News
Our students are making headlines, and we want to share all the great news with you. We will keep this page updated with important announcements, news stories, and student shout-outs. Please check back often, and help us celebrate our students’ many achievements.
We encourage you to use the Infinite Campus parent portal to view attendance and to put money in your student’s lunch account. To view grades and assignments, you may use the Canvas Learning Management System (LMS). Please visit our district website to access both the Infinite Campus parent portal and Canvas Learning Management System.
If you would like to purchase a yearbook, you may order one in the Learning Commons for $10.00. Please see Mrs. Catlin or Mrs. Morrow for details.
During the month of December, the Powell Middle School Junior Building Leadership Team sponsored a photo booth fundraiser. The team was successful in raising money and gathering three large boxes full of canned goods for Loaves & Fishes. Good work!
It is important to encourage your child to seek out opportunities to show kindness. Suggest that your middle grader think of safe ways to assist people who are struggling or lonely. Maybe he’ll make cards or bookmarks for nursing home residents or have a virtual game night with younger cousins who miss seeing friends.
Do you want to raise the odds that your middle school student will actually follow your advice? Get his input. Instead of saying, “Setting your alarm ten minutes earlier will keep you from scrambling to get ready every morning,” try, “I’ve been running late in the mornings, too. What ideas do you think could help us?”
