Middle School Matters

Happy Friday!



I hope you have had a blessed week.  I certainly have!

Social Media Awareness Meeting



I hope each of you will make plans to attend our first-ever Social Media Awareness meeting this coming Monday evening, March 7, at 6:30 in Willett Hall.  Liz Carter, a local attorney and social media law expert, will be speaking about the potential land mines associated with this new technology.  The truth is, our kids understand it better than we do, and it poses more dangers than we think it does.

Please don't miss this important event.  It is important that we all have a clear understanding of just what our children are facing these days.

Common Sense Media

The folks over at Common Sense Media recently released their annual Spring Movie Preview.  This brief article gives you a heads-up on the hottest spring movies that your kids may ask to go see.  You may access the preview by clicking here.

End of Third Nine-Weeks



It is hard to believe that our third quarter is officially in the books!  Please encourage your child to bear down and work hard in this final stretch!

Spring Break
