The Middle School Minute

New Year – New Approach for Middle School Academics

The mid-school year break can provide a natural “reboot” for the second half of the school year. This can be a great time to start the second semester with great intentions by way of resolutions.

1. Get organized. Recommend that your scholar improve upon the use of their Agendas and widen its scope of use as a calendar.
2. Set a schedule. Reestablish practices for learning at home (studying and homework).
3. Use time wisely. Prioritize tasks so that it is understood which tasks are most important.
4. Set short-term and long-term goals: Is there a grade that they would like to see improve? Help to set clear ways to achieve their goals and schedule check-ins to ensure compliance with the choices that will help them reach their goals.

We are excited for our 8th annual Trivium "Run the Virtues" race is coming Saturday, February 24! This yearly event sponsored by our PSOs is a great way to build community. There are options for a 5K race or 1-mile fun run/ walk. Additionally, if you are interested in a business sponsorship of this event, please reach out to our event coordinator at runthevirtues@gmail.com.
