EPHS PREVIEW NIGHT I DECEMBER 9 I 7:00 PM
Every student in Eden Prairie should be able to experience the excellent academics and opportunities available exclusively in our school district. On Dec. 9 at 7:00 pm, Eden Prairie High School will host a Preview Night for students and families that are considering EPHS and Eden Prairie Schools. If you are familiar with the high school, this Preview Night might not be for you. It is an introduction to EPHS and Eden Prairie Schools, and is separate from the course selection process for the 2022-2023 school year. Information about high school courses and options will be communicated directly to families and students starting in January.
TERM 2 VIRTUAL CONFERENCES
Conferences on Wednesday, December 15 will be virtual.
The online scheduler will open on Monday, December 6 at 6:00 pm. Please check the high school website for information on how to schedule.
STAFF APPRECIATION DONATIONS NEEDED
It’s the season of giving AND saying “thank you!” The PTO will host a special appreciation meal on December 15th to give teachers a boost during the long parent-teacher conference day and to show our appreciation during the holidays. You can help with a cash donation for food, beverages, goodies, and holiday cards. Visit ephspto.org/staff-appreciation/ to donate with PayPal or send a check to the school by mail or with your student. (Make check payable to EPHS PTO and drop off at South Entrance Office or mail to the school. Please include “attention PTO” on envelope.) Thank you for your generosity!
 
STUDENT DIRECTORY ORDERS
If you ordered a student directory earlier this year, your student should have brought it home by now! They were distributed to their Connections teachers a couple weeks ago so be on the lookout! We have a few extra to sell if you didn’t order and would still like one ($8 each). Please contact president@ephspto.org for orders or delivery issues.
