I have put information about the 6th and 7th grade SCA dance on the “SCA News & Information” page!

I hope everyone had a wonderful, relaxing summer!

I’m very excited about a new school year! I am working on finalizing my guidance schedule for this year, and will post it as soon as possible. I will also be updating each grade level page with the topics for my guidance lessons each month.

As always, please let me know if there is anything I can do for you or your child, or if you have any questions about anything on my blog! If you are interested in receiving e-mail updates from the blog, please enter your e-mail address!

I have added new information to the 7th grade transition page, with information about the course registration forms.

For the 6th and 7th grade students that signed up to take the Algebra I placement exam, the counselor from Giles High School will be here Tuesday, April 5 at 1:00 to administer the exam. ONLY students who returned a permission form will be permitted to take the test. Scores will be mailed home in a letter the following week. Please let me know if you have any questions!

I’ve added a new page to my blog about the Eastern SCA! It is located after the “SOLs” page. Check it out!

For 5th grade parents/students: I have added information about the Writing SOL  under the “SOLs” page

For 7th grade parents/students: Please refer to the “7th Grade Transition” page for important information about course registration for 8th grade!

Welcome back to another school year! I hope everyone had a safe and relaxing summer! I am working on updating my blog for this school year with information about Guidance classes and Eagles with Character.

I have posted the Eagles with Character schedule under the Eagles with Character page. It includes the dates for which we will recognize each character pillar, as well as the dates we will wear the specific color corresponding to that pillar. Our first “color” day is next Wednesday, September 8. We will be wearing green to recognize the character pillar of responsibility. The class with the most people wearing green will get a reward during lunch on Thursday!

Keep checking back for updates on my blog throughout the year. And as always, please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns!

It’s hard to believe the year is over and it is already summer! I really enjoyed my first year at EEMS, and want to thank all the teachers, students and parents for helping to make this such a wonderful year!

As you may have noticed, I made some changes to the Guidance Blog. I will continue to update the blog throughout the summer with information for the 2010-11 school year. I hope everyone has a safe and relaxing summer!

We will be wearing PURPLE next Tuesday, May 4 in order to recognize our Character Pillar of the 6th Six Weeks: Citizenship.

Students and staff are asked to wear red on Tuesday, March 23 to recognize the Character Pillar of Caring! Red reminds us that when we are caring, we use our heart, and treat others with kindness. The homeroom with the most amount of people wearing red will receive a reward during lunch on Wednesday!
