Be Nice. Be Safe. Work Hard.
August 2025
Dear Parents & Guardians-
You are cordially invited to Merton Williams Middle School Family Open House on Tuesday, September 9th @ 6:00 pm. We hope you will join us to learn more about your child’s current school experience, meet their teachers, and learn general information related to curriculum and classroom processes. Open House is not a time to discuss student-specific questions. If you would like to request a conference, please contact your child’s counselor or Team Leader to schedule a conference on the evening of October 30th. Due to space constraints, we ask that only parents and guardians attend this event. We also encourage carpooling as parking can be tight. Please use the MW lots, the MW Bus Loop, and the Village Elementary Bus Loop. Drive safely and watch for pedestrians.
You will follow an abbreviated “J-Day” schedule from 6:00-7:34 and receive an overview of your child’s course of studies. Teachers will post class information in their Google Classroom following Open House for those who cannot attend, for those who want to take a second look, and to view Information for your child’s I-day classes that you will be unable to visit during Open House. Ask your child to show you Google Classroom. It will give them an opportunity to show you a platform they use daily.
At the conclusion of set eight, parents and guardians of 7th graders are dismissed.
If your child is in 7th grade band or chorus, please see the highlighted note below.
Parents and guardians of 8th graders are invited to the MIR for an important informational meeting about our 8th Grade Trip to Washington, DC from May 18-21. The meeting will run approximately 7:40-8:15.
Please sign on to the Infinite Campus Parent & Student Portal to access your child’s “J-Day” schedule. You can find more information about accessing the Parent & Student portal here: HCSD IC Portal Support. We look forward to seeing you at Open House!
Sincerely,
Marc D’Amico, Ed.D
