The Pizitz Post
For Students, Parents & Families - March 14, 2022
Determination
Parents, our teachers and staff are regularly finding opportunities to celebrate the core values we see in our kids. Don't be surprised if you receive an email from the school in the coming weeks to celebrate the ways we see students displaying core values at school.
Keep Your Information Current
If you have moved, we will need all of the usual residency verification documents. That includes:
- a copy of your new lease or deed
- a recent Alabama Power bill
- one additional bill showing your name and new address
Likewise, if your phone number or email has changed, please contact us to update that information as well.
It is vital that we have updated information in case of emergency. Contact Mary Watson, our school registrar with updates (watsonme@vestavia.k12.al.us).
Athletic Update
If your child is planning to play football next year, we will host a football meeting for incoming 7th, 8th, and 9th graders. This will be the opportunity to share the summer schedule. Coach Evans will be here from VHHS to speak to all of our parents, and will spend additional time with the incoming 9th graders. The meeting will be held in the upper gym on Tuesday, March 22 at 5:30.
Math Team Updates
A couple of weeks ago some of our math team students competed in the Alabama Statewide High School Math Contest in the Geometry Division. PIZITZ MIDDLE SCHOOL earned FIRST PLACE at a HIGH SCHOOL competition. Incredible job, students!
In addition, we want to celebrate the following students for qualifying for state in the Math Counts competition to be held later in March:
Tina Gao (2nd Place)
Eric Wang (3rd Place)
Mina Hu (5th Place)
Grace Ding (7th place)
Raymond Liu (8th place)
Congratulations, Majorettes!
Congratulations, ladies, on an awesome season!
