Following Eldorado's Outdoor Code of Conduct Expectations
A reminder to all of the wonderful students here at Eldorado Public School:
As listed in the Code of Conduct that was given to every student at the beginning of the school year, all students must abide by the following expectations during outdoor play:
(Teachers please take a moment to review these expectations with your students)
Please remember that snow is to remain on the ground at all times. It is also very important to keep your hands, feet and objects to yourselves. It is always great to see our students engaging in positive play while being respectful of one another and the rules.
Thank you to those who have been following these expectations and to the many students who have also been wonderful leaders by encouraging their peers to play safe. You have been excellent role models to your fellow Eldorado Eagles. Keep up the good work! 😊
Jr. Boys Basketball
Tryouts will take place this Wednesday & Thursday from 2:40pm-3:40pm. All those attending are asked to fill out a permission form (available on Tuesday) and to sign up. Please make arrangements for parents to pick you up promptly after each tryout.
