Trivia Question

You might have seen the Ellison trivia question on the principal's Twitter page: Do you know what the C.E. in C.E. Ellison High School stands for?

We did have one correct response turned in on the Twitter page, and the answer is:

Casper Eugene Ellison

Dr. Ellison was the Superintendent of the Killeen Independent School District from 1953 - 1973.

Open House

Open House was a big success! Thanks to all the parents & students who came out tonight, & thanks to our teachers for putting in an extra long day!

Thank you for the information, and please contact our office if there are any problems in the future.

Thanks,

Eagles are 2 - 0!

The Eagle Faithful were treated to a great half of football Friday evening, going into halftime with a 21 - 7 lead over the Del Valle Cardinals. The halftime show was top-notch, featuring outstanding performances by the Screaming Eagle Band & the Ellison Emeralds.

Halftime also brought lightning, and the game was called for safety concerns.

Congrats, Eagles, on a great win!
