Library this morning

The library is closed 1st & 2nd period this morning. Mrs. Gilchrist is at a meeting off campus.

The color printer is still not working. Please print only in B&W, and you can pick up your prints at morning recess. 

This is your last week for the February Reading Challenge. Reading logs are due before Friday at 3:20. If you are working on the challenge, you might consider checking in with Mrs. Gilchrist today to make sure you are on the right track.

Buzz Reminder: Your Words Matter

Good morning, Crocker,

It has come to our attention that some students have been using inappropriate and offensive language at school. Offensive language can hurt others, make people feel unwelcome, and create a negative environment for everyone.

The words we choose matter; they can bring us together or push us apart. Sometimes, we don't realize that the language we hear at home, in music, on TV, or online may be offensive to others. Swearing or using hurtful or vulgar words doesn't make someone look cool or smart—it just makes it harder to build respect and positive relationships.

Please be mindful of your words and use respectful, inclusive language. When you make good choices with your language, you set a positive example for your friends and classmates. If you are heard using inappropriate language, you will be referred to a staff member or administrator.

Let's work together to create a school environment where everyone feels respected and valued.

Thank you, Vikings,

Lisa Ayer Crocker Middle School Assistant Principal she/her
