Dear Parents and Guardians, Please be reminded that East Hampton High School Back to School Night is Thursday, September 28th at 6 p.m. We encourage you to attend, as it is a wonderful opportunity to meet your child’s teachers and get an overview of their courses. If possible, please bring a copy of your child’s schedule and a copy of the bell schedule we will follow Thursday evening: Back to School Night Bell Schedule Please follow your child’s schedule for a “maroon” day. Study halls, lunches and gray day classes will not meet. That is a great time to visit your child’s counselor, the library, or the local organization booths in the Main Lobby.

Additionally, school psychologist Aimee Neuman will also be available. Guidance Counselors are available in the Guidance Office. Please feel free to stop in.

Additionally, we will have representatives from various East Hampton organizations in the Main Lobby. Please feel free to stop by these booths to get information about the various local groups that are available to support families and students. Not only are these groups a wonderful resource, but they all provide community service opportunities for our students. On a logistical note, Mr. Page’s automotive program will not meet at the new automotive space, rather his class will meet in the Boardroom during first period (6:16-6:24) We hope to see you Thursday, September 28th at 6!

Homecoming Postponed
Dear Bonac, Unfortunately we have to postpone Homecoming due to the impending weather forecast. Fear not, we have tentatively rescheduled all Homecoming activities for the week of October 16-21st. The details would be: Additional Spirit Days the week of 10/16 Leadership Breakfast = Friday, October 20, periods 1 & 2 Pep Rally = Friday, October 20 (same time) Dance = Friday, October 20, 6-9 Festival = Saturday, October 21, 11am Football Game = Saturday, October 21, 1pm (vs. ESM) The Town is unsure of when they are doing the parade. I will stay in touch with them; hopefully we will be able to coordinate the EH 375 with Homecoming. If we cannot coordinate with the Town as originally planned, we will go forward with planning our traditional Homecoming. We will work with the Student Association to include any additional events they are interested in. We can work those details out when we have more info. We will still finish the week of Spirit Days - Decades tomorrow and Bonac Pride on Friday! Additionally, all remaining sports will continue with their Homecoming Games. As of now, the football game scheduled for this Saturday is still on. This is an unfortunate turn, but HOCO Part Two in October is going to be great! GO BONAC! Mrs. Smith
