We knew that rescheduling the traditional Homecoming Parade on a moment’s notice would not work for our students or community partners, and many students would have been unable to participate.
However, we still want to celebrate together! We are excited to pivot to a Panther Spirit Parade on October 2, before our final home football game. This parade will celebrate our fall activities and give our students, families, and community another opportunity to come together and show their Panther pride. Community businesses and organizations are welcome to join the parade. All floats are to line up at Ellsworth Middle School by 4:45 p.m. The parade will start promptly at 5:00 pm and will follow the recently published (updated) parade route.

Last week, Kate & Becky called high school students and staff down between classes for a quick game of Ping Pong Toss!
Make it into a numbered cup and that was the prize you got to take home, filled with candy and maybe even a gift card! 🎁🍭
Just a fun little way to add some excitement to the day and celebrate 3rd Friday Count! Judging by the smiles, we think it was a hit! 💜🐾

💜 HOMECOMING PARADE ROUTE UPDATE 💜
Heads up, Panther fans! We have a small change to this year’s Homecoming Parade route.

📍 Same route, just a different starting and ending point!
Please take a look at the map for the updated direction of the parade and plan accordingly.
Thank you for helping us keep everyone safe, and we can’t wait to see our Panther community lining the route for Homecoming! 💜🤍🐾

EHS hosted it's Day of Service on August 26th during Interim Days this year- students went with their homeroom advisories to do a teambuilding service project. Some students made birthday gifts for Meals on Wheels, mulched St. Francis' playground, cleaned up Brown Field, built a display for the Ellsworth Chamber of Commerce, painted at Bethel's Basement Blessings and many other projects.
A special project this year was a car wash, hosted by the Science Department. Students raised money through free will donations for the high school BLT committee, which does special events throughout the year to support students and staff.
A huge thank you to all of the community partners, students and staff who helped make this event possible. In particular, a big shout out to Pierce Pepin Cooperative, which gave a Round Up grant for the day. Money was used to make door displays at the Ellsworth Care Center and Preferred Living, buy supplies for projects and door prizes for students who helped.
