Blind Date with a Book this week in the library! This is a fun way to learn not to judge a book by its cover.
The Ennis Close-Up group had their annual pasty making day on Saturday, February 1. This is a long standing tradition in our community and a great fundraiser for this group. These students and their advisor made 2,300 pasties, making Saturday a very busy day.
Today was a SuperBowl party theme in the lunchroom to celebrate the upcoming game. Students and staff wore their favorite sports team gear as well. We want to thank Tammy Wham and the kitchen crew for helping to make the lunchroom environment so much fun!
A great man was honored tonight at the home basketball games against Twin. The Ennis Booster Club presented the McKitrick family with the "Honorary E" in honor of Mel McKitrick, who served the students of Ennis for over 40 years as a driver and loyal Mustang fan. In addition, the softball fields and bus barn are now named, "The Mel McKitrick Memorial Complex." Very fitting to say the least.
Our January 20th PIR (pupil instructed related) day was a great success. Thanks to the Ennis Police Department for your help with safety procedures and protocols. Thanks to everyone involved and keeping safety a priority.

4th graders enjoyed a MT History presentation on Jan. 14th by Greg Smith titled "A Visit with an 1879 American Fur Co. Trader." Mr. Smith dressed in era-specific clothing and took on the persona of a fur trader Jim Deacons. The presentation was informative, colorful, and excellent!
