Every school faces challenges at one time or another, but as Youngsville High School goes through this tough transition to combine with Eisenhower and Warren High, both schools are trying to make it as easy as possible to help them through it.
Youngsville high school students are coming to Eisenhower next year, and many scheduling opportunities are coming with them. The resulting influx of students at EMHS will allow more courses to pass the 12-student minimum to run. Mrs. Monica Linkerhof, the guidance counselor at EMHS, was interviewed by The Squire and commented, “Not only will we be gaining more students, but we will be gaining more teachers. This will be beneficial to all students because it allows EMHS to offer more selections of core courses as well as more selections of elective courses.”
As the year proceeds, many important events around Eisenhower continue to take place. The week of Valentine’s Day is known as Kindness Week, which is reminds students and staff of the importance of being a light in our community. Kindness week, which occurred February 10 through 14 this year, brings many things, like joy and happiness, and, for our school, a spirit week full of positivity.
