Eubanks Named TBEC Honor Roll School

I was proud to take five teachers to San Antonio, Texas to represent Eubanks Intermediate at the 2009 Texas Business and Education Coalition Honor Roll Recognition Celebration. This is our fourth year in a row to receive TBEC Honor Roll recognition. Only 254 schools in Texas received notice this year (206 elementaries, 35 middle schools, and 13 high schools)! That's out of 8,317 schools in Texas. Wow! Thanks to our students, our parents, and our faculty and staff.

Pictured are teachers Janay Hunt, Lizzie Amick, Becca Calvert, Lindsey Thomisee, and Megan Von Dreau.

Celebrations at Eubanks...

We have reason to celebrate here at Eubanks Intermediate thanks to our students, parents, and teachers. Check out the photos of our students presenting thanks to the Southlake Police and Fire Departments on Maggie Lee Day. Pictured is Mrs. Hunt's class with our first responders checking out a fire truck and ambulance.
Also posted are several shots of our students and staff participating in the RES/EIS Walk for Diabetes at Rockenbaugh Elementary. Thank you to all of our learning community who came to raise money to fight diabetes!
Finally, congratulations to Julie McMurrey, Vicki Harvey, Jennifer Blazek, and Denise McCrummen for garnering grants from the Carroll Education Foundation. I'll include details in my next posting.
For now, thanks for helping make our school a great place to learn and work!

Maggie Lee Day

Wow! What an inspirational day we had on Maggie Lee Day as students throughout our school did something kind for others. Some acted as a group as Mrs. Hunt's class gave treats to Southlake Police Officers and Firefighters. Others acted on their own as they gave small gifts or notes to others. I was flattered and cheered when I received a few thank you notes from students and even a couple of cookies.

Give your student a pat on the back as they are working on making our school a better place to learn.
