Going into Jr. High is such a trying time for these kids because of the age they are at and the distractions that come there way. The staff at EMS is prepared for this and are able to keep the kids focused on what is important, their grades and getting prepared for high school. All around, Enterprise has an awesome sports program that gets the kids involved in extra activities to motivate them and help them with confidence. The reading and math programs at EMS are outstanding. The staff is dedicated to these kids and it shows, making a parent feel confident about where her child is attending school.
