Emerson Middle School Home

We would like to congratulate our Emerson Middle School Students of the Month for December: Luisa Gonzalez, Orianna Ramirez, and Analia Mujica! These are exceptional students in the Union City School District.

His message of hope, equality, and the power of peaceful protest remains vital in addressing contemporary issues of racial injustice, discrimination, and inequality.
He demonstrated how grassroots organizing, strategic nonviolence, and moral persuasion can overcome deeply entrenched systemic challenges.

The Union City School District is grateful to all the men and women who serve and protect our communities, especially our Union City Police Department. Today is the perfect time to show officers we understand how difficult their job is. It is important to show officers how much we understand their difficult work and appreciate their sacrifice and risk.

The Emerson Middle School would like to congratulate the three Students of the Month for November: Emily Carranza, Jaynie Mora, and Daniel Bastida!

On December 18, 1787, New Jersey became the 3rd state to ratify the U.S. Constitution and was admitted into the Union, with delegates from all 13 counties in New Jersey voting unanimously. New Jersey was nicknamed “The Garden State" in the nineteenth century by Abraham Browning, a Camden attorney, who stated, "the Garden State is an immense barrel, filled with good things to eat and open at both ends, with Pennsylvanians grabbing from one end and New Yorkers from the other.”
