Congratulations EHS Cheerleaders!
|
|
We'd like to congratulate the EHS Cheerleaders! In early November, the EHS Cheer team won the Colorado 7 League Cheer Competition. Additionally, six of the athletes earned all-conference honors. Drew Martinez won Player (cheerleader) of the year and Head Coach Ginger Rode won Coach of the Year for the Colorado 7 League! We are so proud of their hard work!

It's hard to believe, but we are getting ready to break ground on our third construction project!
The Early Childhood Education Center at Maddox will celebrate the kick-off of construction with a groundbreaking ceremony on Wednesday, December 6 at 2:00 p.m. We hope you'll be able to join us for this fun event at 700 W. Mansfield Ave.!
