Immunization records
While students are participating in these activities with their team teachers,
parents will be participating in a detailed and informative session on student
iPads (iPads will be provided to 6th grade students during the first
week of school). Prior to distributing iPads to 6th graders, we want to be
sure we provide you the most important information about student iPads,
including expectations, responsible use, tips for managing the iPad at home,
and how the iPad is used to support learning at school.
Bus routes
Volunteer procedures
We will hold our back-to-school orientation, Meet @ the Middle, for 6th
grade students and parents on Tuesday, July 28 from 6:30 8:30 pm.
Meet @ the Middle is a required orientation session held for all incoming 6 th
graders. At least one parent must attend with their child. During this session,
students will receive their team assignment, schedule of classes, and locker
assignment. We will also provide students the opportunity to tour the school,
try out their locker, and learn more about all the different opportunities and
programs at NEMS. Most important, students will be given the opportunity to
meet their team teachers and participate in some fun activities to help them
get to know their new teammates and teachers.
NOTE: We will also be providing parents who are not able to attend the July
28 session an alternative date/time on August 4 from 6:00 - 7:00 pm so they
may participate in this iPad meeting. We also ask parents of students who
are not able to attend Meet @ the Middle to contact our school prior to the
first student day in order to receive the students team assignment.
On the first day of school students should go directly to their team meeting
locations. Teachers will be posted throughout the building and at all car and
bus zone entrances to help all students find these locations as they enter
the building. Team assignments will be given to 6th grade students at Meet
@ the Middle, and to 7th & 8th grade students during the iPad distribution
days. If your child is unable to attend either of these events, please call the
school prior to August 3 for the team assignment. Team meeting locations
on the first day of school are as follows:
6th Grade
Stanford-Band Room
DePauw-Strings Room
West Point-Choir Room
Wisconsin-LGI Room
7th Grade
Butler-East Cafeteria
Franklin-West Cafeteria
Hanover-Media Center
8th Grade

Daily announcements
Noblesville East and West Middle School students will participate in four
eLearning days during the school year. They are scheduled on September
30, November 11, March 2, and April 27. On these days, students will
attend school through the last lunch period, and then be dismissed at
12:25 to go home to continue their learning by participating in learning
activities electronically through their school device and Canvas. These
eLearning days will allow teachers to participate in professional
development focused on teaching and technology in the classroom. See
the attachment for frequently asked questions regarding eLearning Days.
In addition to these four eLearning days, East and West Middle Schools
will also continue to participate in our traditional early release days. They
are scheduled for August 12, August 26, September 9, September 18
(Homecoming Friday), October 28, December 2, January 20, February 3,

be dismissed at 2:05, and a supervised study hall will be provided for
those students who must remain at school for after school activities.
Attendance procedures
If your child will be absent from school, please call our 24-hour attendance
line at 776-6258 before 9:00 am on the day of the absence and follow the
prompts. If no reason for the absence is given, the absence must be
recorded as unexcused.
When your child needs to leave for an appointment during the day, please
send a note stating the time you would like to pick up your child from
school and the reason. Your child should take this note to the Student
Services Office between 7:20 and 7:35 am to secure a pass to leave
school. At the designated time, your child should show the pass to the
teacher and will be dismissed to meet you. You must come in the building
to sign your child out and provide identification. When your child returns
from the appointment, he or she must check back in with a doctors
excuse before returning to class.
Pre-arranged absence request forms are to be completed should your
family have an activity or event that will force your child to miss school.
Please submit the form at least 5 days prior to the absence.
