We have multiple events coming up this fall that we would love volunteers for! We have 2 programs we run with 7th and 8th grade students that teach them financial education through a budget simulation (Reality Store & Get a Life) as well as our Annual Career Day which will be on Friday, October 24th this year. If you are able to volunteer at any of these events, please use the QR codes on the pictures to sign up! Thanks in advance for all willingness to volunteer - our students look forward to these events each year, and we could not do them without you!
Beginning of year updates attached: sixth grade orientation, medication updates, immunization reminder, first day of school details and updates from the school nurse!
Today our sixth grade team came together to learn about the Botvin Life Skills program. Our school is part of a 3-year grant cycle utilizing this program through the University of Colorado Boulder. We are so excited to begin implementation and see the growth our students make in the next three years and beyond!

Just a reminder: We are in the office from 9-2 until next Tuesday, June 17th. Please come by to pick up report cards, end of year awards, and Bogg bags!

Reminders: Monday is the last day of school and will be an early release (dismissal at 12:30 pm). Report cards will go home with students. Bogg Bags will also be available to be picked up starting on Monday!
We will post an update when Bogg Bag orders are ready for pick up. We will also post an update when report cards are ready. We are waiting on a few fixes by our tech department before we can print report cards.
Tomorrow is our End of Year Field Day!! We're excited for a fun-filled day!
CLARIFICATION -- Parents are welcome to come to the ceremony. However, all kids will be in the bleachers and there will not be a lot of room. I am sorry for any confusion that exists. We only do a formal ceremony with parents for the 8th Grade students each year. If you planned to come, please feel welcome to come. :)
Awards Ceremony --- There has been some confusion about the 6th & 7th Grade Awards Ceremony. We do an 8th Grade Ceremony with parents because it is their last year with us.
However, we do the 6th & 7th Grade Awards Ceremony in house. This is not a ceremony like the one for 8th Grade. The students come to the gym and sit in the bleachers. The teachers hand out their awards.
The 6th & 7th Grade students will have their turn for the formal ceremony when they are in the 8th Grade. I hope this clears up any confusion that may exist.
Families: If you ordered an 8th grade locker gram, please bring your money tomorrow. Our promotion ceremony will begin at 9 am.
Reminders: Tomorrow field trip permission slips along with any outstanding doctor and/or parent notes for this six weeks are due in order to attend the trip! Also, we will be practicing for 8th grade promotion tomorrow afternoon, so please make sure your eighth-grade students are at school if possible!
Our fax machine is currently down - if you have tried to have any doctor notes or anything else faxed to us today, please either email it to Lnshaw@k12.wv.us or send a copy to the school.
