Sources of Strength Week

Sources of Strength Week – Supporting Our Students Together!
October 27th - October 31st, our school will be celebrating Sources of Strength Week, a program focused on building resilience, promoting mental wellness, and encouraging connection among students. Throughout the week, students will participate in fun, meaningful activities centered around key strengths like family support, positive friends, mentors, healthy activities, and more.
As parents and caregivers, you play a vital role in supporting these strengths at home. We encourage you to ask your child about what they're learning, share your own sources of strength, and help us continue these important conversations beyond the classroom.
Together, we can build a stronger, more connected, and caring community!

Dear Parents and Guardians,
We want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your support throughout the fall season. Whether you cheered from the sidelines, attended performances, volunteered your time, or simply encouraged your student to participate, your involvement made a meaningful difference.
It was wonderful to see so many families come out to support our students across a wide range of extracurricular activities. Their growth, teamwork, and enthusiasm were truly inspiring, and much of that success is thanks to your continued encouragement.
As we look ahead, we're excited to kick off the winter season of activities and events. We know our students will continue to thrive with the same dedication and support you've shown all year long.
Feed the Light!

Rebecca Puckett
Rebecca Puckett
Rebecca genuinely cares for students and goes the extra mile to help them. She also is a very caring staff member and encourages her colleagues. Rebecca is invested in her students' success. For those students who are new to her caseload, she does her research to see what makes them tick and tries to figure out new ways to reach their goals in the most expedient time. We can see her efforts in the students she serves! She makes the time to have conversations with involved parties and discusses student struggles honestly. She never gives up on a child! Around the building you can see her selling hat stickers, working at events to support the school and her fellow teachers, and scheming with her colleagues to plan trips and positive things for kids to experience.
We are so grateful that Mrs. Puckett is part of the North Hall Middle School family and are thrilled to celebrate her as our 2026 Teacher of the Year!
