Estacada Junior High School

Estacada Junior High School is committed to doing whatever it takes to create the conditions where all members of our school community feel secure, take personal responsibility for their choices, develop good citizenship, and strive to achieve their highest potential. We are proud that Estacada School District does not discriminate against an individual's race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, marital status, age or disability.

Happy New Year and Welcome Back!

It's hard to believe that 2012 is here! We hope you had a relaxing and restful Winter Break and are now ready to tackle all the great things we need to learn and things we need to do during the rest of the school year!

World Book Online AGAIN!

Exclusively from EJHS to all our students and their families, EJHS has once again contracted with World Book Encyclopedia to bring to our students a premier research and learning tool - World Book Online! Not only can students access World Book Online from school, but also from HOME! We are essentially providing each and every one of our students a complete set of 5 different World Book encyclopedias along with all the dictionaries, atlases, biographies, and E-Books that do not normally come with the hard copy version of these amazing resources. Available to students starting now are World Book Advanced, World Book Discover, World Book Student, World Book Kids, and Estudiantil Halazgoes - the full Spanish language version of World Book! We are very excited to make this amazing resource available to our students and families. There will be a flyer in with Report Cards that provides an overview of the resources as well as the website, username, and password to access it all! Students have also been provided with the home access information so they can start using it right away! Like CBS, we at EJHS CARE! And like Kaiser-Permanente, we also want you to THRIVE!

Bully-Proofing EJHS!

The issue of bullying is one that affects all schools in our state and nation. While EJHS is not immune to the negative effects of bullying, we are taking concrete steps toward making EJHS bully proof! To read up on what the staff at EJHS is doing about this issue and what you can do to help, click HERE. Also, please take a look at our Anti Bullying Pledge. Additional resources can be found in our Guidance and Counseling page

Donate to Educate

For some time now we have registered with the Donate 2 Educate organization. Donate 2 Educate provides dissemination of specific needs of a classroom out to the greater public. They have also partnered with our own Estacada Community Foundation in order help generate even more support. This is accomplished primarily through their website; www.donate2educate.com We encourage you to visit the site and, at the very least, explore the needs of your school. It's amazing how little it really takes, sometimes, to make a big difference.

^{_{Super Easy JH Fundraiser!

^{_{^{_{^{_{^{_{Ms. Wood, one of our outstanding math instructors, has found a super easy way for all of us to help support EJHS! Keep reading to find out how you can help!}}The fundraiser is called "Goodsearch.com". It is a web search engine. Every search that is made in the name of the Jr. High results in approximately a one cent donation. In addition, if internet purchases are made through goodsearch, up to 5% of what is spent is donated back to the school! When you use goodsearch to make purchases, you DO NOT end up getting spammed with information from the stores. This is what you do: go to www.goodsearch.com and enter Estacada in the spot where it asks which charity you are supporting. Click on verify and the Jr. High should appear in the box. Then just search. So far, we have made $6.09 with very little effort and only a few people using it! There is a lot of information at the website if you have any questions. It is easy to make goodsearch your default search engine and it will automatically come up when you sign on the internet. Please give it a try and tell your friends!}}}}
