The Flash is Eastview's weekly student news production. Check out the May 1st episode here.

Students can benefit from an opportunity for academic support every Wednesday afternoon from 2:40pm – 4:15pm in the Learning Commons. Students are supported to complete their schoolwork learning in a supervised setting. Faculty and staff are available along with upper-class peer tutors (especially skilled in Mathematics). Students will identify their priorities (“What I Need” or “What’s Important Now”), create a plan for the most efficient use of their time, celebrate their accomplishments, and leave with a plan for continued success. Students do not need to sign up in advance for WIN Time. We do ask that students plan to be there for the start at 2:40pm so they can benefit from the full support. We will keep a log of students and their engagement (arrival/departure time and their focus/work while they are there). For students needing transportation home, activity buses will be available departing at 4:45pm.

To opt in to EVHS and District 196 text messages, text Y to 67587. Carrier messaging rates may apply.

Students should stop by the Counseling Office and get a pass to attend the college/university/military Rep Visit prior to the right visit. The visits are small group meetings typically lasting 20/30 minutes. These admission reps are often times the same people that review college applications, so it's a great connection for students.

Tuesday at the Fountain Valley SSC #2, they ended in 2nd place as a team with Addison Schafer, Serafina Swanson and Megan placing 6th , 7th, 8th respectively. Wednesday at The Jewel, they had better weather and played better as a team. Haley Rasmussen PR’d with a 94 and Megan finished with a 79 securing a Tie for 7th place finish. The team ended in 4th against some very tough teams. Good Luck next week, Girls.

BOYS VARSITY VOLLEYBALL

The Lightning Boys Varsity volleyball team continued their great start to the season, winning all five of their matches this past weekend en route to the Big Bolt Classic championship.
