Good morning, EHE families.
The Culpeper Christmas Basket Food Drive is going strong! As of this morning we had collected over 2300 items to help our local neighbors in need. Our goal is to reach 3000 items by Monday. If every student brings in just one item each, we will reach our goal tomorrow!
Also tomorrow, Dr. Gelbert has challenged the EHE staff to participate in a Day of Giving to show our students how much this program means to our school. Teachers and staff will be adding their donations and sharing the totals to inspire our students.
Huge thanks to our amazing Eagle community for coming together to help make this program a big success!
