Starting this week our schedule will be alternating between "A Week" and "B Week".
"A Week" is the schedule we have been practicing since the first week of school. It goes like this:
7:30-8:00 Advisory
8:05-8:55 Unified Arts 1
9:00-9:55 Core 1
10:00-10:55 Core 2
11:00-11:55 Core 3
12:00-12:30 Lunch
12:30-1:20 Unified Arts 2
1:25-1:35 D.E.A.R.
1:35-2:30 Core 4
On a "B Week" the core classes will go in reverse order. It will look like this:
7:30-8:00 Advisory
8:05-8:55 Unified Arts 1
9:00-9:55 Core 4
10:00-10:55 Core 3
11:00-11:55 Core 2
12:00-12:30 Lunch
12:30-1:20 Unified Arts 2
1:25-1:35 D.E.A.R.
1:35-2:30 Core 1
Teachers have noticed that most students are more focused and ready to learn in the mornings and can be more distracted in the afternoon. The alternating schedule gives students the opportunity to experience their core-subject classes in a different order to take advantage of our more productive mornings.

Dear Families
At the end of your student’s middle school experience, he or she will have the opportunity to participate in the 8th grade field trip to Boston. This field trip is three days and two nights and for many students it is the highlight of their middle school years. During this trip, students get to witness the culture of Boston, visit a few of Boston’s best museums, and they get to stay at Emerson College. This is a unique opportunity that every student should experience. In order to make this trip affordable for all families, we offer numerous fundraisers throughout the school year. Each student is given a field trip account. Students earn money for this account by fundraising. This money will be put towards the cost of the Boston trip and can also be used to fund other school based field trips as well. I have created these accounts so that students can earn their trip to Boston. This year the cost of the trip is $325, if your students participates in a couple of fundraisers each year, they will not have to fund raise all of the money during 8th grade. I cannot stress enough the importance of fundraising early so that your family is not stuck with a $325 bill at the end of 8th grade. Also, this account can be used for other field trips in the middle school.
I will be getting out a list of fundraisers that we will be doing shortly. I just wanted to alert you to this excellent opportunity to earn money that does not involve selling something.
Christine Vaughn has given us a fun opportunity for parents to earn money for their students fundraising account. If you help out for the 6.5 hours you will get $65 for you students account. Here is the information:
For groups of 10-20 adult volunteers before or on event day, we will donate $10 per volunteer hour back to the field trip fund. Our day begins at 6:30, and lasts about 6.5 hours. The work is easy, either monitoring the course for fair play, working merchandise tables, or registration. We also have some opportunities for set up and tear down.
Possible donations:
10 volunteers X 6.5 hours X $10 = $650 total donation
20 volunteers X 6.5 hours X $10 = $1300 total donation
If you are interested in running in the Zombie Run, you can get $10 off runner registration - and for each time the coupon is used, we would donate $5 back to the Field Trip fund. The code for registering is MMS.
To register for the run [ https://zombierun.webconnex.com/register ]https://zombierun.webconnex.com/register
To register to volunteer and help with the run contact Joe Smith, at jsmith3@mtsd-vt.org or 893-5529, by September 11th.
