Dear EMS Families,

On October 15th, the Enumclaw High School German Club came to EMS, to promte EHS German, talk about the the many programs available, like the Exchange Trip to Germany; bring a little language and culture to our EMS students and share some snacks. This visit was part of an Initiative called SPARK.

The EHS Students planned an activity around Gummy Bears, asking the name, age and color of each gummy bear in German. They also shared Capri Suns (which come from Germany) and "brezel salat" which are mixed pretzels.

The turn out was wonderful, and the EHS German Club would like to come again. Keep an eye out in the newsletter for future activities.

Thank you EHS German Club!!

Halloween is coming soon!

Halloween Day is still a learning day, so the costume can not be a distraction or a disruption to the learning environment. The School Dress Code still applies, so make sure the clothes are an appropriate length and no inappropriate slogans. The following customer guidelines also apply:

No Blowup costumes
No Full Face Painting
No Weapons or Imitations of Weapons
No Full or Partial Facial Masks
No Beards or Partial face coverings
No costumes depicting violence, or extreme blood and gore
No dog collars, chains or spiked necklaces or bracelets

The Administration has the responsibility to preserve a safe, healthy and positive educational environment and therefore reserves the right to make the determination if any other types of personal appearance may be inappropriate. We reserve the right to ask any student to remove or change their costume.

A positive way to celebrate Halloween is to wear the colors ORANGE and BLACK.

This Saturday is National Drug Take Back Day!

Last year Washington residents turned in 16,565 lbs of medication during Take Back Days.

This event is a great reminder to turn in all unused prescription medication to one of the local blue receptacle bins available in our community. These are located at:

QFC Pharmacy

Safeway Pharmacy

St. Elizabeth Hospital

Black Diamond Police Department

Enumclaw Youth Empowered Coalition will be outside QFC this Saturday between 10:00am-12:00pm with information, resources and FREE prescription lock boxes/pouches!
