Board Meeting

At the beginning of every school board meeting, a school is highlight.  This month is EMS's turn.  A few students from the Aviator Team will be discussing how the Portrait of a Graduate ties into what they having been learning in 6th grade.  We also have a few of our staff members being honored with awards.  The board meetings can be viewed online.


Academic Engagement

Please continue to keep students focused on their academics.  We still have a lot of time before winter break.  Please keep students in your classrooms and engaged on your content standards.  Make sure you are consistently assessing what your kids know and what they are struggling with.


Laker Time

Core Teachers (ELA, Math, Science, Social Studies) must pull students that are struggling during Laker Time.  They should be communicating with Specials Teachers to ensure students are attending.   If students are refusing to attend, please make me aware ASAP. 


Good Professional Reading (or Watching)

Often, Dave Eberly likes to brag to me about all of the touchdown passes he throws during recess at Thomas Jefferson.  Recently he as partnered with the United Way to help these Elementary Students.
I was able to find some video of his recess adventures.  Please be sure to congratulate Dave for is mentoring of these future EMS students.
