If any EMS parents or family of the boys want to learn more about how wrestling works, we will be meeting in the wrestling room for the fans this Wednesday at 5:30, after practice. We will be as brief as possible, covering the basics of the rules and point system. It’s more fun to watch if you know what is happening!
Happy Halloween 🎃 from the 5th grade class!










Everest Middle School Veterans Day Program

Our sixth graders have finished their Relationships with Nature unit, which included reading Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. Throughout the novel, students participated in hands-on activities that brought Brian’s survival experiences to life.
Students sampled chokecherry jelly to get a taste of the wild berries Brian discovered in the woods. Students tried using flint and steel to make a fire. They experienced firsthand just how frustrating and challenging it was for Brian. Students sampled MREs (Meals Ready-to-Eat) to experience the kind of food Brian found in the survival kit he retrieved from the wrecked plane.
These activities gave students a fun, hands-on way to connect with the story and better understand the challenges Brian faced while surviving in the wilderness.
