A note from Ms. Markofski, Principal<\/b><\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

Dear Families and Friends of Sheboygan Falls Middle School,<\/p>\n

Signs of spring are all around us and we find ourselves facing the “final stretch” to the end of another school year.\u00a0 If you are like the rest of us, you’re probably finding yourselves making the same statement over and over again; “I can’t believe how fast this school year has gone!”\u00a0 As unbelievable as it may seem, we are heading into the final quarter of the 2014-2015 school year!<\/p>\n

The students have spent this school year making new friends, broadening their points of view, and preparing for life outside of school.\u00a0 While test scores and report cards are one measure of growth, they aren’t the only measure.\u00a0 This year students have been involved in many different outreach activities, reemphasizing the importance of giving back to our community.\u00a0 They have competed in academic, athletic, and fine arts competitions, developing collaborative skills that will benefit them in many different ways.<\/p>\n

Enjoy the remainder of the year!\u00a0 Please do not hesitate to contact me or the staff as needed.<\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n

Meloney Markofski<\/p>\n

News from 6th grade<\/b><\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n
Sixth grade is marching right along, and rather swiftly, too! We are already into 4th quarter, spring parent-teacher conferences have come and gone, and everyone is anxiously waiting for spring to make itself known. With the onset of spring come many annual activities that 6th graders have been enjoying throughout the years. Our most exciting activity will be our outdoor experience at the Sheboygan Marsh.<\/div>\n
