Schoology

This is our online learning management system. Here, you and your child will have access to all course materials and school information, including calendars, links, newsletters, and documents. You and your child can log into Schoology at https://schoology.dodea.edu (or from the Yokota Middle School Homepage). This site can be bookmarked in Chrome and accessed easily using the @student.dodea.edu email account. There is also an app available for smartphones.

Student Planners

The PTO graciously supplies all Yokota Middle School Students with a planner. Every day in core classes students enter the room, have a seat, and write homework and/or due dates in their planner in pen. Typically, teachers stamp the planner to acknowledge that students have copied the correct information into their planner. Due to social distancing, we will not be stamping planners and will do the best we can to monitor that students are following directions. Please help us by checking the student planner daily. If you see too many blank spaces, please contact your students seminar teacher and they will check in with your student about the planner. This is a great opportunity for students to learn responsibility and for them to learn how to get organized. The transition from one core classroom teacher to 7 different teachers is one of the biggest challenges for 6th graders.
