EJMS Jaguar Weekly Oct. 24 - 28
Keeping our School Community in the Know
From Principal Pickerill's ✒
Parents,
We had a busy week at East Middle last week with Picture Day, Rewards Day for 1st nine weeks, and our 80’s Neon Glow Dance. We hope you have a great weekend and are looking forward to another week ahead!
Report Cards
Report Cards will be available on Infinite Campus Parent Portal on Friday, October 28th. Do you need any assistance with setting up and/or navigating Infinite Campus Parent Portal? Check out this Video on EJMS Report Card How To.
Halloween Dress Up
Students will be allowed to dress up this year on Halloween which is Monday, October 31st. We ask that all outfits stay within dress code and students will not be allowed to wear full face masks.
Parent-Teacher Conferences
We will be having Parent-Teacher Conferences on Monday, November 7th. Teams are contacting parents of those students who would benefit from a conference based on grades, behavior, and/or attendance so far this year. We would like to extend an invitation to other parents if you would like to meet with your child’s teachers. Conferences will be held during normal school hours and can be virtual, in person, or by phone. Please contact your child’s teacher if you would like to set up a conference.
What a fun night!
Friends just wanna have fun!
It's called a dance floor and here's what it's for...
"Children" behave, that's what they say when we're together.
Go "Down Under" in 2025? Opportunity for International Trip
Dear families,
Your student is invited to join us on an upcoming educational travel experience to Australia July 2025!
When students travel, they expand their knowledge of the world around them, discover more about themselves, and grow more confident. These skills are critical for creating the global citizens of tomorrow, and I would love to have your student join me on this adventure. As someone that has done one of these tours when I was in middle school, it launched my dedication and slight addiction to travel! I accomplished my goal to travel to all 50 states in the US and now that my domestic goal is accomplished, I have set my sights on global travel! Learning about the culture, history, and landscapes other countries have to offer.
Come hear all the details, including the itinerary, activities, academic opportunities, the cost of the trip and EF’s risk-free enrollment period at our informational meeting on October 26th, 2022 at 6:00pm. The meeting will take place at West Jessamine Middle School. (A little spoiler, we will be visiting the Great Barrier Reef!)
Please click here to register for the meeting ASAP to save your seat: https://bit.ly/3e3pEnw. There are limited spots on this trip, so we would love to have you attend this meeting to learn more about this exciting opportunity!
