ANNOUNCEMENTS & CALENDAR
***Important News About Student Chromebooks***
More specific information regarding the distribution of the student Chromebooks will be coming as we receive it. Parents will need to come with their child to receive the Chromebook. To help expedite the process, attached is a copy of the contract. Please review it now by clicking on the link (Chromebook Contract) below.
Insurance for the Chromebook will be available and information will be given at the time of distribution.
We will be providing the pick-up schedule within the next few weeks. Expectations are that we will be distributed them sometime during October. This is delayed due to issues with the manufacturer that are out of our control. Please contact the school if your student needs a loaner device until the Chromebooks arrive.

ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE PROCEDURES
Arrival and Departure Procedures
*******************************************New Drop Procedure****************************************************************
Students arrival and departure will be determined by their bus schedule, however students who are privately transported should not arrive prior to 6:45am, but before 7:15am. When dropping off, all vehicles are to drive up Alta Vista Avenue and turn right onto Mason Street. Students can exit the vehicle anywhere along Mason Street and immediately walk down the side walk to the new stairs located in front of the school. Teachers will be available to monitor and assist students. We prohibit dropping off in any other area as it compromises safety and does not promote good relationships with our neighbors. If you do not have time to wait in the drop off line, allow your student to ride a bus to school. Students that are picked up or walk home will be released from the side doors facing Alta Vista Avenue. When picking up your child you will not enter the parking lot but will park along Alta Vista Avenue. For the safety of the children walking, please refrain from parking along Mason Street and the adjacent streets during these times. Upon arrival, students should report to the gym or the cafeteria (breakfast). Students are not to report to their lockers until they are dismissed to first period. Students arriving after 7:20 a.m. need to receive a tardy slip from the office before reporting to class. Students riding first bell buses in the evenings will be dismissed at 12:59pm. Students must ride the bus they are assigned. Walkers and students being picked up will be dismissed at 1:17pm. Students should not be signed out in the office early unless there is an emergency or medical appointment.

POSITIVE BEHAVIOR INTERVENTION SUPPORTS (PBIS)
What is PBIS at EFMS?
School-wide Positive Behavior Support as defined by the US Department of Special Programs:
- Refers to a systems change process for an entire school or district
- The underlying goal of these is to teach behavioral expectations in the same manner as any core curriculum subject.
- It is present throughout our county at every school.
At EFMS our goal is to improve student behavior, attendance, academic performance and
increase awareness of our SWPBIS pillars:
P – Positive
R – Respectful
I – Involved
D – Determined
E – Excellence
#EastSideHornetPRIDE
To address these we use:
* School-wide Honey Money (Reward) School Store
* Hornet Heroes
* End of the 9 Weeks Rewards
* Student recognition for displaying expected behaviors and the WVPBIS pillars
* Positive recognition and phone calls home
2020-2021 Expectations for Quarterly Rewards:
~ No More than 3 structured lunch days
~ No ISS/OSS in a 9 weeks
~ No More than 3 tardies to school
~ No More than 3 “0’s” in all combined classes
~ No More than 3 Unexcused absences.
**Absence excuses must be sent in within 3 days of a students absence
