Leaving Early for Winter Break? ✈️
Are you planning to leave early for winter break? Make sure that YOUR PARENTS send an email to msattendance@asmadrid.es to let the school know in advance. YOU should email your teachers to let them know and make a plan to make up any missed work.
Toys for Tots 🎁
We have a great opportunity to help the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve with their annual Toys for Tots program.
There are kids in our area who might not receive any gifts this year, and we can help change that. We are asking you to bring in new, unwrapped toys by December 19th.
Please bring your donations to the Christmas Tree here in the Middle School. Whether it’s a doll, a game, or a puzzle, your gift makes a huge difference.

Recess Reminders ⚽🏀
THANK YOU for returning the balls immediately when the whistles blow. Mr. Nugent is hungry and wants to go to lunch!
Pull-up bars are off limits
Bathrooms outside are off limits. Students should use the bathrooms in the MS.
Students are now welcome to use the MS Commons (steps and open space only) during recess time to work, relax, or play ping pong, board games, or the piano.
Students are not allowed to be upstairs in the MS, including the bathrooms, or behind the steps.
Taking Care of our MS 🧹
Clean up after yourselves, especially during snack time, with crumbs and wrappers. If you see something on the floor, pick it up, even if it’s not yours.
Push in chairs in our common spaces.
