Why is my child always dismissed last to eat lunch? • Assigned seating to protect the innocent. • Students are seated in neighborhoods • First 15 minutes are silent (students can work on homework or read a book) • Rotating dismissal • NID’s eat last • Washroom passes • We have never measured the noise level because it probably exceeds OSHA standards! • If students are not silent or owe money they sit in the back lobby of the lunch room or SAS room.

  20. Tips for Parents • Relearn all that LaMaze breathing stuff. Having a middle schooler is as exciting and sometimes as painful as childbirth. • The Bill of Rights police will not arrest you if you occasionally snoop in book bags and bedrooms. That is your parental right and responsibility. • Seventh and Eighth graders are bona fide amnesia victims and rarely remember requests made by people over the age of fourteen. Please push that they use their assignment notebook. • Problems are an opportunity for growth. Don’t panic if your child gets a detention. Look on the bright side - some teacher cares enough to spend time before or after school with your child. • The key words for student growth and success in Middle School is… RESPECT & RESPONSIBILITY & ORGANIZATION

  21. What’s the worst thing a kid can do? Miss School
