Hello, Middle School Students and Families!
Welcome to the Middle School Meeting recap. A recap will be shared after each Middle School Meeting to give you an overview of what happened. We hope this gives you an easy conversation starter with your middle schooler who answers your question, “How was school today?” with “fine”. It will also give you a window into the opportunities offered to middle school students so you can gently nudge and encourage your child to try new things. Enjoy!
Ms. Smith and I ran today’s meeting but usually, a student leads. I asked any MS student who was interested in running a meeting to let me know!
You can check out the slides from this week’s meeting here. You’ll see some of the slides linked below in a few of the announcements.
Ms. Smith and I welcomed everyone to the first MS Meeting of the 2024-2025 school year. We spoke about what happens in MS Meeting (announcements, talking about what’s going on in our MS community) and what we expect from them as an audience (to listen and participate appropriately).
- We introduced the BVR Student, which we will talk about each week in MS Meeting and advisory.
- We praised them for a smooth handoff of phones and watches this morning for our no phones/smart watches policy.
All Middle School faculty introduced themselves, including what they do at Beaver and their favorite dessert.
Music section leaders had a meeting to get ready for the first day of music class which is today!
Where to be before and after school
- Students who arrive on campus before 7:55 a.m. (8:55 a.m. on Mondays) can have breakfast in the Dining Hall.
- Students on campus after 4 p.m. must be in room 105 doing schoolwork.
We spoke about lunch. We enjoyed lunch outside and played grade-level games at recess.
Thursday is Picture Day! Students will be brought down by their teachers to get their pictures taken. All pictures will be taken in the Front Circle.
And that’s a wrap on first day of school announcements. We’re looking forward to a great school year!
