Principal Update
MMS Families,
The last day of our first quarter is fast approaching! Fall has entered beautifully and our classes continue to enjoy wonderful weather outside.
October is Safety Awareness Month. We will be collaborating with our local Madeira Police and Fire Departments on our October safety drill, similar to the drill last week held at MHS.
Our parent/teacher conferences start next week, please use the link below to sign-up or reach out to your student's teachers for questions that you may have. We would love to welcome our families into the building for conference nights, but understand families may be running in multiple directions and virtual conferences through GoogleMeet may be the best option for some.
Spirit Week has been great! We look forward to a full LIGHT Day of connecting across grade levels tomorrow.
Take care,
Nicole Huelsman
Principal, MMS

Parent/Teacher Conferences
Parent/Teacher Conferences will begin Wednesday October 12th. Once again this year we will be using the on-line conference scheduling PTCFast.com and want to make certain you know how to access the web-site so you may sign up for conferences.
Thursday, October 12th from 3:30 to 7:30 PM
Wednesday, October 27th from 3:30 to 7:30 PM
Wednesday, November 2nd from 3:30 to 7:30 PM
The web access you need to visit is:
http://ptcfast.com/schools/Madeira_Middle_School
There is an underscore ( _ ) after Madeira and Middle in the web access.
Once you are at the site, you will be able to register for conferences. Parents of students grade 5-7, need to click on your child’s Language Arts Teacher to schedule a conference. If your child is in the “shared” language arts class (cores 5/6), then you need to schedule your conference at the same time with both L.A. teachers. Grade 8, click on the teacher(s) you would like to meet with directly.
Please do not hesitate to call 561-5555 if you have any questions.
