Happy New Year!\u00a0 It\u2019s crazy to think that we are already past the halfway point of the school year.\u00a0 It is a great time to pause for students, families, and staff to reflect on what is going well, what can be improved, and set a goal for the second half of the school year.\u00a0 As a Middle School, the goal that we will continue from the beginning of the school year is creating positive relationships with all of our students!<\/span><\/p>\n

The midpoint of the school year is also the time for the next round of I-ready assessments.\u00a0 The growth is a good indicator of all the hard work the students and staff have been working towards this year.\u00a0 A reminder that all students are expected to pass two math and two reading lessons from their personal myPath.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As always, if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact us.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the month of January, the Middle School practiced a full medical response drill.\u00a0 The drill includes our district nurses and our medical response team at the Middle School.\u00a0 This drill consists of a scenario that takes place with the appropriate team members coming to assist.\u00a0 An example could be a \u201cbee sting\u201d outside at the playground, causing a student to receive medical attention.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
