Memorial Day Holiday
We wish our EMS families a meaningful Memorial Day filled with reflection, gratitude, and remembrance.
End of Year Testing
Students will participate in testing at the end of the school year on the following dates:
- Wed 5/29 - Science (8th grade only)
- Fri 5/31 - Reading
- Tues 6/4 - Math
Testing Expectations
In order to prepare for End of Year Testing, check out these tips and expectations:
Before the Test
Study, get a good night's sleep and hydrate. On test day, arrive early to school and eat a balanced breakfast. Our cafeteria will provide a delicious, free breakfast for students. Bring a water bottle and a book to read after the test is over.
Electronics and Backpacks
All electronics, including cell phones, smart watches and air pods, will be placed in backpacks until the end of the testing session. Backpacks are to be lined up neatly in the hallway until all testing is complete. Student belongings will be monitored by an adult.
Sign Outs
Students may not be signed out on testing days until the testing session is complete. Approximate completion times are 11:30 for Science and Reading, and 12:30 for Math.
Do Your Best!
Our students are much more than a test score. Warriors are curious, enthusiastic, courageous, creative, compassionate, resilient, humorous, empathetic, resourceful, unique, kind and so much more that can not be measured by a test. Encourage your student to try their best, because that's the Warrior Way.
Football Workout Schedule
Players will need their own water/gatorade, to make sure they stay hydrated. Players
need to have a pair of cleats, as well as a pair of tennis shoes to go inside for any
reason. We will start stretching @6pm. All Players must have a physical form turned
into Erwin Middle School to start workouts. Family ID must be filled out to be able to
participate in any official practice. The form can be found on the school website.
Monday, August 12th will be the first official day of practice. If your student misses any
of those days they will be a day behind in the equipment they are wearing. Five days of
practice with different equipment is required by the state before a student puts on full
pads. (please do your best to be at these practices)
