Huge shout out to our PTSO , Family, and Friends of Eastside towards beautifying our landscape.
Good morning Eastside Family, a message from your PTSO. During Open house Aug 1st and Aug 2nd you will be able to purchase Spirit Wear and Dress Down Day. Cash and Checks are acceptable. Also, if you made a summer purchase of spirit wear during the first window your items will be ready for pickup at Open house.
Parents/guardians:
It has been brought to our attention that some students have seen homerooms through google classroom or on Canva. Please understand, this is not finalized and changes are being made. The official notification of what homeroom and team students are on will come from an email from the student's homeroom teacher. Expect that email in the early part of next week prior to open house for your child's grade. Sorry for any confusion that may have been caused.
6th Grade Open House is on August 1st from 5:30-7:30 PM.
7/8th Grade Open House is on August 2nd from 5:30-7:30 PM.
