Are you going to have a Middle Schooler next year? If so, this event would be a great time to come out and visit the schools, ask questions about programs and what each school has to offer.
I know it’s hard to believe your baby is in Middle School...I had one who started this year and thankfully is going great for her. They say this is the hardest time for them and I am a big supporter of getting involved in the school and activities. In middle school, they want the kids to be independent and advocate for themselves but “mama bears” are always going to be around and watching their every move even from a distance. I know how hard it is wanting to be there as much as we would like to. I work full time, a mother of 3 and life comes up on us very quickly, but opportunities like these, show our kids we are there for them,supporting them, but also keeping an eye on them!
Here is the breakdown for the schools:
Volusia’s middle schools are opening their campuses to rising sixth graders and their families February 15 – March 1. Middle school students, teachers and principals will be on hand for tours and to talk about the exciting programs that are available at the middle school level. Parents will be able to ask questions, get details about special programs and learn how current students felt about transitioning to middle school.
Over a period of seven days, one east side school and one west side school will welcome their future middle school families from 6 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. Parents are encouraged to visit their zoned school. Here is the schedule:
