Middle School Notes


Happy Friday!

I hope everyone enjoyed a great Veteran’s Day Holiday this week.  More importantly, I hope you took some time to remember those who bravely serve our country, have in the past, and, most especially those who have given their lives for the freedoms we enjoy.  We owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to our men and women in uniform.

If you have signed up to attend our bonfire tomorrow night, I look forward to seeing you there!  We are going to enjoy food, fellowship, and football (of the SEC variety!) beginning at 6pm near our tennis courts.  Parents may pick students up from this event at 8pm.  Many thanks to Julie Green and our social committee for making this happen!

Eighth grade parents are reminded of our Washington, D. C. trip meeting this coming Wednesday at 2:15 p.m. in Willett Hall.  The “DC Trip” is a blast each year, and we’re looking forward to taking your kids along in February!

As we wind down the nine-weeks, please pay careful attention to your child’s academic progress.  Lower grades are common after a tragedy the likes of which we experienced recently.  It may take a little more support than normal for some of our students.  Please feel free to contact your child’s teachers with academic concerns.  As always, we are happy to schedule conferences to discuss academic or other matters with you.

Here are our tests for the coming week:

6th Grade:

Thursday – Social Studies

Friday – Science

7th Grade:

Wednesday – Math

Thursday – Science

Friday – Civics, Pre-Algebra

8th Grade:

Wednesday – Old Testament

Thursday – Pre-Algebra

Have a Great Weekend!
