Welcome to the Elkhorn Middle School's ESS Page! 

ESS is an extended school services that allows students the opportunity to receive extra help after school through either tutoring, completing a Retake of a test or Relearning Plan. 

ESS runs from 3:45-5:00 after school on most Tuesdays and Thursdays, except when school is not in session. During this time students are welcome to stay after school for extra help from certified teachers to complete homework, work on remediation for assessments, use the internet and work on iReady skills.

Students may request to attend ESS asking a teacher to fill out the referral form or they may fill out the form. They can find a form in their content teacher's google classroom. Referrals for Tuesdays are due by Monday and Wednesday for Thursday. 

ESS is to help students and not for students to hang out with their friends. 

Students attending ESS will wait till Mrs. Murphy dismisses them and then they will report to Ms. Sapp's room, #119. Students will be divided up into groups based on the content they are there to work on.

Expectations

During a student's time at ESS they are required to follow the school's code of conduct. Therefore any student who refuses to follow teacher directions or causes a disruption will receive consequences. On the first infraction, students will be moved from their location and receive a warning and the parent/guardian will be notified. After students are issued a warning and the behavior continues, students will be ineligible for ESS for 3 weeks. After that 3 weeks, students are allowed to return as long as they follow expectations.

Bus Transportation

Bus transportation is available for students who need a ride home. Students who ride the buses are expected to follow the directions of the bus driver and monitor at all times. Students who fail to do so will lose bus privileges upon having a report filed with the bus garage. After that students are still free to attend ESS, as long as they follow the school's code of conduct, however they will require transportation home. 

Please keep in mind that there is one or two buses for all ESS students to ride, therefore it may take a little longer than normal for all students to arrive at their stops.
