Middle School 21–22 School Year Procedures
Hey there, Middle School,
How are you?! Things are pretty busy over here, but one thing’s for sure — we’re so looking forward to the start of this school year. We’ve got some exciting, kid-centered things in the works intended to ignite learning and inspire joy. I’ll tell you more about it soon, but today, here are just a few pieces of information to note:
Students can arrive as early as 8:20 a.m. at Middle. The school day runs from 8:50 a.m.–3:50 p.m.
Columbo Street is reserved for buses. Pick up and drop off take place at the rear entrance on Black Street.
NEW! Look out for emails on Aug.9 and 11 about our parent and student portal. Once your account is activated, you’ll be able to see your child’s homebase assignment.
Masks are required for everyone when indoors but are optional outside.
NEW! Uniforms are not required for Middle School students. A detailed dress code was outlined in the Family Handbook, but the gist is, students should dress for the weather and avoid wearing clothing with vulgar or hateful language/images.
Check out this update to ensure you’ve taken the necessary steps to secure transportation. ECS will provide transportation for Middle School students who reside in the PPS district and live a mile and a half or more from the school. Please verify your address in Alma.
We hope to see you at Meet & Greet on August 16. This district-wide event runs from 5:30–7:30 p.m. and is an informal opportunity to connect with teachers, learn information specific to grade levels, meet some of our community partners, and more!
Until next time,
Jaleah
