- We would like to take a moment to inform everyone that Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, will be observed on October 11th and 12th. This important Jewish holiday is one of the holiest days in the Jewish calendar and is a time for reflection and prayer. It concludes the ten days that begin with Rosh Hashanah. Yom Kippur is observed with a 25-hour fast, beginning at sundown and ending at nightfall the following day. It is a time for individuals to reflect on their actions over the past year, seek forgiveness, and make amends with others. For those in our school community who are observing Yom Kippur, we recognize this time for personal reflection and spiritual growth.
Clubs:
- A new student-led club is starting soon-Baking Club! This club will allow students to show their baking talent. For anyone that is interested, the club will meet this Monday, Oct 14th and will meet every Monday and Thursday from 3:15 until 4:30 after that in Room 300.
Athletics
- Cross Country ended yesterday with a fantastic race at Spring Canyon Park. Our girls had two finishers in the top 10 and took second place overall! Our boys had four finishers in the top 10 and took home the district championship!
- Today, we celebrate all of our Fall Athletes with a Parade of Champions! All students who participated in Tennis, Cross Country, Volleyball and Football will report to the gym at the end of 8th period. Listen for an announcement toward the end of 8th hour, we’ll call you out of class with a few minutes left. At the start of ELO all classes will step into the hallway and cheer on our athletes as they walk a lap through the building.
