Request For Assistance - This morning at approximately 7:45 a.m., one of our staff members observed a student walking towards EEMS from the Mill Mall/YMCA parking lot. While walking near the baseball field, the student was told by another parent that there was no school. The student then ran back towards the Mill Mall Parking lot. We ask for your help in identifying the student so we can ensure that he returned home safely. If you know the identity of this student, please contact the school office 667-6241 or the Ellsworth Police Department at 667-2133
