Elsberry High School

This week is College and Career Week! This is a great time to ask your child about their future plans.

Mrs. Gomel, high school librarian, want to remind everyone that Friends of Elsberry Literacy is still accepting used ink cartridges for recycling. FOEL uses all fundraising money to support free books to students. You can drop off your used ink cartridges in the HS Library. (Although we have no outlet for the Epson cartridges - sorry). Thank you!
