2021-2022 Recap and Glimpse into Next Year

2021-2022 PTA Summary Fundraising: We held multiple fundraising events: Peach Sales, a Halloween Dinner and Murder Mystery, ongoing concession at home sports games, and finally a bake sale. We also received an anonymous donation and two donations to be used toward Battle of the Books. Events: Concession Stand: the most ongoing service we provided was staffing the concession stand for home games. This provided fans with a consistent option to buy snacks, drinks, and food at the games. PTA kept a number of proceeds from this service, however, if the EHS Junior Class provided baked goods to sale during the game, PTA gave all the money earned to the Junior Class. PTA paid for all other consumables in the stand regardless of which organization retained the money. Lit Jam: The Lit Jam Committee headed up by Robbin Peterson and Karen Munson was a mini writing conference for students 5 th -8 th  Grade from EHS, EES, and Boulder Elementary School. Students spent an afternoon attending various w

PTA vs Community Council

 In our local school system there are two formal organizations where parents and community members can have a voice at the education table at the school. PTA and Community Council. These two groups fill different roles in the school. Escalante Schools PTA focuses on assisting teachers and students with activities that support school goals. The PTA in Escalante supports both Escalante Elementary and Escalante High School and we strive to be the bridge that connects the school with the community. The activities we’re focusing on this year is the subject of another blog post, but in a nutshell, we’re around to help out in fun ways.

The Community Council is a much more formal board and every school must have one by law. Both Escalante Elementary and High School have a separate Community Council. So, what is a community council?

EES Construction Frequently Asked Questions

*Edit 01.24.2022 6:30pm--I have since learned the outdoor stage at PES was cancelled. I also want to note that the extra construction projects were planned in conjunction with the building of PES to get the best pricing from contractors for projects that needed to be completed anyway.* *Edit 01.24.2022 6:41pm--Information about the Voted Local Levy listed below.* *Edit 01.24.2022 9:38pm--Looking over the 2016 VCBO Report of the old PES and BVES and their seismic problems (how could EES built around the same time be seismically sound where the others are not) and Thursday's Hughes builder report on the "un-reinforced masonry"leads me to believe the original report was incomplete. 1975 was the first year where seismic standards were in place. Our building was built in the 1950's. I will research this further. *Edit 01.25.2022 11:30am--added a new section on the costs to the end of the post. Added up total enrollment for EES to 108 students. *Edit 01.25.2022 12:14pm--Mr.
