Attention! Do you have missing library books? We still have over 480 books checked out or missing! That’s $4,521 dollars in books that the library will lose if they aren’t returned. So look everywhere! 4 days left to get them in!
Do you want a chance to pie-face Mr. Siegelin, Mr. Pogue, or Mr. Gallagher? Here is your opportunity, so listen up:
Edgewood High School Girl Scout Troop #03652 will be in the gym and coming to homerooms next week on Monday 5/15 and Tuesday 5/16 to sell chances “two-for-a-dollar”, so bring cash! Simply write your first and last name on the back of the tickets and place them in the buckets for whom you want to pie-face. We will draw a ticket from each of the three buckets on Thursday 5/18 and notify the winners. Then, on Friday 5/19, everyone is invited to come to the gym before school to watch the three get pie-faced. Watching is FREE. All proceeds will support our own EJHS Health Office.
There will be a meeting regarding the 2023 Washington DC Trip on Wednesday, May 17th at 6:00 pm in the Multi-Purpose Room. Enter through door 16.
On May 19th from 4-6 pm, EJHS is hosting a powerlifting meet. The event is free, and all people in EJHS can join.

Come on out and see who is the strongest!!!
Save the date for our spring 2023 EJHS STEAM Showcase! The evening will feature band concerts, an art show, an EdgeMedia viewing party, interactive student projects, displays and games, robotics demos, an EdgeShop sale, and even a life-sized cell model to walk through!
