School nurses are...
"Always right there to give comfort and care. Steady and wise when temperatures rise. Compassionate, kind, and a medical mind. Skilled and alert when people are hurt. Helpful and nice when giving advice.
Poised and at ease around folks hard to please.
Dependable, sensible... and, yes- indispensable!"
We are so thankful for our health clerk, Mrs. Sara Blansett!

Whats up at EI?! We are so excited to bring our "Best Buddies" program back this year!
This morning we had an assembly with Essentials/Concepts teacher, Mrs. Click and the regional director of the program to learn all about it!
Best Buddies fosters one-to-one friendships between our students with and without intellectual and development disabilities creating an inclusive culture for all!
Students will have a chance to sign up and volunteer to be a part of this wonderful program! Learn well. Live with honor. Go Spartans!
