Posting this at 9:30 PM. If you are an East Minico student, it is time to power down devices for the night. Research shows that powering down 30-60 minutes before bed improves sleep. Read a book for the next 30 minutes and get a good night's rest.💜
Parents, remember that traffic is very heavy in the morning, so give yourself plenty of time to drop your student off. Better yet, drop them off a block away and let them walk the rest of the way. 🏴‍☠️

🚨 PARENTS – IMPORTANT BUS REMINDER! 🚨
❗ Do NOT send your child on the bus without knowing their home address — or having it written down and placed in their backpack.
🚌 If we don’t know where they live, we can’t get them home safely.
Thank you for helping us keep every student safe and get them home on time! 💛

East Minico teachers met today to set goals and prep for the school year.🏴‍☠️ We capped off the day by doing a "Treasure Drop" where teachers dropped off treats to students. It was fun to see the confused smiles on their faces when they saw teachers at their door.😂 Thanks to the Wilson Theatre for providing the venue for our training!💜 #eastminico #historicwilson #goirates #piratepirde

📢 We’re Going Phone-Free at East Minico!
Starting this school year, students will be expected to keep phones and earbuds off and in lockers from 7:45 AM to 3:45 PM.
Why the change? Because we believe students learn best when they’re present, focused, and connected to each other—not their screens.
Our letter about the policy change can be found at https://secure.smore.com/n/12vr3
