Welcome back, Scotties! We are so excited to be starting the 21-22 school year! Some important information for our elementary families: FIRST DAY of school for students with last names starting with A-K is August 16. FIRST DAY of school for students with last names starting with L-Z is August 17. ALL students will be on campus beginning August 18. We will have many of the same Covid procedures in place as last year. Safety is always our first priority! Students will be screened upon arrival to school. Car riders will have their temperatures checked at their cars prior to unloading. Masks will be required for all students, staff and visitors. Visitors will only be admitted with a scheduled appointment. We are providing extra cleaning and disinfecting of the building throughout the day. Additional sanitizing is provided daily after school hours. Student handwashing is also built into our schedule. Student desks are distanced and desk shields are provided as an extra layer of protection. The district has implemented a clear backpack policy for all students. Mesh backpacks are fine. We are working to add a virtual option for K-12 families who would prefer remote learning. We are partnering with Edgenuity, and the majority of student instruction would be from the Edgenuity learning platform. Please watch for more information regarding this new option. We hope to see you all at Open House tomorrow from 3:00-4:30!

We enjoy duck hunting, swimming at the lake, fishing, and anything else that might include being outside. Clara and I enjoy jamming out to music whenever we get the chance.

Help us welcome our new Band Director to the district!! 🎼 “Hello all! My name is JonPaul Dean and I am joining Eureka Springs Schools as the new director of bands. I am excited to get started with my second year of teaching and sharing my love of music with the community. I grew up in Berryville, Arkansas until I finished 5th grade, after which I moved to Branson, Missouri and completed 6th-12th grade. In the summer of 2014, right after graduating high school, I auditioned and marched with Gold Drum and Bugle Corps as part of Drum Corps International. After completing my season with Gold, I attended college at Missouri State University where I received my BME in Instrumental Music Education in May of 2020. I was very active in music since arriving at MSU, participating in the MSU Pride Marching Band, Wind Ensemble, Orchestra, Jazz Studies I Ensemble, Trombone Choir, Trombone Octet, Trombone Quartet, and even two semesters in a euphonium quartet. In addition to playing in all of the top ensembles available to me, I had the opportunity to perform at the Missouri Music Educators Association conference, the College Band Directors National Association conference, the Kauffman Center in Kansas CIty, and in New York City with the Jazz Studies I Ensemble. As a member of the MSU Trombone Octet, I performed at the Midwest Trombone Euphonium Conference (Eastern Illinois University), in a special concert with the Trombones of the St. Louis Symphony (Sheldon Concert Hall), The Big XII Trombone Conference (Texas Tech University), and the American Trombone Workshop (Washington, DC). I completed my student teaching at Lebanon R-III School District in the Spring of 2020, but had worked with their band program for several years prior as a private lessons teacher and Low Brass Technician. My family lives in the area, so I enjoy being able to see them much more often. Some of the things I enjoy doing are floating the river in a kayak, cooking (especially if it’s something I’ve never made before), learning new instruments, and spending time with my Goldendoodle, Iggy. He is the sweetest, most energetic goofball of a dog- but he’s mine and I love him. I have been teaching myself guitar for a little over a year now, and I’m very much enjoying both the process and the instrument. If you happen to play, I would love to sit down and jam sometime."

Hello everyone! My name is Amy Maliska and I am joining the Eureka Springs Elementary/Middle School family as the new library media specialist. My family has just moved to the area from Foley, Alabama. I have been a public librarian for over 20 years and was the Youth Services Librarian at the Thomas B. Norton Public Library in Gulf Shores, Alabama for the last 10 years. My husband, Paul and I have 2 kids, Joshua (24) and Skylar (21). We enjoy going to the lake for jet skiing and boating, kayaking, hiking, and riding side-by-sides and getting dirty in the mud. I love reading and music and spending time with family. My husband grew up in Eureka Springs and most of his family still lives in the area, so this move is like coming home. I am very excited to start this new chapter in my library career and can’t wait to share my love of reading with everyone!
