Dear 2021-22 Middle School Parents, 

Welcome to our classroom! We have been busily planning for an exceptional 2021-22 year for your middle school student, and look forward to the start of school on  Wednesday, Aug. 18th at 8:15AM! 

On Tuesday, August 24th, please mark Back to School Night for the Middle  School Parents on your calendars. The evening will be divided up as  following and will be held on Zoom

∙ 6-7:00pm Back to School Night for all 7th & 8th grade parents (all students need a representative) 

∙ 7-8:00pm New Parent Orientation for all new 7th grade parents (all 7thgrade students need a representative) 

At each meeting, you will hear about the amazing program(s) we have planned, ask questions, and receive the necessary paperwork needed for the year. 

The suggested supply list for your middle school student for the coming school year  (will need pencil/pen & 1 spiral notebook the first 2 days of school; other materials  will be needed through-out the year): 

*3- 1 ½” 3 ring binders, or 1- 3 ½” 3 ring binder 

*A calculator 

*Five college ruled, spiral bound, single subject notebooks (not wide ruled, multiple subject) 

*Graph paper (math) 

*Post-its (assorted sizes, including tab). 

*Durable tabs for filing for RJW notebooks. 

*3 x 5 lined index cards, 5 x 7 index cards: 2 packs each. 

*Subject dividers 

*College ruled binder paper 

*Protractor and a metric ruler 

*Pencils, erasable pens & regular pens (must be blue or black), 

*Whiteout, erasers 

*Masks

*Highlighters (4 different colors), black permanent markers, colored pencils

 

Classroom Needs: (please donate any of these items to our  

classroom…thanks!) Kleenex, wipes for tables, colored markers, college ruled binder  paper, graph paper, glue sticks, etc. 

Chromebook & Literature Books Donations: During the school year, each student  will be assigned a classroom Chromebook, and several Literature books. We are asking  for a $30 donation to help us purchase literature books, and help cover the cost to fix  normal “wear & tear” issues for the Chromebooks (this does not cover  neglect/misuse/loss of either of these items – guardians are responsible for replacement  cost). 

The MS Team is excited to start school on Wednesday!!!  Here are a couple of updates:
1.  Students need to bring a towel they can sit on for the park.  We will be using the park a lot at the beginning of this year!
2.  There have been some questions regarding lockers.  YES, the MS class will be getting lockers this year.  Lockers will be assigned on Monday, August 23rd.  Please remember, everything that is attachable, must be easily removable too.  Nothing permanent!  Also, if it eventually rains,  the inside of the lockers will get wet if the rain comes sideways, so we do not recommend students store anything of value.  Lockers are great for day use!
3.  We are still looking for Elective Volunteers!!  If you can give us an hour a week (either M, T, Th, or F) from 2-3pm please let us know by this Wednesday.  Volunteers who are vaccinated just need to show the office proof, and unvaccinated volunteers will need to be tested weekly.  At this point, everyone has to be masked.
