MAP Growth Testing
Dear Clark Middle School Families,
As we continue our journey through this academic year, I want to highlight the importance of the upcoming MAP Growth (Measures of Academic Progress) testing. These assessments provide us with invaluable real-time data that allows us to tailor instruction to meet the individual needs of each student. Our MAP testing will be Monday, September 9th and Tuesday, September 10th.
MAP testing is not just another test—it's a crucial tool that helps us understand where our students are academically at any given point in the school year. The data we gather from these tests guide our instructional strategies and interventions, ensuring that each student receives the support they need to thrive.
Moreover, MAP scores play a significant role in determining future class placements both here at Clark Middle School and as your student transitions to high school. The results offer a clear picture of your child's strengths and areas for growth, helping us to place them in classes that will challenge and support their academic journey.
We encourage you to talk to your child about the importance of doing their best on these assessments. With your support, we can continue to provide an educational experience that prepares them for future success.
Thank you for your partnership in your child's education. Go Falcons!!!

Attendance Guide for Students & Families
Daily attendance is one of the most powerful predictors of school success and on-time graduation. Our goal is to have every student at school on time every day. We are asking for your help and partnership in getting your student to school every day. Whether you need to maintain your student’s excellent attendance or improve future attendance, it will not only help your student be successful this school year, but will prepare your student to do well in the future at college and at work.
Our GOAL is for students to miss nine [9] or fewer day during the school year.
9 or / FEWER DAYS of ABSENCE
1st Quarter, No more than 2 days
2nd Quarter, No more than 2 days
3rd Quarter, No more than 2 days
4th Quarter, No more than 2 days
We understand students may miss some school; however, those times should be limited. Attendance is so important that each student’s attendance data is transferred to his/her permanent records at the end of the school year. Attendance is also recorded on all students’ transcripts. We hope the information below will help you understand our attendance policies and procedures.
Please feel welcome to contact your student’s school or one of the Administrators
#907-742-7763 if you have any questions related to attendance.
Valid Excuses for Absences
- Participation in a district or school approved activity or instructional program.
- Illness, health condition or medical appointment (including, but not limited to, medical counseling, dental or optometry) for the student or person for whom the student is legally responsible.
- Family emergency including, but not limited to, a death or illness in the family;
- Religious or cultural purpose including observance of a religious or cultural holiday or participation in religious or cultural instruction;
- Court or judicial proceeding;
- Absence directly related to the student’s homeless status;
- Absences related to deployment activities of a parent or legal guardian who is an active duty member.
Attendance - Excused Absence Procedures
We miss your student when they are absent, and we value their contributions to our school. We ask you to help ensure that your student attends school regularly. If your student is going to be absent, please contact our Attendance Secretary at #907-742-7763. The attendance voice mail system is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If prior notice is not possible, you may call, send an email, or written note upon the student’s return to school.
Notification shall include:
1. Name and spelling of the student.
2. Name and contact information of person providing the excuse and their relationship to the student.
3. Dates of absence
4. Reason for absence (see above for list of excusable absences)
Unexcused Absences
Any absences from school are unexcused unless it meets one of the criteria above for an excused absence.
- Parent notification – The school will notify the student’s parent or guardian in writing or by telephone whenever the student has failed to attend school.
- As a means of instilling values of responsibility and personal accountability, a student whose absence is not excused will experience the consequences of his/her absence including progressive discipline. A student’s grade may be affected if a graded activity or assignment occurs during the period of time when the student is absent.
- Three unexcused absences in a month – When a student has three unexcused absences in one month, our dedicated team of educators will communicate with parents to schedule a conference with the parent/guardian and student to identify the barriers and supports available to ensure regular attendance. We will then, develop a plan which may require an assessment to determine how to best meet the needs of the student and reduce absenteeism. As always, we appreciate the help and support from our families.
Early Dismissal
An early dismissal will be excused or unexcused using the same rules applied to absences.
Request for Planned Excused Absences
- Extended vacations during the school year or leaving school prior to the end of the school year are highly discouraged because students missing class lose essential instruction.
- Families must request prior approval for an excused planned absence. An “Pre-Arranged Absence Form” can be picked up at the Front Desk/Attendance Secretary to request prior approval. Your student will need to take the form to all teachers to indicate the current grade and share assignments. The form must be returned to the Front Desk/Attendance Security for signatures.

Exciting News for September 2024, Issue # 1
Language Arts 6: Mrs. M. Smith:
Welcome to Unit 1 of Springboard: Stories of Change
As we kick off the school year, our Language Arts classes have embarked on an exciting journey through Unit 1, titled "Stories of Change." This unit is designed to explore how characters, events, and settings in narratives undergo transformation, and how these changes reflect broader themes and ideas.
I am excited to see the thoughtful engagement and creativity your students are bringing to this unit. I encourage you to ask them about the stories they’re reading and how they relate to the concept of change. Supporting their exploration at home can enhance their understanding and make their learning experience even more meaningful.
Language Arts 6: Ms. Ridgley- Mrs. Lopez- This month students will be working on Unit 1, titled “Stories of Change.” This unit is designed to explore the elements of characterization, dialogue, setting, and the events or actions that lead to and follow a conflict. To demonstrate their understanding of the unit, students will have choices of assessment methods (Independent Learning, Collaborative Sharing, Digital Learning, or Teacher Lead- Instruction) to demonstrate their competency.
We look forward to learning and gaining understanding of the students through their stories. I encourage parent engagement to make their academics and their middle school experience more purposeful.
SCIENCE: Ms. Olsen: In science we have spent August working on our safe classroom environment. We have created a social contract for each class, explored the location of safety equipment in the classroom, and discussed how to be safe in a science laboratory situation. For September, we are moving forward learning about the different types of science equipment students will encounter in my class and future science classes. In addition, we will be beginning our metric system unit, using the science equipment to measure liquid volume, solid volume, length, and mass in the metric system.
SOCIAL STUDIES: Mr. Moran In this unit, students will understand the importance of geography in everyday life. They will understand the importance of the tools of geography, including maps, globes, and scales, and use them to understand earth and its patterns. They will learn what longitude and latitude are and how to use them, as well as the interrelationship with regional climate, vegetation, and land use.
SCIENCE: Ms. Mohammad: In the first quarter of Fall 2024 Integrated Science 6 and NCC ELL Integrated Science 6-8, we will analyze and explore the use of the Scientific Method in evaluating and investigating scientific, metric measurements of length, mass, volume, temperature, and laboratory safety protocols. By use of weekly observations, students engage in a long-term inquiry investigation of the changes that occur in a self-sustaining ecosystem model. Through the inquiry project, students enhance their proficiency in experimental design and the rigorous gathering of both qualitative and quantitative data. Concurrently with weekly observations of the changes taking place in the models, students acquire knowledge about ecology and the intricate interconnected connections between living and nonliving elements of ecosystems.
NCC/ELL i-Ready Math 6-8 will engage in practice and will conduct a comprehensive examination of metric measurements, including length, mass, volume, and temperature. Exploring and learning about Algebraic Expressions through examples.
Mathematics is a universal language that enables us to comprehend and describe the world in which we live. Algebra is a fundamental branch of mathematics, and algebraic expressions are a critical instrument in this field. This article will investigate the nature of algebraic expressions, their applications, and their practical applications.
What are algebraic expressions?
An algebraic expression is a composition of mathematical operations, variables, and integers, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Symbols and letters are used to depict them, with numbers being considered constants and letters representing variables, or values that can change. They adhere to all the arithmetic principles that we have previously acquired; however, certain numbers have been replaced with letters that may have varying values. Examples will facilitate comprehension: The sum of two numerals, The reciprocal of a number: 2x, the area of a rectangle is: Area of a circle formula, Temperature conversion. Algebraic expressions are employed to provide a general description of mathematical situations and relationships. Constants, variables, mathematical operations, and other elements comprise algebraic expressions.
I-Ready Math NCC/ELL Grades 6-8 Parent Connect:
https://readyclassroomcentral.com/download/?res=26533&view_pdf=1
Math: Ms. Cleopas: We will learn how to find the area of a parallelogram is a fundamental concept in geometry that combines both visualization and algebraic reasoning. The area of a parallelogram is calculated using the formula Area = base × height. This means that to find the area, you need to know the length of the base and the perpendicular distance (height) from the base to the opposite side. Understanding this concept helps in grasping more complex geometric principles and is also practical in various real-world applications, such as calculating space in design, architecture, and engineering.

Team Resilience
Team Resilience is really excited to welcome you to the 2024-2025 school year! As we move into September, our students will be actively engaged in a variety of activities. In Science, we will be doing experiments involving multiple chemical reactions, and we will be using various learning strategies such as station rotations. For Social Studies, we will continue the Historiography Unit; students will be practicing interviewing techniques and telling interesting stories. In Language Arts, students will study and apply the Hero’s Journey as they look at the challenges of heroism. We’ve enjoyed getting to know your children during the first few weeks of this year and look forward to getting to know them better in the coming month.
Team Honorable
Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! We've had a wonderful first few weeks with your students, getting to know them and helping them get to know one another. The first six weeks of school are so important in establishing a positive climate and expectations. We believe that by investing time at the beginning of the year by teaching social skills, and character values, and setting rules together, students will benefit all year long by knowing they are in a place that is welcoming and safe. You can support us by talking to your students about the rules their class created for themselves and how showing they are respectful, responsible, and safe are traits that help everyone do well in school and make friends.
This year will be my 11th year at Clark Middle School and my 12th overall working in public education. Our middle school staff in general is a highly experienced one with many years, more like decades, of service. Several of our teachers and aides are at the midpoint or later of their careers. What does that mean? If nothing else, it should give parents confidence that they are entrusting their child’s education to a team that has seen and done almost everything in education at one point or another. Mixed in among our veteran staff is a sprinkling of new and/or early career staff members, which is one of many things that keeps us evolving and growing as a staff and as a school. New energy and eagerness! For me personally, the excitement and anticipation of a new school year are just as strong today as it was when I first started. I hope that feeling of excitement and anticipation comes through in everything we do for your child.
Accommodation of the Month:
Reduced Workload In the Classroom:
- Give the student 50-80% of the problems you give everyone else by:
- Cross off some problems if you see they are struggling
Give 1-2 problems per concept rather than 3-4
- Ask the student to write 1-2 quality paragraphs rather than 3-4 paragraphs.
- As always check in with the student’s case manager to be sure that you are meeting their individual needs.
Biology/Anatomy:
This course focuses on the cellular and biochemical aspects of anatomy and physiology and begins the study of the different organ systems. The purpose of the course is to enable the student to acquire a better understanding of the human body and its anatomical parts course emphasizes laboratory dissection technique and comparison of feline and human anatomy.
Anatomy is the branch of biology that deals with the structure and organization of living things. Major areas of study included in anatomy are comparative anatomy, which compares structural organization between different animals, histology, the study of the microscopic structure of tissues, and, of course, human anatomy. Physiology is the study of how anatomical structures function in living organisms.
This Biology and Anatomy Course is designed to provide the student interested in a career in the health sciences or allied health technology services with an introduction to the fascinating study of how the human body is “put together” and how it works. Although there is a heavy load of new terminology to be learned, emphasis will be placed on the concepts of organization of structure and function in the human body. Alterations in this organization of structure and function caused by common disease states and how modern medical science deals with them will also be subjects for discussion.
Integrated Science 6, 7, & 8:
Science is everywhere. Science is life. Look around you – there is something scientific behind everything you see happening. As scholar scientists, we are going to explore the different ways science applies in our lives and the everyday world. We are going to question the earth and the universe around us - the way things work and why. Scientific understandings are constantly changing, and new scientific discoveries are happening all the time. Scientists have made incredible and life-changing inventions, but there are still millions of mysteries out there to be discovered by young scholar scientists like you. This year we will explore the following: Ecological Dynamics, Nature of Science, Science and Engineering Inquiry, Computer Science, Life Changes and Interactions, etc.
Team Fearless
Social Studies: Welcome to World Geography!!As we embark on this exciting journey, September will mark our starting point for learning how geographers study our world. We will also celebrate Constitution Day, which will serve as an introduction to this year's National History Day theme: "Rights and Responsibilities."
Learning Tools:
Chrome Books
Pencils
Glue Sticks
Science: Students are being introduced to lab safety, the scientific method with measurements and inquiry. Students will then apply that knowledge to the scientific process. Our first lab will be on the respiratory system.
ELA: In September students will be working on analyzing and then creating their own Personal Narratives. We will study the structure of this genre, as well as stories in general, by looking at some published examples. Then we will work on the drafting and revision process for writing their own narratives.
Team Valor
Science will be focusing on Life Science which includes creating biodiversity journals and exploring natural world.
Social Studies students will be studying the five themes of geography with a focus on Alaska, the United States and North America.
In English Language Arts students will be focusing on the elements of personal narrative and beginning the novel The Outsiders.
