8th grade we are ready for you!
8th grade parents - we are going to continue with the plan to have our 8th grade recognition tomorrow (Friday, May 16th). We will be adjusting the time to 5:30-7:30 due to the threat of potential severe weather later in the evening. We have a rain plan that we will share if necessary tomorrow afternoon. Looking forward to seeing all of our 8th grade families to celebrate the students!

Due to low attendance at our first night of dance team clinics this evening, a rare exception has been made for those who would like to join us starting on day 2 for Dance team clinics tomorrow after school from 4-6 in the gym. No former training is necessary; only an interest in performing and school pride. Our routines consist of various genres including pom, jazz, and hip hop. Please bring an updated sports physical, and signed forms from the try out packet available in the front office.
3 days and counting!! #proudtoroar
4 days until 8th Grade Recognition! We can't wait to celebrate our 8th graders! #proudtoroar
Hello EJMS Family and Friends -
We are in the next to last week of school for the year, can you believe it?! It's our last week of KSA testing and time for the spring Salt Water Conference for our sports teams. We've also got incentive field trips coming up and we end the week with a fun recognition for all of our 8th grade students who are moving on to high school. Find out about all of that and more in this week's edition.

Last year we began an annual tradition of awarding a PTO member with the Crystal Key award (named in part because of Crystal Hamblin) since a key symbolizes the role of a parent as a guide, unlocking opportunities and pathways for their children's growth and learning. Additionally, a key represents access and empowerment, reflecting the parent's pivotal role in shaping their child's education and future.
This year’s Crystal Key award goes to Joan Rudolph.
Joan has a remarkable gift for connection. She bridges the gap between school and family, creating a supportive network where everyone feels seen and valued. She is a true champion for our school's growth and well-being. Her willingness to roll up her sleeves and write grants demonstrates an unwavering commitment to providing our students with the resources they need to thrive.
And then there's Joan's almost magical ability to uncover hidden treasures – those donations that have become the lifeblood of so many of our initiatives. From Basket Bingo, which raised thousands of dollars thanks to her tireless efforts. The Community Partnerships table at Spring Showcase, the heartfelt appreciation shown to our secretaries with gifts lovingly provided through her connections, paraprofessional appreciation lunch, the baskets for our Students of the Month, the sheer abundance of donations that have enriched countless school events.
These aren't just random acts of kindness; they are the tangible results of Joan's deep care and her understanding of how even small contributions can make a big difference. She sees opportunities where others might not, and she has an uncanny knack for inspiring generosity in those around her.
Joan, your dedication is not just about what you do, but about the spirit in which you do it. You approach every task with enthusiasm, with a genuine desire to make things better, and with a warmth that draws people in. You are a connector, a fundraiser, a support, and most importantly, a true friend to our school and community.
Today, as we present you with the Crystal Key award, we want to express our deepest gratitude for all that you do. You have unlocked so much for us – opportunities, resources, and a stronger sense of community. Your heart truly holds the key to making our school a better place for everyone.
Thank you, Joan. We are incredibly fortunate to have you.
In the middle of Teacher Appreciation Week, the staff at EJMS wanted to pause and recognize our amazing PTO members for another great year together. We hosted a PTO Appreciation Dinner as a small gesture to show our thanks for the many ways they have poured into the staff and students at East Middle!

Mrs. Harrell’s agriscience students are so excited to announce that the EJMS Annual Greenhouse Sale will be opening soon! On the attached flyer you will see a variety of plants, vegetables, and flowers available. You will also find the date, time and location of the sale. We will have a few limited quantity plants that are not listed on the flyer as well! Each plant comes in a hand painted pot by our students, and they have worked so hard this year caring for the plants from start to finish. Each purchase helps fund the EJMS agriculture & FFA program, and any support is greatly appreciated! See you in the greenhouse!
Happy National School Nurse Day to our very own Nurse Erin! To know her is to love her! She is always smiling, laughing, and is the first to step in to take care of anyone and ensure the safety and health of our campus. Thank you, Nurse Erin, for all you do each and every day here at EJMS! We are beyond thankful for you! When you see her around, give her a huge thank you! #proudtoroar
