Bazaar & Carnival benefit SAFACT - Class of 2024

SAFACT is an all volunteer organization that puts on an all-night, off-site "SAFE PARTY" for Estacada High School graduating seniors. We provide food, games, prizes, and activities all in a drug and alcohol-free environment. This of course requires a lot of support from our families and our community at home and at large. Our next meeting is Dec 4th at 6:30pm in the Commons, we invite all senior and junior parents to participate.

We hold regular fundraisers to provide this event, with the goal to provide each student with discounted entry and at least one prize to help them start their college/adult life. We accept sponsorship and prize donations to help us provide the best possible event for our seniors. Your support saves lives and supports futures. Tickets for SAFACT is available for seniors at https://estacadasafact.square.site for $60 until April 15th when the price goes up to $75. Donations can be made through the same site which go to off set the costs and provide prizes and scholarships for students.

From the Oregon Department of Education in response to the Israeli-Hamas War:

It's likely students have been following these events, overheard conversations, and will continue to see images on social media. They will most likely be curious about the cause and impacts this war may have both globally and locally. To help students better understand this event and to place it in a broader context, we've gathered history/social science, mental health, and social and emotional learning resources to support teachers and families in assisting students.

It is also important to recognize that the adults in student's lives, including teachers, may also experience a range of emotions from the unfolding news reports and information shared by friends and family in the region. Please take care of yourself and seek support as needed.

REID Day attendance at EHS for September 29th was 57/195. Meaning 29% of our students who were invited to REID day attended REID day.

REID day is held most Fridays at EHS as a re-teaching opportunity for students who need more time to learn a concept or to accelerate deeper student learning with enrichment activities. Students are invited directly by their teachers for a specific purpose. Please, although this learning opportunity is optional, if your student is invited to REID day, make a point to attend REID day.

SENIOR PHOTOS are due February 1. They can be sent via email to Jordan Collins at collinsj@estacada.k12.or.us. All photos must be high quality and in portrait format. On the retake picture day, all seniors will take a Tux or Drape photo in case they do not submit a senior photo!

Life is full of distractions that keep us from performing our best.

Our expectation is that classrooms are cell phone free zones.

The classroom is a space for learning and engagement in preparation for a student’s next step in life. Join us in fostering this commitment to learning by:

• Talking with your student about their cell phone use in school.

• Be prepared to set limits and to collaborate with school staff in making learning a priority.
