Congratulations to National Junior Honor Society

We would like to congratulate the 26 newest members of the Norwich Middle School National Junior Honor Society. We are very proud of our students achieving this outstanding recognition.

Students were inducted into the NJHS in a ceremony on May 15, 2024!!

Memorial Day Weekend Extended

Due to unused snow days, the Memorial Day weekend has been extended. There will be no school on Friday, May 24, Monday, May 27, and Tuesday, May 28.

We hope everyone has a great extended weekend, and we remember why we have the days off, in honor of those who have given all for us. Please take any opportunity to honor those who have given everything for our freedoms.

Attendance Matters

May and June are like the final bosses of the school year for middle school students. Just when you think you've made it through all the levels, these months sneak up on you with their last-minute assignments, final exams, and projects. Showing up to school and being present in class is crucial during this time because students do not want to miss a thing. It’s not much longer until the year has ended and summer will be upon us. We want to make the most of our time together over the next few weeks. Show up every day!

Character Strong Corner

Each Family CharacterDare offers families the opportunity to engage in challenges designed to increase connection and conversation at home. These CharacterDare challenges also provide students with more opportunities to practice habits discussed in class.
