EJMS Jaguar Weekly Aug. 29-Sept. 2
Keeping our School Community in the Know
From Principal Pickerill's Pen
iReady Diagnostic
It has been very encouraging to see how hard EJMS students worked on their Math iReady reading Diagnostic. We will begin iReady Reading next Monday in ELA classes, so please join us in encouraging our students to continue the hard work! After labor day we will be sending Family reports home with students that provide detailed information on scores, in the meantime feel free to check out this iReady Family Center resource page for frequently asked questions.
School Supplies
The week of September 5th we will begin creating our data folders in our classes to measure our iReady progress throughout the year. Please ensure that your student has a 1/2-inch binder, this was on our original school supply list for all grade levels.
Reminder about Open House - Thursday, September 1st
We hope you can join us Thursday, September 1st from 5:30 - 7:30 PM for Open House! We will have food available (thank you to our PTO who are providing this free of charge for everyone who attends) and the opportunity to meet your childβs teachers and get important information for families. We also hope to make this a social event with games, activities, and prizes. Feel free to come anytime during the two-hour window. It will be very informal, but a great chance to put a face with your childβs teachers and hang out with other families.
Feel free to reach out to your childβs homeroom teacher with questions.
Does your child need a school or sports physical? Immunizations? Jessamine County school district partners with Healthpoint Family Care to provide a school clinic at 6 different locations within our schools. It is staffed by a nurse practitioner who can take care of all of your acute or preventive care needs. They accept all KY Medicaid and most private insurance with a self-pay price of $23 per visit for uninsured patients. Please contact your school nurse to schedule an appointment. The school clinic consent form can be found by clicking the button below. You are welcome to complete the consent and email it or turn in a paper copy to your school nurse to have your child(ren) enrolled in case they need the clinic anytime throughout the school year.
