Parents of 9th and 10th grade EHS Students, Please be advised that your student received a form in their advisory class Thursday regarding a presentation they will receive on February 24th. This presentation is about the rising dangers of sextortion and how students are targeted - it will be presented by a detective from Elko PD in partnership with Great Basin Children's Advocacy Center. Even though this topic is highly relevant to today’s digital landscape and our goal is to provide students with information that promotes safety, awareness, and responsible decision-making, we understand that families may have varying perspectives regarding this content. Therefore, parents/guardians have the option to OPT OUT of the presentation for their student. Any student who opts out will be placed in a supervised alternative setting during the presentation time. If you wish to opt your student out, please complete and return the signed form below to your child’s Advisory teacher no later than February 24th. If you have any questions, please contact Principal Foss.
