Parent Connection - October 22, 2018

Parent Resource
The Parent/Teen Connect website that goes along with our Social-Emotional Learning curriculum is a great resource for parents.  The link below will take you to a site that discusses parent-teen communication, and provides guidance for how to communicate effectively with your teenage child.

ParenTeen Connect - Communication

End of Quarter 1 is quickly approaching
The end of the 1st quarter is on Friday, November 2.  Report cards will be mailed home near the end of the following week.  Students will also receive a copy of their report card in their Homerooms on Friday, November 9th.  They will analyze the results and teachers will guide students through a reflection of their own performance in the Homeroom period.

We pay close attention to student performance in our Puma Pride standards:
     -Completes and returns work in a timely manner,
     -Follows classroom expectations,
     -Puts forth effort to complete work of high quality,
     -Treats others with kindness,
     -Follows school rules.

These are areas that correlate with academic success, and skills that employers are looking for in their employees.  Having all scores at "Meets Expectations" (ME) is our goal for every student.

Upcoming Events
Friday, October 26 - Dress Like Your Favorite Book Character Day
Friday, October 26 - Halloween Dance (sponsored by PAD Parent's Club)
     -Middle School students - 7:30 - 9:00 in the 1-8 Gym
