What an amazing week we’ve had on trips! I feel certain that we will return some very tired and story-filled middle schoolers to you this afternoon after all of their adventures to Mt. St. Helens, Camp Westwind, and BB Camp. These trips are such an integral part of our Middle School experience, as all of our students pushed their boundaries, built new connections, and learned new skills. These three days away from the classroom and campus always feel like three months’ worth of relationship building. We all return to our classrooms with stronger connections to individuals and to the larger community of the Middle School.
On Homecoming Day, we invite students to wear spirit wear and bring in a box or two of pasta to launch our school-wide food drive!

Families, consider picking up an OES Soccer Scarf to cheer on our teams from the sidelines and show your Aardvark pride.
Thank you to all the families who joined us last night for Back to School Night. It was wonderful to see so many of you connecting with our teachers and with each other. I heard a lot of “I wish I could go to Middle School here!” remarks. Please check on the Parent Portal in the Division Links, Middle School, and then MS Parent Partnership Presentations to find slideshows that teachers shared last night at Back to School Night in case you weren’t able to make it.
