This week is our final Fire Safety week at NEMS for the year! As part of our focus on safety, we want to stress the importance of preparedness when it comes to responding to the possibility of a fire.

It’s Traffic Safety Week @ NEMS

“This week is Traffic Safety Week at NEMS! As part of our focus on student safety, we want to stress the importance of driver, pedestrian, and bicycle safety for all students. With this in mind, we would like to stress the importance of safe practices regarding the following modes of student transportation:

 

  • Parent Transportation (Drivers): Smartphones, handheld games, noise-canceling headphones, and other technology present safety concerns when students are distracted while traveling. It’s important for families to partner with us to reinforce safety. Drivers: Follow posted speed limits, school zone lights, other signage, and directions from crossing guards. Stay alert at all times. Be aware of the surroundings. Cut out distractions like texting while driving. Be patient.

 

  • Pedestrian & Bicycle Riders: Look both ways before crossing traffic . Follow posted signage and directions from crossing guards. Use designated crosswalks. Stay alert at all times. Be aware of surroundings. Cut out distractions like texting while traveling, handheld games, and noise-canceling headphones. Be patient.

Fire Safety Week March 18-22, 2024

“This week is Fire Safety week at NEMS! As part of our focus on safety, we want to stress the importance of preparedness when it comes to responding to the possibility of a fire. With this in mind, ask your parents to install smoke detectors on every floor and in the sleeping areas of your home. Smoke detectors can save lives. Ask your parents to show you where each one is located.” 😊

Important Message from Mr. Stinson

The Tennessee Department of Education recently released school, district, and state data. Under the Implementation of the federal mandate of the “Every Student Succeeds Act,” the state accountability plan evaluates schools in five specific areas: Achievement, Growth, Absenteeism, English Language Proficiency, and College and Career.

 

Additionally, under the federal Every Student Succeeds Act the state is required to identify schools with struggling performance in a federally identified subgroup. These subgroups include each individual racial/ethnic group, students with disabilities, economically-disadvantaged students, and English Learners. These rules have remained in place as school districts across the nation have struggled through the pandemic and standardized assessment concerns since March 2020.

 

Northeast Middle has been identified as a Targeted Support and Improvement (TSI) school for the student subgroups of economically disadvantaged, black, Hispanic, Native American, and white for student achievement.

 

Our school is working strategically with the district and the Tennessee Department of Education to improve students’ performance by focusing on TIER I instruction, providing research-based, highly-effective interventions for struggling students, and utilizing strategic and ongoing data feedback. As our most powerful partner in this work, we invite you to help by participating in our school improvement efforts, joining us at school events, and providing feedback. Additionally, please partner with us to ensure your child is on time and present at school each day.

 

Sincerely,

 

Evan Stinson

Safety Week Aug 28-Sept 1

A Note from Mr. Rowe concerning fire safety at home:

 

“This week is Safety Week at NEMS! As part of our focus on safety, we want to stress the importance of preparedness when it comes to responding to the possibility of a fire. With this in mind, talk to your parents about making a home escape plan in case of a fire. Draw a map of your home showing all doors and windows. Discuss the plan with everyone in your home”. 

 

Parents, we practice fire drills all the time. Fires happen more in homes than in schools. Have a plan for how to get out of the house and where to meet. And Practice, Practice, Practice!
