Eighth Grade Field Trip
It’s with great excitement that we announce an upcoming team-building opportunity for the Class of 2026! As many of you know, the middle school team worked diligently last spring to design fall class connection trips for each grade level in anticipation of our return to in-person learning. The COVID landscape and bus driver shortage presented obstacles during the first three months of school, but we have been fortunate enough to recently secure busing services that have allowed us to reschedule this previously postponed event. We have scheduled the 8th grade class field trip for Monday, November 1st, 2021. While we typically give more advance notice for these community events, our flexibility in scheduling this fall was necessary to secure available facility and transportation dates. As our 8th graders just took the PSAT this week, we are excited to celebrate their hard work with this upcoming opportunity to further connect with each other and continue to build camaraderie as a graduating class.

PSAT Testing Information
8th graders will take the PSAT 8/9 this Wednesday, October 13th. Students should arrive no later than 7:45 AM and report directly to their testing room in the north (high school) building. Room assignments are posted in the halls of the middle school, and in the north building lobby. Students should bring: a water bottle, a snack to be eaten during the break, and a calculator, if they have one. Students should not bring: any technology, including a phone or smart watch. If these cannot be left at home, students will need to power them off and turn them into the test proctor for the duration of the test. Students cannot read or work on homework after their test so should not plan to bring those items. Students will be done testing and dismissed for the day by 12:00 PM, except for those testing with extended time who will dismiss around 1:00 PM. Parents/guardians with students testing longer should have already received an email with additional information. If you have any questions, please reach out to Tracy Durland. 6th and 7th graders will not take the PSAT and will instead participate in grade level walking field trips. All students will be dismissed at 12:00 PM. More information can be obtained from Grade Level Leaders.
