Fall Picture Day will be Thursday, August 31st.
Reminder that today is the first day of practice for Cross Country. Students must have an up to date VHSL physical on file to participate. If you have not submitted a physical yet, but wish to participate in Cross Country please let Coach Rogers know by sending him an email: jrogers02@rockingham.k12.va.us.
All physical forms must be received by tomorrow for students to join Cross Country. This is a firm deadline for students to begin participating in Cross Country.
Additionally, there is a mandatory parent meeting for all students participating in Cross Country or Volleyball today, Wednesday, August 23rd at 5:00pm in the auditorium. Due to the parent meeting, cross country and volleyball practice will end at 5pm today (not 4:30 as regularly scheduled). Even if your child did not stay for practice today but they plan to participate in cross country, a parent must attend the mandatory parent meeting.
Parents, please remind your students that all meals, both breakfast and lunch, are FREE every day! We hope they all take advantage of this great opportunity; our food at EMS is the absolute best!!!
We are excited to welcome all of our students to school tomorrow, Wednesday, August 23. It will be an Odd Day!!!
A message for parents of students participating in Cross Country or Volleyball at EMS: There will be a mandatory parent meeting for students participating in these sports this Wednesday, August 23rd at 5:00pm.
With the beginning of school less than a week away, please reread this important information that was posted in our Back to School Elk Trax.
- Immunizations required for all 7th graders: TDAP and Meningococcal.
-The school nurse MUST have one of the following options for ALL 7th graders in regards to the immunization requirement before they can register and receive their schedule:
-The vaccination record showing your child received the vaccinations required by the state of Virginia
-Either a medical exemption from your doctor or a religious exemption that is notarized.
You may bring medication and forms for medical conditions to the nurse. An adult must deliver medications in their original packaging with a completed form. Students may not bring in any medication.
Thank you to everyone who came to Back to School night on 8/16.
