Mr. Manosky hosted a Community Welding Night last week, and we had a fantastic turnout! More than 15 community members joined us to learn some basic welding techniques and get hands-on experience in the shop. 👨🏭
It was a great night of learning, trying something new, and bringing our school and community together!
A special shoutout to EHS student James Willenbring for stopping by and helping Mr. Manosky throughout the evening. We love seeing our students step up and share their skills with others! 💜

🔥🌲 Learning Outside the Classroom! 🌲🔥
Our 5th graders recently enjoyed an awesome outdoor adventure with Red Wing ELC!
Students had several activities to choose from, including outdoor cookery, fishing at the Alma Float, rock climbing, outdoor photography, and canoeing.
During outdoor cookery, students learned how to safely gather wood and start a fire with supervision. Then came the tasty part! They cooked over an open campfire, making bannock (pancakes with cornmeal), ham and cheese pudgie pies, pizza quesadillas, and banana boats.
What a great opportunity for our students to get outside, try something new, learn some hands-on skills, and make memories with their classmates!
A big thank you to Red Wing ELC for providing such a fun and memorable experience for our 5th graders! 💜

Friend drama, group chats, and your child
Friendships can be one of the best parts of childhood — and one of the most painful. If you’ve watched your child navigate friend drama, social exclusion, or the pressures of group chats, you know how hard it can be to know when to step in and what to say.
Join Cartwheel, our virtual mental health partner, and licensed counselor, author, and Washington Post contributor Phyllis Fagell, LCPC, for a free live webinar:

Creativity was everywhere in Ms. Hardy’s art room!
Ms. Hardy and her 8th grade art students have been busy creating, with THREE different projects happening at the same time! 🖌️✂️
It’s always fun to see so many different ideas, styles, and projects coming to life in one classroom. Our Panthers were hard at work and having some fun along the way!
We love seeing creativity in action at EMS! 🐾🎨

A heartfelt THANK YOU goes out to the Hudson Heritage Quilters for their generous donation to the Ellsworth High School Family & Consumer Science program! They helped us to fill our sewing cabinet with a variety of cotton fabrics for our students to use to construct projects each semester.
Your kindness and generosity make a meaningful difference in our classroom by helping our students with opportunities to continue practicing, developing, and perfecting their sewing skills. Every donation helps us create hands-on learning experiences that build confidence, creativity, and lifelong skills.
We are so grateful for your support of our students, our program, and the art of sewing. Thank you for investing in the next generation of makers!
If anyone is looking to pair down their stash of 100% cotton fabrics, we will gladly take donations. If we cannot use them we will donate to others who we know can.

If your child is missing a sweatshirt, jacket, water bottle, lunch box, or something else, be sure to check the Lost & Found during conferences.
📦 Anything left after October 9 will be packed up and donated.
Come take a look and help some of these lonely items find their way back home! 💜
