Eagan H S- Weekly Newsletter
May 3, 2024
Seniors in good standing academically, financially (no outstanding fees/fines) and behaviorally will attend a class meeting on Friday, May 10th and promise continued good attendance and behavior (no Senior Skip Day) during Senior Privilege time. This promise enables seniors to participate in a number of privileges, which includes not needing to attend the last three (3) days of school, which this year are June 3-5 thus making them exempt from Final Exams on June 4 and 5.
A friendly reminder that the Graduation Fee for seniors is due on Wednesday, May 8th by 3:00 p.m.
You may pay the $50 Graduation Fee online via MyPaymentsPlus.
Contact your counselor at EHS if this is a hardship.
We are looking forward to our second annual EHS Community Day on Wednesday, May 15. We will be altering our school schedule on this day to do the following things:
- Welcome our incoming Freshmen class
- Host an activity fair and provide tours for these 8th graders
- Show the Senior Awards Video during 5th period (afterwards it will be linked on our web site).
- Play the Amazing Race in the afternoon.
This day is a great opportunity for all of our staff and students to come together and celebrate an amazing year at EHS.
The afternoon portion of the day will be spent on the Amazing Race. Students will be going to their PAWS classes for 10 minutes after lunches and then may either go home or to the Amazing Race. We are very intentional about doing the race during the day to give our learners who ride the bus to school or may have to work in the evening a chance to participate. Our goal is to have over 100 teams participate in this event.

Students at Eagan HS will be asked to respond to a brief survey in their Social Studies classes sometime during the week of May 13-17, 2024. The purpose of the annual survey is to collect information from our students about their learning experiences specific to Social Studies. This is one feedback system designed to help our Social Studies teachers reflect on instructional practice using student feedback. The survey items are specific to the student’s learning experiences, e.g., do you think social studies is an important subject to learn in school; identify how challenged you are by the assigned reading; rate how well you think your social studies course teaches you to think critically by examining cause/effect relationships and/or by comparing similarities/differences, etc. High school student completion times are approximately 5 minutes based on last year’s data. Teachers will reflect on the data in their learning teams on August 21st during the Social Studies annual meeting.
Per District 196 policy, a paper copy of the survey is available in our main office for parents to preview if interested. Please contact Todd Beach (Lead Teacher in the Social Studies) if you have additional questions: todd.beach@district196.org.
