Glover Core Values
Our students have continued to receive Core Values awards from their teachers throughout the month. Last week, we ran out of space for awards in the hallway space that we were using and had to find a new space for more awards. What a wonderful problem to have!
GLOVER – Growth Mindset, Leadership, Optimism, Virtuous, Excellence and Resilience
Upcoming State Testing
Last year, Glover Middle School earned breakthrough results on state testing with regard to student growth when compared to the previous year. The performance of students was a testament to all of the hard work that they put in over the course of the school year. Glover Middle School is a place where students work hard, do their best and always represent themselves well.
As spring arrives, we are preparing for this year’s state testing, which will begin on Wednesday, May 9th. We are proud of the work that our community has done this year and are looking forward to our students being able to show their growth once again. A full testing schedule will be provided on our website in April so that you can help your student prepare.Student Academic Supports
FAST (Falcon Academic Support Team) is offered Tuesday-Thursday each week from 3:35-4:35. During FAST students can receive help from Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, and Science. A bus runs to transport FAST students home at 4:45. Students must have a permission slip from a parent to attend FAST and a bus pass, from the FAST teacher, to ride the bus home at 4:45. If you would like to sign your student up for FAST please either call the office or ask your student to bring home a permission slip.
