Yearbooks are now on sale for the lowest price of the year! Students will be receiving yearbook order forms in their homerooms. Orders can be submitted to the office or online at jostens.com/inthebook. Orders are due by Friday, 9/18.

We are excited to welcome our Hornets tomorrow morning. Here’s some helpful advice before head our way!

According to WV State Law, any student that has emergency medicine ordered must have the medication administration form AND the medication available at school or the student may not attend school. Nurse Shana will be available at East Fairmont Middle on Tuesday for those to be dropped off between 8 and 1. Please make sure these are delivered so we do not have to send your child home on Wednesday.

Menu changes for Wednesday and Thursday:
Wednesday, April 29th: Choice 1 is Cheese Con Queso and Choice 2 is Hot Dogs.
Thursday, April 30th: Choice 1 is Potato Bar and Choice 2 is Calzone.

The 2026 Junior First Responder Academy will be held this summer for current students in grades 6–11. This hands-on program introduces students to emergency services, public safety, teamwork, and leadership while exploring careers in first response.
Please see the attached flyer for more information.

8th Grade Recognition!

East Fairmont Middle will be practicing a code white drill at approximately 11:45 today. A code white would typically be used for response to a severe weather incident. We ask that families give us from about 11:45 to 12:00 without calling or stopping by the school so that we can effectively carryout this drill. Thank you for your understanding.

Come out and support the 2nd seeded Hornet basketball team as they take on Lincoln Middle at approximately 7:30 in the quarter final round of the MidMountain 10 Boys' Basketball Championship. Being tournament play though, means that admission is $5 per person. Marion County Senior Citizen passes and typical student admission is not recognized for tournament play and therefore everyone will need to pay the $5 fee tonight. Thanks and hope to see you there.

Next week's menu options have changed. Please see below for updated menu options.
Monday: Taco Salad or Chicken Fajita
Tuesday: Pizza or Meatloaf
Wednesday: Steak & Cheese Hoagie or Chicken Nuggets
Thursday: Pizza or Hot Dog
Friday: Potato Bar o r Calzone

8th grade parents: Students will be bringing home an updated scheduling paper that is pink. This paper needs completed, signed, and returned with the students on Monday to library. Mrs. Ross has uploaded the scheduling powerpoint to her google classroom and students can access it there as you discuss options this weekend.

Reminder:
Tomorrow is the county science fair!
The fair will be held in the West Fairmont Middle Cafeteria.
Important details:
* Students may begin setting up their projects at 4:30 p.m.
* Judging will begin at 5:30 p.m.
* Parents will wait in the gymnasium while judging is taking place
* Awards will be announced the same evening
Please make sure if your child placed first here at the school fair that they are ready to attend tomorrow evening and represent East Fairmont Middle!

I few reminders since we have been off for a few weeks about dropping off your child in the morning:
You should NOT stop in the crosswalk. We have staff members who escort students across the crosswalk in the mornings and pedestrians in the crosswalk have the right of way.
Doors do not open before 6:45. Please do not drop your child off before that time as we do not have staff on duty before then so they will be hanging out in the elements and without supervision until the doors are open if you drop them off early.
Please do not pass other cars while you are in line. Remain patient, traffic will move and we do not want any accidents occurring.
Thank you for helping ensure the safety of all involved!

Today is picture day! Please use the following code to access your student's fall pictures and place your order.
