Students' Mental Health
In our Life class, we offer an opportunity for our students to break from the academic rigors of in-class, at home learning and focus on our school's climate and culture. And, during the three-week window between Thanksgiving Break and Winter Break, we will be presenting information about teen suicide and mental health to or students in their SPECIALS class.
Mrs. Gundlach (our school's counselor) and Ms. Tracy (Our District's site-based Social Worker) will be working alongside Mr. Grochowsky, Ms. Rossos, and Ms. Hubbard to implement these lessons.
Please visit this website (ParenTeen Connect) to learn more about how to support your student's independence, responsibility, screen time, and health by communicating well with our teens.
Parent-Teacher Conferences: Virtual, Digital on November 23 and 24
This year our conferences at Estacada Middle School are virtual, digital.
You will need to use the links below to access your 10-minute appointment. Please use your student's Chromebook for access. And, please wait patiently for our teachers to allow you access. Go Tigers!
Excused Absences
Regardless of their excused absence, your student will continue to be required to submit any work that was missed at the soonest possible opportunity.
We are flexible and here to support you, but we also need to ensure that your student is providing us with evidence of their progress to meet our essential learning standards.
Unexcused Absences
1.Participate meaningfully in class activities (Fully complete school work, speak up in Zoom sessions, ask questions of their teachers on Zoom and/or in Canvas and finish and submit responses to assignments and/or surveys)
2.Communicate with their teacher or another staff member for each period they attend by responding to their teacher's prompts, sending a private message via Canvas or email about the task or assignment if they are not participating live. This communication is not simply saying, "I'm here." It must show a greater level of engagement to count toward being present that day.
If your student has difficulty accessing videos, Zoom meetings or assignments, please have them email their teacher as soon as possible to receive suggestions for how to resolve the issue, so they can be marked present for that class.
See Teacher contact information below.
