Pella MS Student Ambassadors
Mrs. Rozendaal and Mrs. Ferguson are leading a group of 8th grade student ambassadors during our WIN time this year. The goal of the student ambassadors is to think of ideas that can help the overall student and staff climate within our building. Here are some of the activities they have accomplished thus far:
- Every student at Pella Middle School has/will receive a birthday card on their birthday with a ticket to receive a small birthday treat from the office.
- Mentoring students at Jefferson Intermediate
- Tattoos for Jefferson students on Homecoming Friday
- Helped organize and run concessions for Club Day on November 1
- Decorated/celebrated janitor's birthdays
- Decorated learning street whiteboards monthly
- Give new student tours
Student Council
Our Pella MS student council members have now been selected for the 23-24 school year. Under the supervision of Mrs. Schulz and President Abrianna Mass, these student leaders are planning several activities for the upcoming school year. Here are just a few of the items they have planned:
- Planning of homecoming activities (Dress up days and tailgate party)
- Attending the Pursuing Victory with Honor Summitt
- Meals from the Heartland
Service Learning - Planting Tulips
Cold Weather is Here!
Students Visit Pella Corp and Central College
On October 12, our entire 8th grade class was able to take a trip to two staples of the Pella community, Pella Corporation and Central College.
While at Pella Corporation, students were able to see what life is like and what it takes to work at a large manufacturing company. Students were given a tour of the factory floor and were able to ask questions about working at Pella Corp. Thank you to Amber Kelly at Pella Corp for helping make this a successful day.
Students then went on to visit Central College. Students were given a tour of the campus, visited several classrooms, and got to eat at Central Market. We thank Kelly Kowzan and the rest of the admissions team at Central for all their work for this day.
