Hello EJMS Family and Friends -
It was great to be able to talk with several of you at our Back to School Block Party about our weekly newsletter. Let us know if there's something that's missing that would be helpful for us to include. We're enjoying this cooler weather and hope you are as well. It's going to be another great week at EJMS!

The Jessamine County United team participated in year 4 of the Brothers’ Run this morning ☀️
Brothers' Run is a nonprofit organization established in memory of brothers, Mason & Ethan Gilbert, to support school and community programs that provide adolescent mental health services, and suicide prevention and awareness.
Brothers' Run has graciously donated funding to our Sources of Strength program at EJMS and other secondary schools in Jessamine County; a student-led suicide prevention program to increase help-seeking behaviors and promote connections between peers and caring adults 💙💚


First place cheese pull! 🏆 #proudtoroar
