A little cheesecake and a convenient way to take care of ourselves! 💙
Thank you to the Howard Center for Women’s Health for visiting Eighth Street Middle School and meeting with teachers during their planning periods to help schedule annual health screenings.
They also treated our staff to cheesecake with toppings and a chance to win a CASE-MATE pocketbook! We appreciate their thoughtful visit and the time they took to make scheduling these important appointments a little easier for our teachers.

Mr. Winger, we hope you know how much you mean to the people at Eighth Street Middle School. There is a lot that comes with your job that never makes it into a Facebook post, but we see it, and we appreciate it.
Thank you for being someone we can count on, for listening, and for caring so much about this school and the people in it. As National Principals Month comes to a close, we’re glad to have the chance to say what we may not say often enough: we’re grateful you’re our principal.
