Principal News 5/15/26
Good afternoon Emerald Heights Families,Wow — what a week we had at EM! We began state testing this week, and I could not be more proud of our students. Our intermediate students worked hard and truly gave their best effort, and all students did such a wonderful job being respectful, encouraging, and supportive throughout the week.
Younger classes created posters and wrote encouraging notes for the intermediate students who were testing, which was such a great example of the kindness and support our students show one another. We truly have an amazing group of students. I couldn't be more proud.
Just a few updates for you:
⏰ Half Day Friday
Just a reminder that next Friday, 5/22, is a half day for students. There will also be no school on that following Monday, 5/25, in observance of Memorial Day.

To help your child do their best:
