East Fairmont Middle School

East Fairmont Middle School will be holding their next LSIC meeting on Tuesday, September 27th at 5:30 pm in the school library.

Cross country sponsored dance this Friday. School appropriate attire required.

Mr. Sayer, one of our school counselors, works with 7th graders in a role playing exercise to practice conflict resolution.

Marion County Schools operate on a color code system for various situations that do or can occur in schools. Staff and students spend time talking about the various color codes and what procedures are to be followed depending on the code that is called. It is important that our students understand these procedures in case of a true emergency. In order to help our students understand procedures and the importance of following the directions of the trusted adults in the building, we run practice drills periodically to allow students to become even more familiar. East Fairmont Middle plans to run a code drill later this week with our students. If you would happen to arrive at school during one of these drills, please be patient with staff while we complete the drill.

Picture day is tomorrow! Don’t forget!

If you are a grandparent who is serving as a guardian for one or more of your grandchildren, please contact the office to obtain a form so that we can get you information on the Marion County Healthy Grandfamilies program!

Today wrapped up our spirit week activities with Neon Day. Both staff and students really enjoyed the activities this week.

Picture Day is quickly approaching. Fall pictures which will also be the ones used for the yearbook will be taken on Tuesday, September 13th.

East Fairmont Middle students participated in the fall fundraising kickoff assembly today.
