Middle School Notes

Good Afternoon!

I hope your first week of school was a good one!  We had a very smooth start to the school year, and your children are to be congratulated making everything work so well.

Here are some important reminders as we begin thinking about week two and beyond:

1. Please make sure that your children label all of their belongings.  With class changes and locker stops, we tend to find misplaced items in the hall.  However, it is impossible for us to match an item with the owner when there is no name written anywhere.  If your child is missing something, have them stop by the front office and look through the lost and found box.

2. In an effort to help your child learn valuable organizational skills, we are using student planners in all of our classes.  Teachers are working to ensure that homework assignments are written in planners each day, and we are asking that you check these at home each evening.  Tests will continue to be posted on this blog each Friday afternoon.

3. Please note that our tutoring fees have increased this year from $25 per hour to $30 per hour.  You may contact Connie Cantey, our middle school tutor, if you are interested in tutoring services for your child.  She may be reached at ccantey@trinitywildcats.com . 

4. Please continue to help us with carpool.  Middle school students may be picked up in front of Willett Hall.  It is very important that you pull forward as far as possible in the carpool line so we don't overflow onto Trinity Blvd.  Thanks so much for your cooperation!

Tests next week: None

Have a wonderful, restful weekend!
