Week 4 Edition of the Mayfield Messenger
Message from Dr. Frischkorn
Good Evening Mayfield Intermediate School students and families!
I want to highlight our phenomenal staff at Mayfield Intermediate School! Our school is so fortunate to be fully staffed with homeroom teachers, special education teachers, ESOL teachers, and encore teachers. Not only are we fully staffed, but we also have some of the best teachers in the area. Our students are fortunate to have teachers here at Mayfield Intermediate School who want to ensure each student succeeds.
Our entire staff has come together and formed a terrific team. This was highlighted this week when one of our instructional assistants said goodbye to our students and staff. Mr. Randle has worked at Mayfield for the past year. He and his family are relocating to Tampa Bay, and our team wanted to come together and celebrate Mr. Randle for the work he has done for our students and the support he has provided our staff.
We are currently in the process of hiring a couple of instructional assistants to join our team. We are looking for individuals committed to working collaboratively, ensuring students' needs are met, and enhancing our staff team at Mayfield. If you are interested, please take a moment to fill out an application on the Manassas City website.

6th Grade Boys Basketball Signup Begins Wednesday, September 7
Participation Competition Expectations
This program aims to introduce the basic fundamental skills to all participants and ensure that each participant is given equal time to play throughout the season regardless of individual skill level. Participants will be expected to respect sportsmanship and fair play.
Academic / Behavioral Expectations
Players must achieve passing grades in each subject to be eligible to play. Teachers and Administrators will review Grades. If failing any subject, the player will become temporarily ineligible until grades have improved. Players must attend for the entire day at School to participate in the games scheduled for that given day. A player will not be eligible to participate for a day of competition if he has been issued a School-Based or Bus Referral during the season. The issuance of more than one referral during the season will result in a full suspension from the program.
