Dear Camptonville Middle School
Families,
I hope you
have enjoyed your summer and had plenty of time to sleep in and play in the sun!
This next
school year, starting August 19th, I have high expectations for student
achievement, and I wanted to make sure students come prepared with everything
they need to think deep, learn a lot and stay organized. We will be using and
providing student planners this year, so there is no need to purchase agendas
or calendars. Please make sure your student has:
Necessary
____A backpack or book bag
____Plenty of sharpened pencils or mechanical pencils with
extra lead
____One sturdy binder for back and forth from school to
home, 1.5"-2" based on your preference
____Binder paper (college ruled or wide ruled is your choice)
– This year, we will not be providing lined paper, students need to bring it
daily.
____One pack of binder dividers – six is preferable but five
is fine.
____One designated homework folder, three whole punched,
that can be kept in binder.
____A writing journal – as long as the paper is lined, I
don’t care about the style. Students are welcome to decorate it beforehand.
____Three composition books: one each for reading, math and
science, different colors are preferable.
____A calculator – it doesn't need to be fancy but should
have the capability to do square roots.
____Pack of 3" x 5" index cards with one blank
side and one lined side
____Red ballpoint pens
____One glue stick
Optional
Colored pencils and/or markers
Small pencil sharpener
Extra erasers
Pencil pouch/Pencil box
Headphones compatible with iPad
Please let
me know in advance of the first day of school, if you are unable to acquire
these items. I can be reached via email at ms.maggieorion@gmail.com or at
Camptonville School – feel free to leave a message.
Parents and
caregivers, I look forward to welcoming you at back-to-school night to outline
what we'll be exploring this year as well as answer any questions you might
have about classroom procedures, academic standards, homework expectations, and
how to best support your student.
In addition
to sending newsletters home, I will be posting all correspondence on our class
blog throughout the year. I will also showcase exemplary student work and class
activities. Please check it out at cougarvilleclass.blogspot.com, and consider
following posts by signing up on the left hand side of the home screen.
Also, be
reminded that incoming 7th graders need
proof of TDAP immunization for enrollment, so consider scheduling a
doctor's appointment as soon as possible.
Finally,
I'll sign off by thanking you in advance for your support. I believe family
involvement is integral to student success and I am excited for this next year
of teaching and learning.
Thank you,
Maggie Orion
