Get those poms ready! 📣✨ The Little Indians Cheer Clinic is back, and you do NOT want your mini-cheerleader to miss out on the most high-energy weekend of the winter!

🎀 Why You Need to Be There:
This isn't just a clinic—it's a chance for your PreK through 6th grader to learn from the EHS Cheerleaders, master new jumps, and perform a routine under the big lights! Plus, every participant gets their very own t-shirt and poms for the game.

⏳ Don't Wait!
SignUp Sheets are heading home THIS FRIDAY (1/9). These spots fill up fast, so make sure to check those backpacks and get your forms back ASAP!

🗓️ Mark Your Calendars:
Clinic Day: Saturday, Feb 7th (10:00 AM - Noon) @ the High School.

Showtime: Monday, Feb 9th! Watch your athlete shine in the cafeteria for the big performance. 🌟

💰 Cost: $25.00 (Cash or Check to Elsberry R-II)

Don’t let your little one be the only one missing the spirit! If you have questions, reach out to Mrs. Turner at rturner@elsberry.k12.mo.us.

Let’s go, Indians! ❤️🖤🤍

Winfield Tribe Athletics is excited to share that we will be offering an extended 8th Grade Boys & Girls Basketball Season through the CNR league this winter. We would like to extend this opportunity to surrounding school districts and their athletes who may wish to continue their basketball development beyond their school season. To clarify MSHSAA eligibility: Athletes who are currently participating in an active MSHSAA basketball season are permitted to attend and try out with Tribe Basketball; however, they may only begin participating in practices and games once their official school season has concluded with their home district. We fully support MSHSAA guidelines and appreciate cooperation from families and district programs. Tryout & Sign-Up Night: Tuesday, December 16th, 2025 5:00–7:00 PM Winfield Middle School Athletes must be present to secure their spot. Our goal is to provide more opportunities for players to continue developing their skills, increasing their court time, and preparing for high school-level competition. We proudly welcome both Winfield athletes and surrounding district athletes who are looking to continue playing during the winter season in a structured, supportive environment. We kindly ask for your help in sharing this information with your 8th grade athletes, families, coaches, and athletic departments. If you have any questions or need additional details, please feel free to contact us. Thank you for your time and support. We look forward to working with athletes across the area who want to continue their basketball journey. Warm regards, Winfield Tribe Athletics Alan Moran- President

📚 Yearbook Hunt: Help Us Find 1964! 📚

We need your help, Elsberry Community! We are SO close to completing our historical collection of Elsberry High School Yearbooks! 🤩

We are currently missing just ONE yearbook: the 1964 edition.

We would love to display a copy of the 1964 yearbook in the High School office alongside all the others, but we haven't been able to locate one yet.

Do you, a relative, or a friend have a copy of the 1964 Elsberry High School Yearbook (or know where we might find one) that you would be willing to donate?

If you have a lead, please contact the Elsberry High School Office during business hours!

Let's complete the collection together! Go Indians! 🧡🖤

🦃 Help Us "Sponsor a Bag" for a Turkey Dinner! 🥫
School Pub is launching a big fundraiser to bring a full turkey dinner to families in need this holiday season! We're aiming to sponsor 120 Turkey Dinners in a Bag for our Buddy Bag program families and the local food pantry.

Here's how you can help:

Sponsor a Bag for $10.

The cost of food donation for each bag is approximately $7.

$3 from every sponsorship goes directly to School Pub to help us alleviate our inherited debt.

That's right—you get to provide a complete meal (like the one pictured in the flyer!) and support our students at the same time!

We need 120 sponsors to hit our goal. Sponsor one bag, or sponsor as many as you'd like!

How to Sponsor:
We accept Cash and Checks.

Contact Carolyn Harman at charman@elsberry.k12.mo.us or call 573-898-5554 to arrange your sponsorship!
