Midweek Eagle Booster was a hit for our staff! A quick treat to recharge during the week.

Taco Tuesday + St. Patrick’s Day = the perfect combo. 🌮💚🍀 Our staff showed up in green to kick off the week in a fun, celebratory way.

Congrats to our Eagles of the Month! Ms. Christian and Mr. Peters do so much to engage students in learning and support their individual needs. We are lucky to have you both at Elko teaching our Eagles!

Our 7th grade students had the opportunity to visit the Hermitage ACE Center to explore future career pathways and hands-on learning opportunities!

Our students had an incredible experience visiting the GIANTS exhibit at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts! Experiencing large-scale art installations up close sparked curiosity, creativity, and meaningful conversations. @HenricoSchools

Exposing our middle schoolers to opportunities at Virginia Randolph Education Center helps them start thinking early about their passions and future goals. 💈✂️

You can’t help everyone but you can help someone. And if everyone helps someone we will help a lot!
