Mid Year Update
As we end the second marking period, I would like to take this opportunity to check in with all of our parents and guardians. I continue to meet individually with the students each month as well as meeting as a group for a lunch meeting. For 8th grade students, our upcoming individual meetings will focus on scheduling for 9th grade. Our monthly school store has been quite a success. The 7th and 8th grade students seem to enjoy ordering and selling items during lunch time once a month.
Palmyra Middle School will be participating in the Math League competition this year. 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students were invited to sign up in their math classes. If your child would like to participate, but hasn't signed up, please have them see me or their math teacher as soon as possible.

End of 2nd Quarter
Parents & Guardians -
Can you believe the end of the 2nd quarter is almost here! This year is going very quickly and I continue to enjoy working with your students.
I met with all 7th and 8th grade gifted students individually at the beginning of the month. During this time we reviewed goals set at the beginning of the year. We discussed their progress on meeting those goals and revised as needed. For 8th grade students, we also talked about scheduling for 9th grade.
Our lunch meeting was held on Monday, January 10th. Students had the opportunity to interact with each other and talk about our school store and the upcoming Scholastic Book Fair. The book fair will be held during the week of February 14th in the Middle School library. Students will have the opportunity to work a shift during that week, pending team teacher approval.
School store continues to be successful! Last Friday (January 14th) was our most recent adventure. With winter and Valentine's Day themed merchandise having just arrived, students were very excited to see some new items available. Our next school store will be held on Friday, February 4th.
As the second quarter comes to a close, please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have. Ms. Creekmore, Mr. Makuch, and I continue to update the gifted/enrichment Moodle page as information is given to us. I appreciate all of your help and support at home.
