Dear Middle School Families,
We've had another great week in middle school! Can you believe it's already October? Everyone seems to be ready for Fall and our approaching Fall Intercession Break.
As we move closer to Fall Intercession in just one week, we encourage all families to check your student’s grades in PowerSchool and stay up to date on their progress. Checking PowerSchool at least once a week is a great way to monitor progress and ensure that nothing slips through the cracks. Having students check PowerSchool once a week, or more frequently, builds responsibility and independence. The more your student takes ownership of their learning, the more confident and prepared they'll feel in class. Keeping an eye on their progress helps students stay organized, meet deadlines, and avoid surprises at the end of the quarter.
Know of a staff member who goes above and beyond? Or maybe a staff member who works behind the scenes for our students? Nominate them today for Staff Member of the Month!
Lastly, please review classroom updates, important dates, and flyers below. This week is our first Spirit Week of the year! As an added surprise for middle/high school students, we'll have a Food Truck on campus on Thursday. The Food Truck is Pre-order only by 8:00PM Wednesday (see flyer below for ordering).
Thank you for your continued support!
Warmly,
Christy Dempsey, MS Principal
Susanne Teague, MS Counselor
