Weekly Update
August 8th, 2023
Reminder this is the last week for the 3rd 9 weeks. Students must have all of their work in prior to spring break. Please make sure you are logging into skyward and checking on your students grades and missing assignments, all work needs to be turned in by the end of the day on March 13th for 3rd 9 weeks grades. We will be starting track soon, if your child is wanting to be in track they need to be eligible.
We offer ASAP from 3:30-4:30 Monday-Thursday for students to get extra help on their assignments as well as get more time to get work completed. Let the office know if you would like your child to stay for ASAP this week.
Just another reminder of when our state assessments will be.
April 1st and 3rd will be Science State Assessments for 5th and 8th graders.
April 8-11 will be ELA State Assessments for all 5th-8th grade students.
April 14-18 will be Math State Assessments for all 5th -8th grade students.
Attached is the Amazon Wish List for snacks for State Assessments. Each time a student tests they are given a snack, a piece of gum and a mint or jolly rancher. With every student in the Middle School testing we like to make sure that they are fueled with a snack. This isn't made possible without the donations from all of you and we greatly appreciate all of those donations and I know the students enjoy the treats as well!
The items are just suggestion we will take anything you are willing to donate. Please bring donations to the office AFTER spring break, if you order off the list you can have it shipped directly to the school, 210 N Miller St. Meriden KS
