Middle School Scoop 1/16

January 15, 2025

Grading Change –

In order to try and help students get their absent work turned in before the end of their 2 days, the middle school team has decided to mark absent work as missing (since it technically is). The students will still be able to receive full credit on their assignments, unless they turn it in late. We will reiterate this again during parent teacher conferences if you have questions.

Conferences – January 16th and 17th
It’s time for our Spring Student-Led Conferences.  Please double check the time slot you selected.  Each conference should last about 25 minutes and will be with all of the middle school teachers at the same time.  It is important that we meet with parents of all full-time students.  Homeschool parents can also request a conference, but please contact your child’s homeroom teacher to set up an alternate date.  We look forward to seeing you and discussing your child’s journey!

Upcoming Half Days and No School
January 16th and February 5th are both half-day dismissals. Middle school will be dismissed at noon. 

January 17th, January 20th, and February 17th there is no school. 

Sanitizing Wipes Needed
With middle school students switching classes several times a day, students use sanitizing wipes each time they enter the classroom. Miss Mondary and Mr. McCarthy would greatly appreciate if a container or two from families of Colorx wipes or similar brands. Thank you for helping us keep students healthy!
