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.

ATTENTION Ellsworth Middle School Families,

We were informed of the need to adjust our normal traffic pattern here at Ellsworth Middle School during the Interim Days 8/25-8/27. This adjustment is due to unforeseen infrastructure work that will close Panther Drive and should not last beyond this week.

Details:

Morning Drop-Off on Tuesday 8/25 will function as usual.

Starting with the Pick-Up on the afternoon of Tuesday 8/25, we will relocate the Parent Pick-Up/Drop-Off area to the pool parking lot.

No cars will be allowed past the turn to the pool parking lot from 3:25 to 3:40 on these dates.

This will create an increase in congestion on High Point Dr., please use appropriate caution and patience in order to support safety during this modified traffic pattern.
