This past week, seniors in Mrs. Willhite's classroom have been channeling their inner Pablo Picasso. Advanced Biology students: Bethany Bergschneider, Mollie Allen, Sydney Tapscott, Madden Delaney and Callie Hughes came up with the perfect design! They decided to paint Rosalind Franklin, a key female scientist in the discovery of the structure of DNA, and a halo of DNA around her! They believe it's important to highlight the importance of women in science! Shout out to Madden Delaney with the amazing portrait skills.

5-5-21 Good afternoon Franklin. I wanted to update you on the condition of the East Grade building. Yesterday we had a structural engineer and an asbestos inspector in the building. The good news is that no asbestos was detected in the ceiling samples taken. The bad news is that we cannot use the building until the 4 ceiling areas of concern can be fixed. This means that all students from East Grade will finish the school year at the Jr-Sr High complex. The staff has worked tirelessly to make adjustments and to ensure a great educational setting is in place. We appreciate your flexibility and understanding during this event. I am confident that our staff and students will finish the year strong. Jeff Waggener Superintendent of Schools

Good afternoon Franklin, We will continue to have the East Grade students attend classes at the Jr-Sr high building tomorrow, Wednesday May 5th. East Grade parents will drop off and pick up at the front door of the high school. Please be assured that Staff will be greeting your students at the doorway and assisting them to their classes. I have had a structural engineer and an Asbestos inspector at East Grade today evaluating the situation. We should have results in the next day or two. I will keep you informed as the situation progresses. Thank you for your patience throughout this unexpected event. Jeff Waggener Superintendent

For parents picking up students in grades PreK thru 2nd grade, you will be picking them up in front of the Jr/Sr high building. If you arrive before the buses, make sure to park in a spot. Please do not line up or block bus traffic until after the buses have left the parking lot.

Good morning. Late yesterday afternoon, some plaster fell from the ceiling of a classroom at East Grade School. The drop ceiling caught the plaster and none hit the floor area. Today, in the interest of safety, we are moving all students and staff from East Grade to the Jr-Sr High building. This will allow us to take a better look at the extent of the damage and evaluate what our next steps will be. I will keep you informed as soon as more information is gathered. Safety of our students and staff is the foremost concern and will always drive our decisions. Thanks for your understanding during this time. Jeff Waggener, Superintendent.
