Welcome to East Jessamine Middle School!

Welcome to East Middle!

The mission of East Jessamine Middle School is to develop lifelong learners who strive to be successful citizens in an ever-changing society. To fulfill this mission, we are committed to creating a school culture where students know they belong and are challenged, supported, and inspired to reach their full holistic potential.

At East Jessamine Middle School, our culture is built around four schoolwide anchors: Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Determined, and Be Engaged. These anchors represent the values and behaviors we expect from all students and serve as the foundation of what it means to be a Jaguar. We love to encourage students and recognize those who consistently demonstrate these qualities in their daily actions and interactions. Being a Jaguar is something we are very proud to be!

Our teachers and staff are dedicated to ensuring that every student has access to rigorous, high-quality instruction and the support needed to succeed. Our educators are champion collaborators and utilize data-driven decision making and research-based practices to respond to academic, behavioral, and social-emotional needs. We are committed to fostering an environment where all students feel connected, valued, and empowered to grow.

Please take some time to explore the various sections of our website. We hope the information provided offers a glimpse into the academic, athletic, artistic, and extracurricular opportunities available to our students, as well as the vibrant culture that makes East Jessamine Middle School a special place to learn and grow.

We look forward to growing our partnership with all of you as we collectively help every student develop the knowledge, skills, and character necessary to become successful citizens and proud to rep the blue and green.

Go Jaguars!
