2009 Middle School Back to School Information
By Steve Mies
I hope that everyone is having a fun and safe Summer. There are
several items that I would like to bring to your attention. The
Middle School Office will open on Friday, July 31st. However, the
District Office is open all Summer, and Mrs. Peggy Hilliard is
always ready to provide assistance at 785-258-2263.
We are hosting a Food, Facts and Fun Night for all Middle School
students and their parents/guardians on Thursday, August 13th from
6-7:30 P.M. We will start serving hotdogs and chips at 6 PM. Please
bring your own lawn chairs. Our goal is to have teachers make short
presentations at around 6:30 PM. (Please keep in mind this will be
teachers' first contracted day, and their classrooms may not be
totally put back together.) I am looking forward to seeing all my
students and their parents/guardians at this special event!
The first day of school for sixth graders and new MS students will
be Tuesday, August, 18th, from 8:20-12 noon. We decided to continue
having this orientation opportunity because of the many positive
comments from students and parent/guardians. The first day of
school for all MS students will be Wednesday, August, 19th.
