Honor Roll

Each nine weeks we will publish a list of students who have academic averages high enough to be placed on one of the two honor rolls described below.

Honor Roll - No academic grade below A (90)

Merit Roll - No academic grade below B (80)

Honor Students

Each student with a cumulative grade point average between 90.0 and 94.9 at the end of the third nine weeks will be recognized as an Honor student at the annual Honors Program.  Those with academic averages of 95 and above will be recognized as Superior Honor students.  Departmental awards are given to those students who have excelled in a particular subject area based on academic and overall participation.

Academic Incentives

The ESMS Incentive Program rewards academic excellence and progress.  Incentives encourage academic achievement with privileges such as free admission to school events, and homework vouchers. The program encourages improvement in academics, behavior, attendance and attitudes. It encourages each student to work up to his/her potential and put forth his/her best effort.  Three primary features of the program are:  (1) Gold and Silver Club recognition of students who earned all A's or A's and B's each nine weeks, (2) Student of the Month recognition of most outstanding and most improved students, and (3) Perfect Attendance.  Each phase is described below.

Gold and Silver Clubs

Identification cards are issued each nine weeks to students earning all A's (Gold Club) or all A's and B's (Silver Club).  The card lists special privileges the student receives. Students making all A's receive a T-shirt and lunch at a local restaurant. Both groups receive free ice cream, free admission to ESMS activities, excused tardies, and homework vouchers.

Students of the Month

Each month teachers from a designated department or team select from their classes students who demonstrated outstanding achievement or made the most improvement.  These students must have a C or better grade, a satisfactory relationship with teachers and peers, good attendance and good behavior.  Names and pictures of students are displayed on the cafeteria bulletin board.  Students' names are highlighted over the intercom and listed in the local newspaper.  The Parent Support Group treats students to a party.
