East Middle School

🫶 | Be kind. This simple message is being shared at all of our school buildings this week through assemblies sponsored by the Noah Farrelly Memorial Fund. Noah was a 2018 BHS graduate who passed away in a traffic accident during his freshman year of college. Noah will always be remembered for the kindness he showed others, and now our students are being challenged to do their part to carry on his legacy. Each school has been given the task of completing FIVE THOUSAND acts of kindness over the next two weeks - with nine school buildings, that's 45 thousand total! #BPatriotProud

🏈📣Some of our High School Football Players and Cheerleaders came by East Middle School on Friday for a special assembly about how to keep good classroom habits and to hear what it will be like in High School! #BPatriotProud

❤️🤍💙 | At yesterday's grand opening of the BHS College & Career Center, we dedicated a sign to Class of 2018 alum Noah Farrelly. Noah tragically passed away in December of 2018 while running on campus at Stony Brook University. Noah exemplified the ideals of a Binghamton Patriot; this quote in his memory will remind students who use the College & Career Center to carry those traits with them as they leave BHS and embark on their post-graduation journeys. #BPatriotProud

👏 | Incredible job by BHS students Dennis & Samantha who were panelists at today’s Broome County Community Cafe: Strengthening Youth & Community Connections.
