Thank you to all of the ESMS students and their parents for attending the Eighth Street Middle School Meet the Teacher Night.
It was so nice to see the faces of our ESMS students that we have missed over the summer, and we were so excited to see our new sixth graders who will now call ESMS their home for the next three years. The excitement of the students and the support that we felt from the parents was amazing.
