Exira-Elk Horn-Kimballton Community School District

Conference Volleyball Schedule.

Our 9-12th grade students, 8th grade LEOs, and 8th grade FFA members had the opportunity to attend Meals For The Heartland today!

They helped Meals For The Heartland in their Annual Hunger Fight. Their goal this year is to package 1.75 million meals for families in need!

I am so proud to say that EEHK students lended a helping hand in this endeavor and to know that we are sprinkling kindness like confetti!

Exira EHK's regular October school board meeting has been moved to 5pm on Monday October 12th in the Exira building.

Tell your friends you're "Booked" on Tuesday evening because Elementary Literacy Night is coming soon! We're revealing the One School One Book title --you won't wanna miss this!
