​IMPORTANT INFORMATION PERTAINING TO YEARBOOK PICTURES:
​Anyone who has not had a chance to get a portrait for the 2020-2021 yearbook still has one last chance to get their picture in for the book. Parents or guardians may take their own photo of their student using a smartphone or camera and may submit the picture by using the secure link below. In order to get the best possible picture, consider the following:
-          The photo MUST follow all EFMS Dress Code guidelines.
-          The background should be a blank wall, if possible, or another clear area indoors.
-          There should be adequate lighting directly facing the student, try to not take the photo with an open door or window in the background.
-          Try to take the photo that displays the shoulders up to the top of the head. We will try to crop the photo as best we can, but this will be very helpful.
The picture can be uploaded simply by clicking on the link below, clicking the “choose file” button, selecting the image, and filling out some basic information: student name, grade, and an email address (yours or your student’s). Again, this is only for those who DID NOT get a professional portrait through Lifetouch and is a last-ditch effort to collect as many photos as we can! Photos must be submitted by Friday, March 12th.

Kids Connect Log in update / December 14, 2020
As discussed, authentication for Kids Connect is now ready to deploy. Over the Christmas break we will be turning on authentication which will require the use of the Student/Staff K12 email account and password to gain access. There will be a captive portal page that will appear once the WVKidsConnect SSID is selected and a browser is opened. That page will have guidance as well as helpdesk information. WVNET is handling the helpdesk operation and will have access to reset passwords for those people who forget passwords.


***February Important Dates and News:​
Thursday, February 19th- 3 Hour Early Release


ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE PROCEDURES
SCHOOL TOUR
***Arrival and Departure Procedures
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 front doors facing Mason Street. When picking up your child you will not enter the parking lot but will park along Mason Street or Alta Vista Avenue. For the safety of the children walking, please refrain from parking along 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
or they will not be counted as an excusable absence.
