Their heartfelt work reminds us that even the smallest acts of courage, kindness, and service can make a difference.
We remember. We honor. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

We’re proud to start the year with this group and can’t wait to see the impact they make at NEMS and beyond! ⭐


Today in journalism class, students practiced telling one school story through six different shots — wide, medium, tight, action, reaction, and detail. It's the same skill that shapes every great yearbook spread.

Our NEMS Agriculture students have been busy getting their hands dirty and putting their skills to work as they plant and care for our fall flowers and vegetables! 🌱🧑🌾
We’re excited to watch their hard work grow and look forward to sharing our plants with the community! 💙💛
Be on the lookout for more information about our available plants, dates, prices, and how to shop!
Thank you for supporting NEMS Agriculture and helping us grow the next generation through hands-on agricultural education! 🌱🚜💙💛

Mark your calendar and get those smiles ready—Northeast Middle School Picture Day will be:
📅 Friday, October 2, 2026
We want every student present and picture-ready! These photographs are more than keepsakes—they will also be used for the NEMS yearbook and Infinite Campus.
For our 8th-grade students, this picture will also be used for their freshman student ID when they begin high school next year.
Please make every effort to be at school on October 2 and come ready to smile! 💙📸
