Today marked the start of the second semester, which is a great day to focus on fresh starts. Today is a great day to remind our students about being prompt, prepared, polite, and productive. By following these simple expectations, your student will have a successful second semester. With PM3 and EOCs around the corner, it is imperative that students are locked in and engaged in every assignment and lesson that is prepared by their amazing teachers. I encourage that parents stay on top of students' grades through the parent portal and also remind students of behavioral expectation every day. The letter grade of a "B" is in reach; it is right there waiting for us to grab. I know that working together, if students stay focused, we can definitely obtain that goal. If we become a "B" middle school, that will be transformational for our Poinciana Community. As always, thank you for your continued trust in me and my team to provide your student with the best educational experience possible!
