Principal's Message
Greetings Elm Families,
We hope everyone had a wonderful week! It's been a fun and busy one here at Elm! We've had students diving into their Career Study courses taking virtual field trips and having presenters talk to them about their various courses! We had our first basketball games, Go Lady Cougars, and conferences just around the corner!
As a reminder next week February 16th & February 17th are Elm Middle School's Parent Teacher Conferences! We can't wait to see all of our families and connect on how we can work together to support out students. Information was sent out for you to sign up, please don't hesitate to reach out if you need help. Directions for sign-up can also be found here.
Additionally it's time for our 5Essentials Survey. Take a few minutes and complete this survey, your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Please take a few minutes and read through this week’s Courier! As always, should you need anything, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly. Stay safe! #TeamElmStrong

8th Grade Dance
The theme has been selected by the students and it is Glow in the Dark! We're very excited the PAT has been working hard to make this an evening to remember for our students. They've brought in a professional party planner, catering by DaLuciano's and a DJ, to make this a one-of-a-kind night for our students! Thank you to everyone for your hard work! We can't wait to celebrate our graduating Cougars! Dance date is May 19, 2022!
