LMTC Books Due May 29

Students, your LMTC materials (books, magazines, audiobooks), except textbooks, are due on Tuesday, May 29.  An exception would be 7th graders who need one book for a reading log project - you may keep that book until about June 1.

Hang on to your current textbooks until they are collected by your teachers in the classroom. If you have textbooks you should have already returned, please do so right away.

8th graders are reminded that any middle school LMTC obligations follow your Destiny account to the high school, where you will not be permitted to check out items until your middle school items are returned or paid for.

Thank you!

Write for the Trib!

The Waunakee Tribune has offered adolescent writers here at Waunakee Community Middle School the opportunity to develop our own weekly column in the newspaper. Staff members are encouraged to nominate students who will then write brief articles about learning opportunities here at our school (lessons, projects, guest speakers, events, concerts, etc). Read more about this opportunity on the Waunakee Tribune Writers page.

Update: Jack Schwartz's article was published on May 17, an article by Tatiana Brown & Sarah Schiltz was published on May 10, & Danielle Ninedorf's article was published on May 3!

8th Grade Recognition June 8th

Dear Parents/Guardians of Eighth Grade Students,

The Middle School staff invites you to join them in recognizing all 8th graders as they bring their middle school experience to a close.  A recognition program is scheduled for Friday, June 8th beginning at 9:00 a.m. at the High School Field House. The ceremony will include a musical selection, special recognition, and presentation of completion certificates to the 8th grade students. 

As you join us for this special occasion, you may enter through the east doors of the High School, (the doors facing South Street) or the front doors (on Community Drive).  Families attending the program may park at the High School, Middle School or on a street near the school where parking is allowed.  Please do not park in numbered spots.  Arriving early to secure "good" seats is also advised. 

Students should dress appropriately for the event.  Formal "gowns" or "tuxedos" are discouraged.  Girls may wear dresses with straps at the ceremony, but we encourage them to wear an appropriate wrap with their dresses.  Please also note that we do not allow balloons in the gym during the ceremony as they may present issues for allergy sufferers or disrupt viewing.

Please mark your calendar for Friday, June 8th at 9:00 a.m.  The students, staff and parent volunteers encourage all families to participate in this wonderful celebration of passage for our 8th graders.
