Empower Our Educators, Inc. is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization created to help empower educators in the Mitchell community by not only financially supporting some out-of-pocket classroom expenses incurred throughout the school year, but also recognizing those educators who go above and beyond on a daily basis.
Will you please help us spread the word about this positive organization and the
"Educator of the Month" program EOE has created to recognize the impact educators have on students, staff, and the community?

Look at this happy face who received a book from our vending machine to add to his library at home. You can help us keep our machine filled with some great books by participating in our Read- a-Thon. Information came home 2 weeks ago. Students may start bringing in their reading logs and Pledge sheets with their pledges beginning on MONDAY. I have already received all the prizes I ordered so students will be able to get their prizes AS SOON AS they turn in their pledge money.

Read A Thon has started. Please help us raise funds for our vending machine and the books we provide to students in them. Today our vending machine made 7 students happy. Those with birthdays and those who were drawn from day one of "I caught you reading" Make sure to keep track of all of your reading minutes. Medals in each grade level for the learner with the most minutes read will be given. Also a $50.oo gift card will be given to the top earner in BK-2nd and 3rd-5th grade. Classes in each grade level with the most money earned will earn their teacher $100 to spend in the Scholastic Catalog . No amount is too small. Students who raise even $3.50 can earn a prize. Students will get to spend 15% of their total earnings on prizes. Help us spread the love of reading. All funds and reading logs are due by November 23rd
