Every month, the staff and students at Beer Middle School work on a character trait. The character trait for October is Hardworking. Hardworking means being hardworking means putting in consistent effort, even when a task is difficult or boring, to reach a goal. It's about developing the self-discipline to do your best work and being resilient when you face challenges.

The Beer Booster Halloween Fundraiser is on October 29 from 3:00-5:00PM. See the flyer below. The cost is $10 and wristbands will be sold at all lunches on October 22 & Oct 24. Wristbands will also be sold at the school store in the morning on 10/22, 10/23, and 10/24.

Dear Parent or Guardian:

We are pleased to inform you that we will be participating in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) as part of the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs.

The GREAT NEWS is that ALL students enrolled at our schools can receive a healthy breakfast and lunch at NO CHARGE to your household each day.

In place of the Free and Reduced-Price Meal Application, we still need your household to complete a Education Benefit Form. This report is critical in determining the amount of money that our school receives from a variety of State and Federal supplemental programs like Title I A, At-risk (31a), Title II A, E-Rate, etc.

These supplemental programs have the potential to offer supports and services for our students including, but not limited to:

• Instructional supports (staff, supplies & materials, etc.)
• Non-instructional services (counseling, social work, health services, etc.)
• Professional Learning for staff
• Parent and Community engagement supplies and activities
• Technology

We are asking that you please complete and submit the Education Benefit Form as soon as possible to ensure that additional funding for our school is available to meet the needs of our students. All information on the report submitted is confidential. Without your assistance in completing and returning the report, our school cannot maximize the use of available State and Federal funds.

If we can be of any further assistance, pleases the Nutrition Services office at 586.698.4158.

Attendance matters, if your child is sick/absent, please call the attendance line at 586-698-4489. Students and parents can check their teacher's Schoology page http://www.wcskids.net/Departments/Curriculum/LearningAtHome/schoology/index.htmlor email their teachers http://www.wcskids.net/empdirectory/location.aspx?loc=25 for absent/missed work
