Today, Mrs. Rollins’ class listened to “Solimar: The Sword of the Monarchs” by Pam Muñoz Ryan for First Chapter Friday. Not only did students get to explore new literature, but they were also able to participate in one of the many ways EJMS is actively celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month!
It's time to celebrate because it's Mrs. Jones' Birthday!🥳
Drop those well wishes here and show Mrs. Jones some love on her special day!

The only thing better than a good book is sharing a good book!
Jessamine County schools is partnering with Care Council for a book drive through the month of September to show just how true that is!
We are asking for gently-used children's books to redistribute to our primary students, with dropoff locations at Central Office and Jessamine County School libraries. Let's come together, as a community, so we can make sure every home can experience the joys of reading! 📚

Hello EJMS Community - Welcome back to another great week! It was such fun seeing all of students dress out for spirit week for School Safety last week. Now, we're through our first midterm and gearing up for two great weeks before fall break - time is flying at EJMS! In this week's newsletter, please be sure to review the Title 1 presentation and fill out the Google form to sign our Family/School compact if you did not have a chance to do that at our block party a couple of weeks ago. We are required to have all of our families sign this as a Title 1 school. Thanks so much for your help with this! Speaking of being involved, don't forget that we want parents and students on our school committees, you can see which one works best for you from Ms. Border's article in the Jaguar Weekly. Looking forward to a great week!

As East Middle caps off Safe Schools Week, we want to take a moment to recognize our very own Deputy Mansur!
Not a day goes by that Deputy Mansur isn't seen throughout our halls, building relationships with our students and helping them feel both valued and safe while at EJMS.
Thank you for all of your incredibly hard work, keeping us safe and serving as a positive force for our students and staff! We're lucky to have you!💙🐆💚
The East principals know the grass is green on our side!
📜🇺🇸 Happy Constitution Day! 🇺🇸📜
Today our social studies classes celebrated the signing of the U.S. Constitution back on September 17, 1787!
Our students dove into what the Constitution means, explored how our government works, and looked at how the Bill of Rights protects our everyday freedoms. Learning about our history helps us understand how to be active, informed citizens today!

Ms. Weidman’s class got to engage in some community based learning yesterday by taking a trip to the park!
Safe Schools Week felt like the best time to bring their knowledge out into the world and show everyone what it looks like to be safe inside and outside of the classroom.
Thanks to City County park for being a great inclusive space for everyone to safely share! 💚💙
