All students are invited to participate in an Bullying Prevention Creative Activity in support of JMUES as a school that is an anti bullying. You can show your support for Bullying Prevention Month by creating a poster, writing a poem, or composing a song!

Task: Create an anti-bullying poster, poem, or song with a strong message or slogan that promotes kindness and respect.

Requirements:

• Posters: Must be neat, colorful, and created on 8.5 x 11-inch paper.

• Poetry & Songs: Must feature original lyrics or verses with a clear, positive anti-bullying message.

• All Entries: Must clearly show that JMUES is against bullying, and be creative, positive, and meaningful.

Due Date: Students should turn in completed posters, written poems, or song lyrics to Mrs. Garbarz in Rm. 247 by October 30th.

Here at JMUES we use School Dismissal Manager to make changes to student's dismissals and to mark them as absent. SDM will go live on Wednesday, August 26th. You will receive an email from "James Mastricola Upper Elementary" that will include information on how to access your account. (Make sure to check your junk mail!)

Once you log in, set your student's "default dismissal". This is how your student will get home on a regular basis. Default dismissals can be set differently for each day of the week is needed.

If/when you ever need to make a change to your student's dismissal you can do so by creating an "exception". This will change your student's dismissal for the selected day and then return to the "default".

If you have any issues logging in or have any questions, please do not hesitate to give us a call in the main office: 603-424-6221
