Sparty Cup and Celebrate Success

On Wednesday, March 28, we will have a couple of events take place that are out of the norm.  In the morning, 8:30-12:30, all students on the Honor Roll for second trimester will travel to 3 Mile Project to have some fun.  These students are asked to bring a sack lunch as food will not be served there. 

In the afternoon, 12:50-2:20, we will hold our annual Sparty Cup finale.  This is an afternoon of activities that pit grade level against grade level.  The intent is to celebrate Spartan and grade level spirit.  We have held a week of spirit through grade level participation in dress up days.  Each grade level earns points based on the number of students who participate. The winning grade level earns bragging rights and can celebrate with the Sparty Cup traveling through the advisories.

Parents are invited to come to Sparty Cup and cheer on the students...oh, and laugh at the staff that try to compete with superior middle school talent.

Celebrate Success Update (note the time and destination change)

All students that are on the honor roll for second trimester will be invited to a field trip to 3 Mile Project.  We will be leaving our building by bus on March 28 at 8:00 am.  We will return around 12:00.  Students will be asked to bring a brown bag lunch or they can purchase pizza at the complex.  That afternoon the students will also be participating in our annual Spring grade level competition, Sparty Cup.  This day should be a fun filled celebration.

Heat is Back On!!

I want to inform you that DTE has come out to the building and remedied the problem.  We now have both of our boilers running at full power.  The building should be up to normal temperatures in an hour or so.

Dylan Bromley- Way Cool!!

Dylan is a seventh grader in our school.  We have always thought he was a special young man.  It appears that Maranda has  found out what we already knew.  Dylan is a speed skater in the Special Olympics.  Maranda, from WOTV Channel 4,  did a little spotlight of him recently.  Below is the attachment. It is worth the time and look.

Hitting the Ice with Dylan

Heat down at the middle school

We were welcomed this morning by cool temperatures in the middle school this morning.  We have identified the cause as poor natural gas pressure into the building.  This has caused the boiler to not operate at an acceptable level.  We have allowed the students to wear the clothing they have to make themselves comfortable.  We will continue to monitor the situation and make you aware of any updates and decisions.  As we are right now we are continuing school.  If you feel it is necessary, you are welcome to pick up your child and excuse them for the day.
I appreciate your support and understanding.
