Hello, Middle School Students and Families! Below is this week’s MS Meeting recap.
Lesleigh Robin ’30 and Rose Scott ’30 ran today’s meeting. You can check out the slides from this week’s meeting here.
THE BVR STUDENT
Fiona Freedman ’29 presented: Stays on task and follows directions.
“I think this is an important skill because it helps you to be a productive student. While getting distracted can be easy, it is important to refocus on your work to not fall behind. When you stay on task and follow directions, there is less of a chance you will fall behind.”
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Owen Eddy ’25 announced the upcoming Beaver Film Festival. This year’s theme is Heist. All students are encouraged to submit a film for this year’s festival by January 10. The festival will be on January 17 during lunch and recess.
Juliet Wasserman ’29 announced the Student Council candy jar. This month the jar is filled with maple candies. Each student can guess how many candies are in the jar. The winner will be announced before winter break.
Kieran Morrissey-Dhekne ’30 announced that the Lego League team is competing against other schools at the First Lego League competition! This year’s theme is submerged. The team has practiced and prepared throughout the fall for this competition and is excited to compete on Saturday, December 7, at Algonquin Regional High School in Northborough, Massachusetts.
Amanda Waters from the Philanthropy + Engagement Office came to the Middle School meeting today to kick off Founders’ Week. Happy 104th Birthday to Beaver!
