EAGLE FL ERDear Parents, Families and Friends,

Wow! I can't believe how fast the past two weeks went by. I hope

you all enjoyed a nice holiday break with your family.

Thank you to Andrea Merrin, Denise Mounce, Kristy Robison,

and Chairee Messenger for working so hard to make the Euper Lane

Cookbook a huge success! If you have not purchased your cookbook we

still have them available for sale. I would like to thank Andrea Merrin,

Kristy Robison, Lisa Clayton, Laura Blythe, Lisa Spears, Barry

Mounce, Mrs. Key, Mrs. Tynon, Mrs. Ford, Mrs. Orick, 6th grade

boys and the many volunteers that helped cook and volunteered their

time and effort for the first ever Taste of Euper Lane! The manysamplings of cookbook recipes were wonderful and a visit from Santa was

enjoyed by all. As a service project the Student Council provided gift

wrapping for the cookbooks. Thank you to the Student Council, Mrs.

Kincannon and Mrs. Pankey for providing this thoughtful service.

Mrs. Floyd and all of the second and third graders deserve a

round of applause for such a wonderful performance at the December PTA

General Meeting and Christmas Program. Thanks also to Maddie Petrus,

Aylin Espinosa and Matheson Ladd for leading us in the Pledge of

Allegiance at the December PTA General Meeting.

Thank you to everyone who participated in Reflections. Thank

you to Laura Blythe, Rachel McIntosh, Sara Carlisle, Ms. Glover,and Mrs. Willis for coordinating this effort. Euper Lane has so many

bright students. I know we will be well represented.

I want to remind you of a few things that we have coming up this

month. Our School Partner Fundraiser Kick-Off and Leadership Assembly

will be on Monday, January, 10th at 1:45 and 2:15 p.m. in the cafeteria.

The Geography Bee is Wednesday, January 26th at 1:15 p.m. in the

cafeteria. We will also celebrate the 100th day of school at the end of this

month.

As always, thank you for everything you do for our school!

Sincerely,

Jill Ladd - PTA President

We hope you enjoy this “mini” edition

of the Eagle Flyer.

The Flyer will be back next month with lots of cool student articles,

fabulous photographs, and amazing artwork!

WRESTLE THE TEST

Remember to visit us online at

http://www.fssc.k12.ar.us/schools/euper/fastfacts.htmor

Check us out on Facebook - just search for Euper Lane PTA!

Submissions to the Eagle Flyer should be made via email

to [email protected], or in paper form to the school office.

Deadline for submission is the 25th of each month.

In the next few weeks, Euper Lane

teachers, students, and staff will focus

their efforts and continue their hard

work preparing for the upcoming

Benchmark Testing on April 5-6 (K-2)

and April 11-15 (3-6th).

An assembly on March 16th is

scheduled to get the kids fired up

about doing their best. Over the

next two months, students will be

able to win chances to wrestle Mrs.

Penix and Mr. Hill at the assembly in

giant plastic sumo-suits (see picture below which I had a very difficult

time not emailing to my entire Euper Lane address book. Mr. Hill’s pic

will be featured in next month’s Eagle Flyer!). Students can win

chances in several ways: by improving their grades, by exhibiting good

behavior, and by good attendance.If you are interested in helping get ready for the tests, there are many

students who would benefit from one-on-one tutoring. If you are

able to volunteer your time, even just an hour a week, to help a

student in need, please contact Mrs. Penix.
