We are the MIDDLE
WMS Demons
From the Office of Mrs. Kennedy
The 2023-2024 school year is our 3rd year of the WMS and DCC Mentor Program partnership! We are so excited to continue this program with DCC. Last week, the program was presented to DCC students, so we are almost ready to roll.
Here are the details:
- If you DO NOT want your child to participate in the WMS and DCC Mentor Program, email me at kennedyk@glendiveschools.org BEFORE September 1st.
- Students are matched with DCC Mentors. NOT ALL students will get a mentor. We only have so many DCC students who are available to be mentors.
- Most DCC Mentors will visit WMS during the WMS students' lunch/recess time.
- Some DCC Mentors will visit on Wednesday after school or on Fridays. If this is one of the times your students' mentor is available, I will reach out to you to see if this time works for your family as transportation will be needed to/from school, depending on the time.
When the DCC Mentors begin to visit WMS, it is always an exciting time! Go Bucs!
In partnership,
Katy Kennedy

What are Habits of Work?
At WMS, meeting expectations in the area of respect looks like:
- I show respect to myself, peers, and adults. - I take care of building and classroom materials. - I communicate politely and kindly.
At WMS, meeting expectations in the area of accountability for learning looks like:
- I use my resources to problem solve. - I advocate for myself. - I use class time wisely. - I begin tasks independently.
At WMS, meeting expectations in the area of preparation and organization looks like:
- I am organized. - I complete and turn in work on time. - I bring the necessary materials to class
Teachers will include the assessment of these three areas and the grading of student learning. The grading scale for Work Habits is:
- 3 Meets Expectations
- 2 Partially Meets Expectations
- 1 Does Not Meet Expectations
All teachers will use the same rubric to assess students in Habits of Work. The frequency of assessment during the grading period will be consistent.
If you have questions regarding the scoring of your student's academic or work habits in Infinite Campus, don't hesitate to contact your student's teacher.
