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 3:45-4:45 after school on most Tuesdays and Thursdays. During this time students are welcome to stay for extra help from certified teachers, complete homework, work on remediation for assessments, use the internet and work on iReady skills. In order to sign up for ESS, students must have work in hand before they enter the ESS room along with a referral from a content teacher to attend that day. 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, not for students to hang out.
Upon dismissal, at the end of the day, all students will report to Ms. Sadler's room, #118. Students will be divided up into groups based on the content they are there to work on.
ESS WILL NOT BE HELD DURING TUESDAYS WHEN WE HAVE FACULTY MEETINGS.
Dates of No ESS: 11/15, Dec 13, Jan 10, Feb 7, Mar 7, Apr 11
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. 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 bus for all ESS students to ride, therefore it may take a little longer than normal for all students to arrive at their stops.
