WINNING THEME FOR 2022-2023 SCHOOL YEAR!
Last week our 3rd -6th graders voted on several themes to live by for this school year.
I am happy to announce the students overwhelmingly voted for the following theme:
"Be kind to everyone, not because of who they are, but because of who you are."
I would like to encourage our whole Emerson community to join us in living by this theme for the 2022-2023 school year!
Thank You!
Mr. Argiri

Then All Emerson students participated in our first school wide assembly "UNCLE SAM"S COMEDY JAM!"

ATTENDANCE WORKS!
This year, we're working hard to advance student success by reducing chronic absenteeism. At the end of each month, our team will be reviewing student attendance and will be setting up meetings with families whose students have missed 10% of our school days. During these meetings, we will be creating success plans in an effort to help improve student attendance.
Students who miss 2 days of school in September often go on to become chronically absent. To maintain satisfactory attendance and to create good attendance habits that can last a lifetime, students should strive to miss no more than 9 days per year (or less than 1 day per month).
