Sultan Middle School Families,

Thank you for participating in Parent/Teacher Conferences last week. It was great to connect with parents and families! With 2nd Quarter starting this week, we ask that parents please set up a PowerSchool Account to stay up to date on your students grades and attendance. Call us at 360-793-9850 to get your password reset.

There is no school on Monday in honor of Veterans Day. Thank you to the men and women who have served. We will be having a Veterans Day Assembly on Tuesday.

Venture Out is excited to announce our next adventure- skiing and snowboarding at Stevens Pass! We’re opening this opportunity to both high school and middle school students, encouraging them to explore the mountain that’s right in their backyard.

The program starts on January 10th and will run every Friday for 6 weeks, departing right after school at 1:07 PM and returning around 6:00 PM. Cost is $180 and includes equipment, ski bus, and lessons (if interested). Scholarships are available! Students need to be passing all classes in order to participate. Don't let cost be a reason your student doesn't join!

Unexcused tardies will result in the following consequences:

• At 5th tardy – Lunch held in the Student Success Center to review expectations.

• At 8th tardy –Two lunches held in the Student Success Center to review expectations.

• At 11th tardy – Four lunches held in the Student Success Center to review expectations and a parent meeting scheduled.

• At 14th tardy --Alternative passing schedule put in place to help facilitate arriving to class on time. This will be in place for the remainder of the quarter.
