Middle School News - Fri April 30th
Go Wildcats!
Roletto's message for the week
- We had an earthquake drill on and took a moment to review what is different with COVID protocols.
- Students did better this week with distancing as they moved around campus.
- Please continue to encourage your students to mask up while they hang up with friends off campus. It's helps all of us stay healthy.
Note about those who are bringing personal laptops/devices:
- You can get a district device so you don't have to bring your personal one. We aren't liable if your personal device is lost, stolen or damaged.
- Kids aren't using their limited time here with us to pull up games on their screens. We will monitor this and contact you if we need your support.
Picture day is coming up Tuesday and Wednesday. Please look for information in the Bridger Wildcat Word newsletter. Hybrid will be Tuesday and CDL will be Wednesday.
COVID testing consent forms:
Please make sure to ask your child for the consent form. We need one filled out for each child. It either gives or does not give consent for the child to take a rapid test here IF they are showing symptoms while at school.
Picture Day! May 4th for Hybrid students, May 5th for CDL students
Please make sure to read the ALL SCHOOL Wildcat Word with more info

Midterms are coming up
Midterm for Quarter 4
Teachers will be checking in with students this week to make sure the are turning in work properly. Midterm falls on May 6th and teachers are working on midterm reports by the 7th.
Your child will only get a report if they currently have a "D" or "NG" at this point of the quarter.
PLEASE remind your hybrid students to check in online before they come to class in the afternoon.
- We are going to remind kids that school is not just the 2 hours and 15 minutes they are with us. There is still work online.
- This means that Hybrid students will have online work (asynchronous) in the MORNING.
