Spring Break!


Here it is.....Spring Break! 2 more days and you all get to spring into a long break from school. For those students who are doing well....enjoy your time away from school. For those of you who aren't doing well... remember that you are allowed to complete missing work if your grade is below a 70%.

Have an awesome and safe Spring Break!

Busy Week


Spring has sprung and things are getting hopping around here! Students just took their Chapter 14 Open Note Quiz today. Lets hope the results are great!

On Wednesday, the high school counselors come to the middle school to present materials to the 8th graders about their 9th grade core classes and encore selections. Students will have a detailed packet to bring home and share with the parents about high school scheduling. 8th graders will then tour the high school on Thursday during school hours. On Friday, the counselors return to the middle school to assist the 8th graders in selecting their class schedule for next year.

Meanwhile...Thursday is the beginning of our Annual Sparty Cup Competition. Thursday's theme is Ugly Sweater Day and Friday is Decade Dress Up Day. Remember, every participant scores a point for his/her grade level.

This week both girls and boys track start practice, and I am sure other spring sports are getting started as well.

Whew....that's a lot. Parents, as you see...it will be an important week to be checking in and helping your child. Let me know if I can help you with any of the listed details.
