EVSC

"What's Happening with Dr. Hoover" returns to Scott and Hebron Elementary to check in with the kindergarteners we met at the start of the school year. It's amazing to see how much they've grown in just one year. From mastering math problems and reading chapter books to making new friends and learning about writing, these students have come a long way since August. Hear them reflect on their favorite parts of kindergarten and what they're looking forward to (or not so sure about) as they head into first grade.

Grateful to Evansville Rotary and Liberty Federal Credit Union for supporting more than 20 of our schools and programs with their Classroom Enrichment Grants! Thank you for supporting our students!

Join us in a massive round of applause for the North Wind Ensemble! This weekend, they placed 6th overall at the ISSMA Concert Band State Finals! Unlike marching band or many high school sports where schools are divided into classes based on size, ISSMA Concert Band State is a completely open field. Every single high school in the state competes head-to-head. Securing 6th place out of the entire state is a monumental achievement. To top it off, this 6th place finish sets a new school record for the band program and marks their third straight year finishing in the Top 10! 🏆 We are incredibly proud of hard work and dedication of these students and their directors!

Every fall, thousands of students walk into an EVSC school for the first time. Thirteen years later, they walk out as scientists, artists, tradespeople, leaders, and everything in between. That journey doesn't happen by accident. It happens here.

And thanks to @evvregion for sponsoring this event!

Today was Signing Day. More than 130 EVSC seniors stepped up, signed their names, and made it official. A job, a career, or a path into the military is waiting for them the moment they walk the graduation stage. Same pride and handshake from someone who's already counting on them, just with a future employer instead of a college coach. More than 50 area business partners joined this year's @OptIN_EVSC Signing Day, ready to welcome these students into the workforce. The first one back in 2019 had 7 businesses and 31 students. The growth speaks to the strength of our community and the talent of our seniors. Congratulations, Class of 2026. We couldn't be more #EVSCProud!

"There is sometimes a perception that excellence lives somewhere else." In her first State of Our Schools address, Dr. Hoover introduced us to Ava - an EVSC senior collaborating with an Alzheimer's drug developer and a research lead at Eli Lilly before she's even started college. And Ava's experience isn't the exception. Watch the full presentation on YouTube: youtu.be/ANOpQibxuEk

CONGRATULATIONS!

Congratulations to McCutchanville, Oak Hill, and Scott elementary schools for being recognized by the Indiana Department of Education! These schools successfully surpassed the state's goal of at least 95% of students passing the state's IREAD assessment!

We are incredibly proud to announce that three of this year's four Outstanding Educators of the Year are right here in the EVSC! 🎉 🏆 Building Principal of the Year – Andrew Freeman (Central) 🏆 High School Teacher of the Year – Maren Smith (North) 🏆 Elementary Teacher of the Year – Holly Carey (McCutchanville) These educators were selected by a committee of educators, community leaders, and business professionals through a rigorous process that includes classroom observations and interviews. Out of every teacher and principal across all of Vanderburgh County, these three rose to the top, and that says something powerful about the caliber of educators serving our students every day. Congratulations to Andrew, Maren, and Holly for representing the very best of what happens in our schools. We couldn't be more proud. ❤️ Thank you to the University of Evansville, Liberty Federal Credit Union, and the Courier & Press for sponsoring this program and helping recognize the educators who make such a difference in our community.

In this episode of "What's Happening with Dr. Hoover," we go behind the scenes with EVSC Summer Musical students as they prepare for this summer's production of "Titanic the Musical." From ballet fundamentals and vocal techniques to acting workshops, cast members, crew, and orchestra are all collaborating to bring this story to the stage. This production also marks an exciting change: we're now the EVSC Summer Musical Company, reflecting our commitment to giving students a theater experience that prepares them for the highest level of performance. Hear from our director, who brings Broadway experience to the program, and students who are discovering their passion for the stage. Performances are June 11-14th!
