Well, the time has come. As we close out our final week of the school year, I want to take a moment to reflect on all that our students have accomplished and how much theyโve grown. Whether it was mastering new math skills, improving their writing, navigating friendships, or learning how to bounce back after challengesโour Vikings have come a long way. Middle school is more than just academics; itโs about building character, resilience, and confidence. I hope every student walks away from this year with a better understanding of who they are, what theyโre capable of, and how they want to contribute to the world around them.
As we officially head into final exams, I want to remind all of our students that this is your chance to show how much youโve learned and how far youโve come. Youโve worked hard for over 175 school daysโnow itโs time to finish strong. Remember, success isnโt about being perfect; itโs about giving your best effort and not giving up, even when things feel challenging. Stay focused, get plenty of rest, ask for help when you need it, and believe in yourself. Parents, your encouragement and support at home during this time can make a big differenceโkeep cheering them on! Letโs push through these last few days with purpose and pride. Youโve got this, Vikings!
To our 8th grade Vikingsโcongratulations! We are so proud of you. Youโve left your mark here, and now itโs time to take all youโve learned and step boldly into high school and beyond. You are ready, just remember to make good decisions and surround yourself with good friends who lift you up, not bring you down. For our 7th graders, your journey is halfway done. Keep growing, stay curious, and come back ready to lead with kindness and purpose. To all of our parents and familiesโthank you. Your partnership, encouragement, and involvement have been vital to your childrenโs success this year. We are grateful for the trust you place in us and wish your families a safe, joyful, and restful summer. Once a Viking, always a Viking!
Let's make it a great last week of school, Vikings!! ๐
Take care,
Ms. Scott
