Intermediate School Choir Car Wash and Cookout
The Intermediate School choir program is hosting a cook out and free will donation car wash at the Hartland Piggly Wiggly on Saturday, September 15 from 9:00 until 6:00. All proceeds from the fundraiser go to supporting the Merton Intermediate choir program. Stop by for a car wash and burger, and don't forget to tell your family and friends, too!
Staff learning and connecting this week
Below are just a few pictures from our week of learning. Breakfast was served and we did a breakout session to develop our teams of teachers. We also learned about our new math programs and spent time getting our classrooms together and planning our first days with the students. We'll be learning more together again next week!

A video with an important message
If you have a moment, please share this with your children. The message is powerful. Social media is a good thing, but it can be used for bad things, too. Often, our children are online when we aren't there to supervise or protect them. This message is a reminder for us all about our online presence.

A mother's reminder to her middle school child
I have to share this with you. It's an activity I have done in our Wednesday assemblies every couple of years. It might be something for you to consider doing with your child before school starts, and it will only cost you one tube of toothpaste.
