Welcome! We would like to welcome you to Elkhorn "Classic" Middle School. Here at EMS we take great pride in working harder than anyone to meet the needs of your child. We are confident you will be happy with every aspect of the Elkhorn Community.

If you ever have any questions leading up to the school year or after we get started, please don't hesitate to call the office at 289-2428. We are here to make sure your kids feel safe and comfortable and have a blast at EMS.

A quick history lesson: We got our name, Elkhorn "Classic" Middle School in 2003 when the district built its second middle school. Rather than being called the "old" middle school, Kathy Lockhart, an 8th grade Social Studies teacher who was in her last year before retirement, coined the term "Classic" middle school. The name stuck and we have been referred to as the "Classic" middle school ever since!

....New student registration will be held August 3rd and 4th at the Elkhorn Middle School and Elkhorn Ridge Middle School between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Please contact the school for information. In addition, we will hold an orientation on Tuesday, August 17th at 7:30 p.m. for students and families who have moved to Elkhorn over the summer.

....On Tuesday, August 10th from 1:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and on Wednesday, August 11th from 9:00 a.m. to Noon, ALL middle school students and parents are invited to EMS to fill out all paperwork, order a yearbook, set up lunch accounts, update health records (immunizations and physicals), pick up schedules and have their picture taken (please dress appropriately!).
