PINE HOLLOW MIDDLE SCHOOL
Thursday, January 17, 2019
Dear Parents,
Yesterday we hosted our 2nd Semester Welcome Back Rallies by grade level. Similar to our Welcome Back rallies in September, these rallies were focused on uniting students, celebrating our school, and reviewing and reminding students about our rules and expectations.
Our leadership students led the classes in fun games and activities, our counselors spoke about strategies for success and how students can meet with them to discuss academic or social-emotional issues, and our administration discussed the power of positivity and how our school will thrive if our students are supportive of each other. We also reminded students about various expectations, promoted a number of programs available to them, and enjoyed performances from our school band.
The rallies were a blast, and helped set the stage for a great 2nd semester. If you get a moment this weekend, please ask your child about the rally they attended and help us create a stronger culture by reiterating how they can be a positive force on campus among their peers. Enjoy the pictures below and please let me know if you have any questions. Best,
Ben Campopiano
Principal, Pine Hollow Middle School
