6th grade Social Studies

Good afternoon parents and students. Please look for (especially in those paper eating book bags) a Social Studies packet to be completed by the students over the break. I will be collecting it on the Monday when we return.
I am giving this packet so that students can have reading, writing, and researching activities that will help them keep what they have learned fresh in their minds for the CRCT at the end of the year. Thank you for everything and have a great, great, great, holiday season. See you all next year.

Defacing School Property

December 16, 2008

Dear Parents,

It has been brought to our attention that the middle school boys have been smoking and burning paper in the bathroom. Please note that it is an automatic expulsion if your child is caught with a lighter at school. Furthermore, our boys have been systematically trying to destroy the bathroom. There is ripped up tile on the floor, a basketball sized hole punched in the wall, and the toilets are stopped up with paper on a daily basis. Destruction of school property is an automatic 10 day suspension. Please understand that if your student is caught, there will be a bill sent home for the damage.
Please help us keep our boys on track. Please check for lighters and other contraband before dropping your child off at school. Please stress to them the importance of school pride and the consequences for defacing school property. Our boys will now be escorted to the bathroom by a male teacher. If your child is witness to an incident, please encourage them to let a teacher know. Thank-you in advance for your cooperation and your intervention from home.


The 6th grade team,
Ms. Bynoe
