Announcement and Reminders

General Announcements


  • REMINDER: Please do not drop off or pickup students on Graydon Avenue. Not only is this unsafe for our students, it slows down the traffic flow. Our new parking lot allows the drop off of students in a timely manner and should be utilized. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
  • We have had several students arrive at school as early as 6:30am. Please remember that we cannot provide supervision for those students. Our doors open at 7:25am, which is when supervision is available.
  • Students that stay after for the fitness center should not leave the building after school and need to be picked up promptly at 4:30 pm.

D & D Club

Just a friendly reminder that D&D Club meets on Mondays after school from 3:15-4:15. Please make sure students are picked up promptly at 4:15, as we aren’t able to provide supervision after that time. If a student isn’t picked up by 4:15, they will need to wait outside, as staff supervision will no longer be available. Thank you for helping us keep everyone safe and on schedule!

Last Day of School Info

Dear Parents and Guardians,

As we approach the end of the academic year, we are incredibly excited to celebrate
the hard work, growth, and achievements of our students. This year has been full of
learning and milestones, and we want to finish strong! It is vital that students are
present for this final day, as it is the last time the 2025-2026 student body will be
together in the building as one group.

A Day Full of Celebration: We have planned a high-energy, activity-packed day
to honor our students' dedication.

The Day's Schedule:
  • Final Class Connections: Students will rotate through all of their classes one last time to see their teachers and wrap up the year in the morning. Each department has a fun activity for students to participate in!
  • Lunch & Tug-of-War: After lunch, we will head outside for our annual Tug-of-War competition!
  • Afternoon Rotations: Students will travel with their grade levels through four exciting celebration stations: Grade Level Awards Ceremony, Ice Cream Social, Bounce Houses & Rockwall, and Yearbook Signing Party!
  • At the end of the day we will come together as a student body to do a send off!

Students will receive their 2025-2026 yearbooks on this final day, allowing them plenty of time to collect signatures and messages from friends during our afternoon signing party.

REQUIRED: Permission Waiver
To participate in the Bounce Houses and Rockwall, all students must have a signed waiver on file. Please complete the digital waiver at the link below by May 31st:

We are so proud of our students and look forward to spending this final, memorable
day together as a school community. Thank you for your continued support in
making this a wonderful year!

Warmly,
The Staff at ETMS

Scheduling Meetings with Staff

We kindly ask that parents and guardians schedule a meeting in advance when wishing to speak with a staff member. Our staff have full schedules throughout the day, and unannounced visits can be difficult to accommodate.

We absolutely understand that emergencies can arise, and in those cases, we will do our best to assist right away. However, for all other matters, please reach out by phone or email to set up a meeting time. This helps ensure that staff can give you their full attention and that your concerns are addressed effectively.

Thank you for your understanding and for helping us maintain a productive and respectful environment for both staff and students.
