Abandoned Property @ EMMS
Several iPhones and a Kindle were left in the school unclaimed during the 2019-2020 school year. Several attempts were made through PA announcements to our student body to find the owners before the March 2020 lockdown. If you believe a device is yours and would like to claim it, we would need you to provide the serial number or show a receipt identifying a device as your property.
