There are no words to thank our hardworking teachers, therapists, and staff who teach and support our students every day. There are also no words to thank our students for teaching us so much more than we could ever teach them.

Resilience Expert Tasha Schuh Will Present at Ellsworth Middle School on December 7, 2023 at 10:05 am, Addressing Mental Health
Tasha Schuh is an inspirational speaker who equips youth and educators to be resilient for their mental and emotional health. The four components of her speech, PATH (Purpose, Attitude, Team, and Hope), helped Tasha be resilient after a life-changing theater accident at age 16, which left her paralyzed from the chest down. She now lives a vibrant, fulfilling life, sharing her message of PATH across the nation.
Tashaās message will empower our Ellsworth Middle School students and staff with tangible tools to improve their mental and emotional health and overcome life's challenges. We are looking forward to welcoming Tasha to our school.

Help protect your children -- and their classmates -- when they're under the weather so that they can return to the classroom healthy and ready to learn. When your child is sick the best thing you can do is to keep your children home when sick.
This will help stop the spread of illness to other children and teachers.
Keep them home when they show any of these symptoms:
fever of 100 degrees F or higher
nausea or vomiting
severe headache
diarrhea
red, watery eyes with yellow or green drainage
undiagnosed rash
Children should stay home until they have been naturally without fever for at least 24 hours. Please do not give children fever-reducing medication and then send them to school.
