7th Grade Newsletter
Hello Parents! We are in the final stretch of the school year. I'm glad that so many of you were able to make it to the student led conferences in April. The 7th graders worked very hard creating and editing their slides. They were able to incorporate many colorful pictures too. I hope all of you enjoyed the conferences and were able to find out some new exciting things about your child.
The NFMS Talent Show is coming up soon. This show is open to 6th-8th graders. We have many talented students at the middle school. Every year we have a great talent show that includes individual and group performances.
When 7th graders are done with a classwork or homework assignment, they are continuing to work on editing assignments. With 8th grade approaching quickly, students are realizing it is important to check assignments to make sure that they have completed them, included a header, answered the question, read it over, and have spell-checked and put their name and date on the assignment.
Are you looking to keep your child busy, challenged, and interested over the summer? The Summer Enrichment Camp offers many activities and is open to all middle school students. This camp is offered for four weeks from July 9th-August 2nd. Registration information is available online and in the main office. Don’t forget to have your child complete summer work for ELA and math so he/she is ready for the first day of school and won’t experience a summer slide in skills.
As the 7th graders are getting ready for summer, don’t forget to have them return their books at the end of June. They will need their lock, laptop, and computer bag for 8th grade. If you have any new phone numbers, addresses, or pick up information, please let Donna Fejes (district registrar) in the main office know. She can also help you if your Infinite Campus parent portal username and/or password aren’t working. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please don’t hesitate to contact me at (203) 312-5892.
Important Upcoming Dates:
5/3-Unified Theater Presentation (6th grade only)
