Veterans Day: East Shore Middle School proudly presents Take a Veteran to School Day. In honor of Veterans Day ESMS students and staff would like to invite our family and friends who are veterans to visit with the ESMS learning community on Friday, November 11 from 8:30-10:15 am. Our veteran guests will attend a ceremony and then share their experiences of patriotic and military service with a small group of students. If you have a veteran family member who would like to attend please click here to access our Veterans Day flyer which can be completed and submitted to your student’s Social Studies teacher by Tuesday, November 1.
One of the best ways to stay connected and see what is happening in the classroom is through Twitter, Insta or FB. We try our best to capture as much of our kiddos as we can throughout the day.

Thanks so much for your continued support. We want, need, and value your involvement, partnership, and support in your child’s education! We look forward to a successful 2021-2022 school year and can’t wait to work with you and your children.
