MIDDLE SCHOOL
Updates
January 26th was the end of first semester. Make sure you review your grades for each of your classes in Student Connect. This month 8th grade students took a trip to Thurston to tour the school. Students had the opportunity to meet some of their future teachers, talk with current Thurston students about their experiences, have lunch in the cafeteria, ask questions, sign up for clubs and extracurricular activities, and see some of the classes they may be taking.
Homework Clinic
There is a homework clinic specially designed for ESP students to attend. It is on Mondays and Thursdays from 3:10 to 4:10 in the nutrition room. If you choose to attend you must stay the entire time. There is a late bus provided for students who ride the bus. If you are on probation you are required to attend at least once per week. This is overall a great opportunity for students to work on classwork.<<PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS>>
