Parents and students: If your child is quarantined and checking google classroom for assignments, please check the classwork tab in google classroom. It seems many students just check the stream and what comes up when you first get in. That only shows the items that are marked as "assignments" in google classroom. It doesn't show everything when they first sign in. They need to click the classwork tab at the top, as well as look at the stream.

7th and 8th grade art students at East Fairmont Middle created "lockers" as a get to know me activity in their art class. Parts of the locker were dedicated to things such as the student's name, their favorite class, and interests. The inside of the locker was dedicated to a place they would like to be.

East Fairmont Middle School is getting the opportunity to allow all students STEAM experiences through the simulated workplace experiences provided by Mrs. Margie Suder. Our sixth graders are currently spending four half days working with Ms. Suder to build a replica of the brain that allows them to collect data that simulates what would happen to the human brain when an individual would receive some kind of blow to the head. Groups are then working to develop "helmets" for their brain that should help lessen the effects. Students are then conducting experiments to see how successful their creation was. Each grade level will participate in a different simulated program during the first quarter of the school year this year.
