What a Wonderful Week here at Silver Spring!
Dear Parents and Guardians of 5th Graders,
It is hard to believe but the end of the school year is almost here, and it is time to start preparing your fifth grade student for the move to the middle school. Good Hope Middle School and Eagle View Middle School will host their parent information night on Wednesday, April 25 at 7pm in their auditoriums to provide you with an opportunity to learn about the middle schools and ask questions to better prepare your elementary student for the transition to the secondary level.
During this event, parents will learn about the middle school schedule, grading information, general policies and procedures, tips for transition, and other important information about middle school life. There will also be an opportunity for parents to ask questions. The evening concludes with a self-guided tour of the building, with the assistance of some of our student leaders. While we certainly wouldn't turn away any students, this presentation is intended primarily for parents/guardians. Students will have several other opportunities to visit the middle school and get lots of information about "moving to the middle."
We hope to see you there. Both schools will also post information on their websites for families who are unable to attend.
