Mix-it Up Day and Honors

It was another exciting week at Eubanks Intermediate School! We started off the week with the EIS Student Council-sponsored 'Mix It Up" Day. Kids and teachers wore mixed up clothes...just for fun. Here are a few of our 'mixed up' teachers.

Last Friday evening, while working the Dragon football game (Go Dragons!) I was notified that Eubanks was named a Texas Business and Education Coalition (TBEC) Honor Roll School for the sixth year in a row. This is an exciting achievement as more and more schools are dropping off the list. Each year the standards for inclusion have increased in difficulty while at the same time the state tests have increased in complexity.

A cadre of teachers will attend the TBEC Honor Roll Gala in Dallas this December. Kudos to the students, teachers, and parents of Eubanks for their efforts in making this a great school in which to work and to learn.

Fun times at Eubanks Intermediate


The 2010 - 2011 Eubanks Student Council, under the direction of Mrs. Katie Bonnette and Mrs. Lisa Gilbert, were recently named as a NAESP National Honor Council. The current StuCo was presented their award during a StuCo meeting. Also, Mrs. Bonnette and Mrs. Gilbert received plaques recognizing their contributions to student leadership. Thanks, StuCo!

Pictured are Mrs. Lisa Gilbert, Mrs. Bonnette, and the 2011 - 2012 Eubanks Student Council Officers.

It was great to see so many Eubanks 'grads' at the Dawson Middle School Dragon Bash. Thanks to Mrs. McKeel and Mrs. Bullock for taking turns in the dunking booth. Our own PTO President, Mrs. Neda Khalilian, assisted at the dunking booth...I think she had a little too much fun watching our teachers taking dunks.





Here I am enjoying my visit with former students of Eubanks Intermediate. I was so glad to see the growth of these young Dragons!
