Circle Middle School pick up information posted on News and Facebook.

Hey, T-Birds!!! Just a personal message from the heart of Mrs. Young and Mr. Sherwood. We want you to know several things moving forward with our new normal: Learning will continue!!! Our start day for our new learning structure is March 30th. I know you are all very excited about this. Teachers are being asked to work next week on creating lessons for you. More information will be shared with you about what these look like and the time frame for learning per day. Each of you are already on Google Classroom- so that will be our primary communication platform for posting assignments. GOOD NEWS is no State Assessments :) (I know you have to be excited about that.) In all reality- YOU are going to be better at some of the technology than your teachers… YEP, I really said that. You are digital learners and for some of you, this is going to be a piece of cake. Your teachers… well, that’s another story. They have been challenged and will be absolutely ready (in a week!!). Your advisement teacher will be your primary point of contact. They will be following up with you on a daily basis making sure you are doing ok. If you need anything, they will be your go-to. They might set up video meetings for the group, or some type of group communication. EMAIL IS GOING TO BE VERY IMPORTANT!!! You will need to check often. We are currently working to provide meals to all students in USD 375 with pick up locations at Oil Hill, Towanda Primary, Circle Middle, and Greenwich Elementary. Meals will begin on Wednesday, March 25 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. Meals will be available Monday through Friday. As you are probably aware, all school-related activities are canceled. This includes all track, any field trips, and 8th-grade promotion. If you have a uniform for track, Mr. Sherwood will be in contact with parents/you about how to return these to the school. 8th grade: we are still going to celebrate your moving onto CHS! (just not in person) Watch for this information from your teachers. Speaking of returning items- we know you have items at the school that you need to pick up. We will be creating a strategic manner in which you will be allowed to come and get these. Look for communication next week with this information. Trust me- we DO NOT want your PE uniforms!!! YOU are our PRIORITY!!! You are surrounded by the most amazing teachers, support staff and community. We know that all of this does not make sense, but it is necessary. If you need to talk, if you need to vent, if you need someone just to listen to you we are here. Mrs. Cross, Mrs. Schoen, Miss. McGuire, Mrs. Young, Mr. Sherwood, and Officer Murphy are all listening. Our emails are linked on the website. Throughout this time of learning, Mrs. Young and Mr. Sherwood will be asking you to do some fun things as well as the work. Look for periodic challenges. These will be fun, silly and we might even mail you a T-Bird packet for participating. HINT: Who can find the most items that are blue…. (Just an example… lol). What better way to keep yourself challenged with the lessons you have learned in Advisement classes! Some of the challenges that we put out there for you to participate in might just be influenced by Rachel’s Challenges. So for now, I encourage each of you to look at these 5 very applicable themes and discover for yourself how they can become part of your daily life. Look for the BEST in Others Dream BIG Choose POSITIVE Influences Speak with KINDNESS Start your own CHAIN REACTION. We are looking forward to when we can see you all again, high five you and spend time. WE miss you! Until then, know we care about each of you and are ready to help. We will all work together to #thrivein375 https://www.dropbox.com/s/krrd7r5ji6wa3vl/Rooted_In_Love_V4.mp4?dl=0 Mrs. Young and Mr. Sherwood
