East Middle School
Parent Newsletter: May 10th
A Note From the Principal
Dear East Middle School Students, Parents, and Guardians:
Only a few more weeks of school, but we are not counting down! Our summer just won't be the same without the students around!
We've got some good nuts and bolts details within the newsletter, so make sure to review it! Before you scroll down, please see these important reminders:
- Is your student interested in summer boys basketball camps? If so, please click on the link HERE to enroll in the camp opportunities.
- Wow! Thank you to the families who helped with the ice cream party on Monday! It was a hit and it was because of their organized efforts that all 800 students were served ice cream in less than 30 minutes!
- If, at this point, your student is eligible for the Power Play field trip, permission slips will be coming home in the next few days and need to be returned, to science teachers, by Monday, May 21st. Final eligibility will be determined on Tuesday, May 22nd.
Sincerely,
Katie Campbell
