Our students make a difference!

I am so proud of our students who have participated in community service projects and activities this year.  Our students and staff have donated almost $1,000 to March of Dimes, collected 4,000 canned food items for the needy, and conducted a bloodmobile that collected 160 pints of blood for the America Red Cross.  There are so many more community service projects to mention.  However, our students and staff should feel real good about their accomplishments of helping our 800 square mile community. Congratulations!!

They're coming and going

What an exciting month of hosting Sophomore Visitations on November 30th through December 2nd, plus an Open House for the sophomores and parents of our Partner Schools on December 2nd.  We opened our labs and classrooms for all to visit and to get a taste of how EHOVE can be a part of their future. We would like to thank the guidance counselors and support staff from our partner schools for all their assistance and cooperation during this important activity.

During this time, current EHOVE students took part in several career exploration activities. During the 3 days, students attended workshops on how to get a job, finances, and health and wellness.  Students could have also job shadowed, worked for their current employer, participated in a community service project with a non-profit organization, and/or made college visits.
