EJMS Jaguar Weekly Sept. 5 - 9
Keeping our School Community in the Know
From Principal Pickerill's π
iReady Results
Thank you for all your help ensuring that students were prepared for the iReady Math and Reading diagnostics the past two weeks. Friday, September 9th students will be sent home with reports that break down their individual scores, focus areas, and celebrations. We are excited to share this information with you so that we can work together to help our students show growth this school year. Here is a document that helps guide you through the information students will bring home next week.
When Scheduling an Appointment
Please let the scheduler know if the patient plans on getting any vaccines during their appointment and what insurance they have, if known. The vaccines on hand are provided by the Vaccines For Children Program and are billed differently for Medicaid/self pay vs. patients with private insurance.Tara will need time to get private insurance vaccine stock from her
office, if needed.

Title 1 Presentation
Students and Families can put in their own tech tickets (linked in graphic above)
Students (and families), you can put in helpdesk tickets now for Chromebook issues. Here's how:
1) You will enter the information in our helpdesk ticket system (just for students and their families)
2) Once your information has been entered, you need to take your Chromebook to the grade level lead for Chromebook care. (6th grade - Michael Dobie, 7th grade Leighann Switzer, 8th grade Sabrina Miracle)
3) Your grade level lead will give you a loaner Chromebook and take care of getting your Chromebook to our district IT support. You will need to turn in this loaner Chromebook at the end of each day and get it back each morning.
4) You will receive your Chromebook back once it has been repaired.
** Reminders: if the issue was an accident due to neglect or was intentional damage, you will be responsible for paying the Chromebook charge. If you have paid the school fee of $50, this should cover a first incident.
