Thank you to the amazing teachers who have dedicated so much time and energy to make our 8th grade recognition and cookout such an enjoyable and memorable experience for our students. Also, a note for families that these women are still working to try and get the video from today’s recognition in a format that we can share for you to view and we hope to post that as well as pictures of the students in the next few days!
8th grade parents: While we have heard and understand your desire to participate in a celebration of your children completing their middle school experience, we have opted to hold our recognition during the school day. Due to parking concerns, student safety concerns, and space concerns as well as other logistics concerns, the decision has been made to not allow parents to attend this event. We appreciate your desire to support your students and hope that you find alternate ways to celebrate this milestone with your children.
Our sixth graders have arrived at the Pittsburgh Zoo and are preparing for a great day exploring the sights!

Parents: Please have a conversation with your student and remind them that they, and you, signed a contract saying that they would take care of the county issued chromebooks. Students have recently been removing the guard around the keyboard keys and causing keys to become loose and get lost. Intentional damage to a chromebook can become the financial responsibility of the student and parent. Please have this conversation with your student and remind them that they are to care for these devices. Thank you!
East Fairmont Middle School students will be taking the West Virginia General Summative Assessment next week, Monday through Thursday. Students need to be sure to be in school by 7:20 each day with charged chromebooks. Students are also encouraged to ensure that they have plenty of sleep next week and eat a good, healthy breakfast.

Please discuss these with your students and have them ask their a/a teacher or an administrator questions before submitting.
