Good Afternoon Warrior Family!

This is Mr. Jones, the proud principal of EWHS. We hope each of you has had a wonderful weekend!

Tomorrow, September 1st, there will be no school for students and or staff as we celebrate the Labor Day Holiday. Take this extra day for some much needed relaxation.

We had a wonderful 1st week of school at EWHS! It was great to see all the students returning for the 2025-2026 school year and to see students actively engaged in their lessons and following school wide expectations. Beginning of the year class meetings were held this past week to review expectations and how to have a successful high school experience and year.

Here are a few announcements that we need to communicate to you all.

Thank you to the car rider parents for being patient as we navigate this new school year. As you know the first couple of weeks are always the toughest as we work out traffic logistics to ensure students arrive and depart campus safely and orderly. In the coming days, the NCDOT will be installing turn lanes in our carpool parking lot which will alleviate congestion with traffic and will ensure safe exits off campus are done.

Please be advised there will be no afternoon route for Bus 477 for the foreseeable future. Students who ride Bus 477 will need to arrange for alternate transportation home in the afternoons.

In the coming weeks, we will hold a Senior Parent Night, Junior Parent Night and English Language Learner Parent Night. We encourage you to participate in these opportunities as our counselors and school leaders will discuss important items to ensure your child is prepared to finish out their high school careers and to begin planning for post secondary education and plans. Information will be posted on our school website and Facebook pages in the near future.

EWHS Athletics are off and running. Here is the rundown of athletic events this upcoming week. On Tuesday, Men’s Soccer will host Ayden Grifton HS at 6:30. On Wednesday, Cross Country will have an away meet at SW Edgecombe beginning at 4:30. To wrap up our athletic week, Women’s Volleyball will have a home match against North Lenoir beginning at 4:30 on Thursday. We hope to see each of you out to support our Warriors.

Please mark your calendars for Monday, September 8th as we will hold our first Athletic Booster Club meeting in the Cafeteria at 6:00. Come and hear how you can be part of this club to ensure our Warrior Athletics are running strong.

As a reminder Cell Phones & Electronic Devices are not permitted during the school day at any time and must not be visible. This is a non-negotiable policy expectation.

Seniors, we have had a couple meetings this year concerning your Senior Trip which is scheduled during Spring Break 2026. We will be taking your first payment on September 15th. Be on the look out for emails from me with updates and reminders in the coming weeks.

We hope each of you continues to have a restful and safe weekend and we look forward to another great week. And as always…Warrior Pride! All Day! Every Day! Goodnight Warrior Family!

Good Morning Rising Seniors! I hope each of you are having a wonderful summer so far. Thank you to those students who were able to come out for their Senior Picture Day a couple of weeks ago. A few of you had asked about a make-up day. October 3rd will be the make-up day for Senior Pictures. These pictures will be taken during the school day. Go ahead and mark your calendars for this day. Thank you!
