Weekly Art Winner

Light The Night

Light the night was a huge success! Over $5,000 dollars were raised to benefit EMHS. The students displayed some very high quality projects for Big Ideas. We reached our goal of lighting 5,000 luminarias and several were torched by unwitting students. Several parents commented on the beauty of the luminarias and praised the students hard efforts. The World Percussion Ensemble was the highlight of the night and played extremely well.

The Basketball Game!

The first game thet our basketball team played was against Mosquero. We won 33 to 26, but lost to Clayton High School, which was the home team. The other team that we played was Monte Del Sol which was won 71 to 39. Over all, our team came in third place.

Oh, and don't forget the fantastic performances that the EMHS music classes will do. Get your, wallets, purses, appetites, and prepare your ears for a rockin time.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!

On Monday night a snow storm crashed down upon us bringing thunder, lightning, and howling winds with it. The heavens opened up and brought forth a snow storm of monstrous proportions. This titan of a storm closed down school the next day and the treacherous ice bought a two hour delay on Wednesday. The snow gods truly answered the prayers of the students of EMHS with a vengeance.
