Hello EJMS Friends and Family -
It's hard to believe that this week marks the end of October. Time is flying as we continue into our second nine weeks. Thanks to all for your help with our district-wide charity coin drive for Jessamine Cares last week and to the parents and family members who helped with our first dance of the year on Friday. We've got a lot going on this week; it's a Spirit Week so check out What's Happening at EJMS to find out the theme each day. There are also many community events and opportunities this week for you and your family that we hope you'll take advantage of. Find out all that and more in this week's edition of our weekly update.

EJMS is joining with other schools in our district to celebrate October as Jessamine Cares Month. The Jessamine Cares Initiative was begun by a class of third graders last spring and works to collect money to help children all around the world. This week, we will participate in a Change Challenge collecting money to donate to orphaned children in Malawi, Africa to help them with food, education, and farming. Students can bring in change as well as cash and place it in their grade level jars in the cafeteria during breakfast or lunch. You can find out more about the initiative and the campaign from the news at the link below:
