CARNIVAL
Between April 30th and May 3, Parkland Middle School took part in a daily carnival during Silent reading. There were many events, food, games of chance, and silly fun to be had by all. In total, the students were able to raise $2,500 for our Haitian fundraiser. Pictured below is several of the targets of the sponge toss venue. Will is currently the intended target.
OFFICE NEWS
This time of year is always a very busy time. It is that time when we ramp up our efforts to finish off the school year, encourage students to continue to put in their best efforts, and plan for next year.
The planning for the 2013/2014 school year has actually been ongoing since late February! We look at the number of students that will be joining us at each grade level and from that, establish budgets, staffing, supply lists and start to engineer all of our classroom compositions. Something that is different this year is the fact that we are expecting a significant increase in the number of students attending Parkland Middle School. As a result, the Board of Trustees is planning on taking a look at school boundaries, both for the middle and elementary schools in Cranbrook. Parkland will be hosting a parent information meeting with Superintendent Miller and Trustee Besanger on May 29th at 7:00.
Please contact Mr. Holt in the office for more information.
