Parent Feedback Survey
Parents, please take a moment to fill out the Stilwell Fall Parent Survey. The survey provides you a chance to give input on some of the major topics and events that happen at Stilwell Junior High. You will also have an opportunity to bring any concerns forward for our attention. Thank you for the parents that have already filled it out. Here is the link- Survey
PTO Meeting
We had our December, 6, 2022 PTO meeting this past week. We were not able to record the first one in October but we will be able to record the rest of the meetings this year. We know that 12:30pm is not ideal and will look to have one of the next meetings in the evening, so more families can engage. Next meetings are January 10, 2023 which at that meeting we will review some of the available positions for our PTO parents to get involved with at Stilwell.

Student Supplies:
It's a good time to check on your student's supplies and if they need to be replenished. They make great stocking stuffers. One item we never have enough of is wired headphones to use with their Chromebooks.
