure they qualify for application.
