Now that we are back in the swing of school here are a few things to keep in mind for the up and coming week. 1- If your child is competing in an extra curricular activity, make sure they return their activity handbook sheet signed by parents. 2- Also make sure your child has turned in their physicals paper work to the office! They can not practice or play in any activity until that has been turned in to the office. Thank you, have a GREAT year!!

Elwood Public School is going to be having our weekly "High-Five Friday" event throughout this school year! Each Friday that school is in session, a group/organization will come to the school to greet and give "high-fives" to the students as they enter the building in the morning.
A link to a sign-up form with the dates available for High-Five Friday for this school year is provided below. If your organization happens to be represented during a celebration week that takes place (EMS Week, Fire Safety Week, etc.), please feel free to sign up for a Friday that corresponds accordingly. Otherwise, please feel free to sign up for any Friday you wish!
This High-Five Friday event presents a wonderful opportunity for our students to make positive connections within our school and community! Thank you so much for being willing to have your organization represented and participate in this event! :)

Dear Parents/Guardians,
Because medical costs can be expensive, Elwood Public Schools does provide families the opportunity to purchase student accident insurance on their student through Student Assurance Servies, Inc.
This supplemental policy would assist with your out-of-pocket medical expenses (i.e. deductible) should your student sustain an accidental injury while coverage is in effect. Also, if you do not have any insurance on your student, this would be primary for accidental injuries. There is a variety of coverage options and premiums are a one-time payment for the school year.
Please review the short video link below as well as the attached forms regarding student accident insurance.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yJJc4Ls1cYIf you have any questions about this coverage, please contact Student Assurance Services directly at (800) 328-2739.
Sincerely,
Daren Hatch
Superintendent

Last night we celebrated kids in grades 7-12 who made 80% of weights this summer. We fed the kids a steak dinner for their efforts out at the Bartruff family cabin at Johnson Lake. We'd like to thank Mr. Wetovick and Mr. Schmidt for their efforts to put all of this together. We'd also like to thank Zach Jenner and High Street Insurance for donating the steaks along with Jeff & Katie Loshonkohl, Mark and Katy Weissert, Lacey Parker and The Chip for donating things to the outing as well. We are super proud of all of those that put in the time and effort this summer to get better. Another great summer for the Bulls. Good Luck to all athletes for the upcoming season! #gobulls
