If you have driven by the front of the school lately, you're probably wondering if Emerson can possibly open for classes in twenty-something days. I assure you that we will.
The front of the school is still a fenced-off construction zone, and if you absolutely must go to the office, please don't try to go through the front parking lot. The offices will be open again starting on Monday, August 2, but for now, the entrance is marked by a "Temporary School Entrance" sign by the cafeteria gate. Please call first (788-7462 ext 0) before you come in, maybe we can save you a trip. Beside being an active construction zone on all 4 sides of the office building, the front office staff is working to implement a new student information system as well as adjust to the closure of the Centralized Registration Center.
Students and parents naturally want to know who their teachers will be. Class lists/ classroom assignments will not be ready until a couple of days prior to the start of school. We ask that you not call to ask, but instead that you wait until Thursday, August 19, and then come check out the new front entrance of the school and find out your child's teacher. This will allow the front office to work on registering new students and helping the staff get settled into the new school year.
I look forward to seeing all of you soon. Enjoy your last few weeks of summer vacation!
