News from the Middle School

Week of Feb. 5

Dear All,

I hope you are well. The sun came out today at recess, and we wanted to play outside all afternoon. It's been a terrific week and we loved ending it with a spirit dress down/ scavenger hunt/ 100 days of school day. 


Here are a few scenes from the week:

6th Grade Cell Cycle Oreos with Mrs. Kerslake!

Griffin basketball on the road!

A little three-point challenge action after the chorus sang at the USC Upstate game! (She made it by the way!)

These fine musicians made Region Band and Clara Matz made All State! This is all very impressive, by the way...like VERY impressive.

Prosperity crepe flip challenge in French class!
