From the school

Eisenberg Elementary continually encouraged an increased level of parent communication and involvement. Parent/teacher conferences, family nights, choral concerts, Shakespeare/art festival and PTA activities were some of the events that students and family members participated in throughout the school year. Newsletters were sent to parents monthly and contained information about school news, student achievement, school and PTA activities as well as notifying parents about all academic areas, activities and programs. Teachers communicated with parents about student achievement accomplishments and overall performance in the classroom through varied progress reports and other forms of communication. Eisenberg built community partnerships with Washington Mutual, Audio Enhancement Corporation, Albertsons and Target. These businesses provided our students with program support that enhanced their educational experience. Volunteers from Clark County Reads and Kiwanis Club tutored students to promote literacy and math development. Finally, our school Web site furthered school/community communication and gave valuable information about our staff, namesake, goals and beliefs.
