The Middle Update 12/3/21

In Strong School Cultures, People Articulate the Following CORE Beliefs Through How They Behave:

All Students Can Learn at High Levels

All Students Will Learn Because of What We Do

Students Do Well if They Can

What WE Do Makes the Difference for the Kids in School


Resource of the Week

Our resource this week comes to us from Mr. Ferkovich.  He sent me the following email and link.  While we see some of the behaviors in the article, I think other places are seeing more than we are...Enjoy!

"Maybe this is something you would want to share out, or not. No big deal either way. It's something I found useful and insightful during "these times".  It helped me process and refine my approach to some of our students that are happy little challenges."



Posting Grades at Mid-Term

We are about 3.5 weeks into the 2nd quarter already!  Many of you have posted grades in standards already, but if you have not, please have those posted by the end of the day on Wednesday (12/8).  As a reminder, please post current progress grades in the standards you are working in, while also keeping overall standard grades updated at least weekly.

For Puma Pride grades, please refer to the guidelines for posting.  I'll be sending an email out to parents mid-week.


Staff Shout-Outs

As I've gone around, and asked staff who they'd like to give a shout-out too, many of all of you think of the same people who routinely go above and beyond to support students and colleagues.  As we head into this week, I'd ask that everyone be on the lookout for colleagues that really contribute special things that maybe don't come to your mind right away when asked this question.  All of these contributions make for a special place for everyone in our school.


Book Fair
