Ornaments are $5.00 per ornament and all proceeds will support service projects for Builders Club and families impacted by the recent Waukesha Christmas Parade tragedy. Ornaments can be picked up in the EAMS office immediately after purchase or sent home with a current EAMS student. The last day to order ornaments is Friday, December 17, 2021, and they will need to be picked up in the EAMS office by Tuesday, December 21, 2021 (8:00am-3:30pm). Donations will also be accepted and can be earmarked in the comments for Waukesha or EAMS Builders Club. Contact Katie Sperle (sperka@elkhorn.k12.wi.us) or the EAMS office with any questions.

Team Andrew Shirts
by: Haley Croak
Andrew is a student at the Elkhorn Middle School. At 6 years old Andrew was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. DMD is a genetic disorder characterized by the progressive loss of muscle. It is a multi-systemic condition affecting many parts of the body which results in deterioration of the skeletal, heart, and lung muscles. Today, Duchenne's has infiltrated every second of every day for Andrew and his family. Andrew's parents, Joe and Gina, work incredibly hard to provide for their family and bring as much "normalcy" as possible into their lives. Four dollars from every shirt will go to help Andrew's family with medical bills and equipment that is very much needed. Shirts are available in youth sizes XS-XL and adult sizes XS-3XL. Shirts can also be purchased with cash or check at the middle school office. Please help support Andrew and his family.

Elkhorn Area Middle School Leadership
by: Kristin Kilkenny
Elkhorn Area Middle School Leadership groups provide students with opportunities to promote positive school climate, build relationships with classmates, and develop a variety of leadership skills. Students are members of Peer Mediators, 7th Grade Leadership, and/or 8th Grade Leadership and all work together to plan, promote, and conduct activities to build community within our school and raise money to attend Wisconsin Association of School Councils (WASC) leadership development conferences and camps. EAMS Leadership students work hard all year to raise scholarship money for WASC camps and conferences by selling concessions at various school and district functions. Every year, EAMS has more students interested in attending WASC events, but not enough funds to send all qualified and interested leadership students. We are always working on ways to enable more students the opportunity to expand and grow their leadership skills, abilities, and talents. Leadership Group has led school-wide Red Ribbon Week activities, March Madness dress-up days, Bullying Prevention activities, Mix It Up at Lunch events, Creativity Conference and Color Run concessions, and dances. Students who attend these WASC leadership opportunities bring back ideas and enthusiasm to improve and expand the programs we provide for all students at EAMS.
