Pirate Post- 2/1/2026
💜🏴☠️💜🏴☠️Hello Pirates!
I want to take a moment to appreciate everyone who stepped up this week. Among those, Mr. Pease brought energy and pride to our building by decorating for the West Minico rival game and celebrating our All-District students in the music hallway. Mr. Larson kept the galley running on a night when the crowds were absolutely wild. Mrs. Miller did an outstanding job preparing our students for—and launching—ACCESS Testing. These are the dedications that are observed on a daily basis by our East Minico Pirates. However, we cannot forget the terrific community that we thrive in. So often we have parents come out of the woodwork to help us when we are in a time of need. We appreciate the community for always being willing to listen and to help us problem solve. We are so grateful to work with only the greatest parents and students. I am especially proud of our families for always taking our phone call and holding students accountable. I'm so grateful that our after-school tutoring center is being taken advantage of by our families. Seeing this engagement surrounding student success and independence for life is critical!
This is who we are as Pirates. We see a need, and we fill a need. I am so proud to be an East Minico Pirate! 💜🏴☠️💜🏴☠️
