Letter from the Principal
Dear EMS Families & Community,
I hope that your family and loved ones enjoyed a fun and healthy week away and returned to school rejuvenated last week. It was a well-deserved break for students and staff alike. Only two and a half weeks remain until the next break, but they are busy ones! Please check out the announcements below for information about the December PTO meeting and our annual Title I Information Session this coming week, and our winter concert series that starts next week.
There is also important information in this letter regarding signing up to receive or provide support over the Winter Break. Schools are in a unique position to provide assistance to families as colder weather and higher energy and food costs set in, but we rely on our community to provide donations of winter clothing, gift cards and monetary gifts. Thank you in advance for your support of this mission.
As we count down to the winter break, our music programs will be busy rehearsing for their upcoming concerts, and most classrooms will be working to wrap up units, projects and assessments. It can be a stressful time, so please check in with your student and their grades in Schoology to check that they end 2022 strong. Conferences are behind us, but teachers are always available should you have questions about your child’s assignments, grades, or how you can best support their learning at home.
In partnership,
Sabrina Westdijk
EMS Principal
