    PAWSitive Vibes
    First of all, thank you for your recent attendance and support of our Parent-Teacher Conferences.
    The EES Staff is thankful for, and inspired by, the support of our parents!
    Starting on March 7th, the testing window for the PAWS (Proficiency Assessment for
    Wyoming Students) will begin. During the next three weeks of March, the entire student body
    at EES will be taking different subtests of the PAWS to show their skills in the areas of reading,
    writing, and math (4th grade will be takng science assessments as well). We feel confident that
    our students will excel in these tests; they have been working hard all year and the PAWS will
    reflect those efforts. We ask that you have your child at school every day with a good breakfast
    and plenty of rest. Most of our testing will take place during the morning and we need students
    here and ready to go!
    If a student misses days during the testing window, he or she is required to make up all missed
    testing, so please let us know in advance of planned absences. Also, please prepare your child
    with the fact that he or she will need to make up any testing missed.
    We are very appreciative of your efforts and support of our school. Thank you for all you do!

    About The Show

    The Aluminum Show, a unique and energetic


    experience for the entire family, is a stimulating
    tour de force which combines movement, dance,
    visual theater and plenty of humor. After its 2003
    debut in Jerusalem at the Israel Festival, the show
    gained worldwide recognition and for years has
    mesmerized hundreds of thousands of people
    across the globe.

    In the show, talented dancers and actors breathe life into aluminum-tone industrial materials
    to tell the story of a young machine determined to reunite with its parents. During its travels
    through a futuristic world ruled by bizarre technology, it finds adventure, excitement and even a
    human friend, who does whatever it takes to get it back home in one piece.

    The Aluminum Show uses recovered materials from industrial factories that are re-used to build the set, dress the cast
    and interact with the audience. As Industrial materials are given new and surprising contexts, then combined with visual
    effects, lighting manipulations and enchanting music, all senses are on high alert. With sights and sounds that overcome
    any language barrier, this is visual entertainment at its best
