Hello EJMS Family and Friends - It is finally starting to feel more like fall and with that nip in the air comes boys basketball. Beginning this week with Jaguar Madness on Thursday. Then there's the first school dance this Friday for our Neon Rodeo. We're also joining with the other schools in our district led by a class of third graders from Rosenwald-Dunbar to raise money for helping orphan children in Malawi, Africa with the Jessamine Cares Change Challenge this week. Find out more about each of these events and other happenings at EJMS in this week's edition of the EJMS Jaguar Weekly.
