We are thankful for a wonderful opening week at Shore. I am extremely proud of the way our students have started the school year in a positive manner. The hallways and classrooms are filled with smiles, and an eagerness to learn. Three items we have been and will continue to stress to our students are the concepts of being safe, respectful, and responsible. This includes applying these to oneself, classmates, and staff. Displaying these characteristics through one’s words and actions are what makes being a Shore Cardinal so special. Along with other schools in the district, we have stressed the importance to “Just Be Kind” each day.
Per information included in my opening letter, I want to remind families on a couple procedures at Shore. These were shared with students at our class meetings this week. Students should report to the clinic if they are not feeling well. Our nurse will then contact the appropriate person to get them picked up if need be. It would not be appropriate for students to call or text their parent/guardian from the bathroom. We also kindly ask families to not show up unannounced to pick up your child in this case. Please remind your child to go to the clinic. This ensures they are ready to go when you arrive, as we know your time is valuable. For the safety of our students, showing up unannounced to meet with administration over any matter is also not available. Please call the main office to setup a meeting to ensure our availability. These can be scheduled many times the same day. We thank you advance for your help in upholding these procedures.
All middle school students that attend varsity football games this fall MUST be accompanied by an adult chaperone. As fans arrive at the gate, elementary and middle school students will have to be with an adult to enter the facility. We ask that parents and adult chaperones monitor their children at the game. We appreciate your cooperation with us as we uphold our Board of Education policy.
Picture day September 2 at Shore. All students will have their photo taken and pictures can be ordered online using the link HERE. The code for Shore Middle School is… EVT37QK8R. Picture retake day is scheduled for October 15.
6th graders will be attending camp September 8 - 10 at Camp Fitch YMCA. The deadline to sign up for camp is, August 27 at 4:00 PM. You sign up for camp by completing online forms, and paying the $160 fee through the parent portal. Families that qualify for free/reduced lunch can have this fee waived with proper paperwork. Thank you to all the families that have already submitted these items. Students not attending camp will be assigned an alternate schedule for three days at Shore. If your child does not want to attend, please email Mrs Hoose at [email protected].
We are in the early stages of planning the spring 8th grade trip to Washington DC. The trip will take place Monday, May 4 - Wednesday, May 6. Our informational parent meeting is scheduled for Monday, October 6 at the Fine Arts Center. The meeting will begin at 7:00 PM.
