**Mrs. Robinson shared the 1st semester attendance exemption list. In order to be on this list a student must have 3 or fewer excused absences and 2 or fewer tardies. If you clear obligations and have a C or better in a class you don't have to take that final. Mrs. Robinson also shared the senior community service list. In order to be on that list a senior must have 6 or fewer absences. If you clear obligations and are passing the class you don't have to take that final. Something new this year, that is separate from this list, is if a student has an A and now a B because of the student council food drive, regardless if you are on the attendance list, you are exempt from the final that you have an A or B in the class. This list has taken a lot of time to put together so there could be errors. If you think there is an error please stop by the Attendance Center. This list will also be updated for attendance daily.

Congratulations to Our Newly Certified Teen Mental Health First Aiders!
This semester, Mr. Duncan's 2nd & 5th Period Health Classes were certified in Teen Mental Health First Aid, guided by School Psychologist Mrs. Caraway and Interventionist Mrs. Venvertloh—both of whom are Certified Instructors.
With 48 additional students now certified, EAWR continues to grow a community that supports mental health awareness. These students gained vital skills, including recognizing warning signs, asking thoughtful questions, listening empathetically, connecting peers with trusted adults, and maintaining supportive relationships.
A heartfelt thank you to the Madison County Mental Health Board, our amazing students, and dedicated staff for working together to increase awareness, provide resources, and build a stronger, healthier community.
Our ESports program is searching for our next head coach. We have very competitive pay regionally for this position and just won the state championship for IHSEA in MarioKart. We have several other games where we are highly competitive and have a state of the art arena!
