Making the best of a cold December!

What a busy month of December we have had. In fact, this month has been so busy with activities that we have not had time to update you on our happenings in the blog! Below are some snapshots of what we have been doing this month.

Additionally, please take some time to complete the parent survey below for the middle school. This survey will help us to continue to improve our school, and is an opportunity for you to provide us input on what we are doing well, and what we need to continue to work on!

Freeland Middle School Parent Survey

Choir - Caroling at Assisted Living Facilities
Our middle school choir recently went to Bartonwoods and Stone Crest Assisted Living facilities to sing carols to the residents. It was a wonderful afternoon for students, and was a great way for them to give back to the community.


Students Giving Back
Laney Rigg and Jessica Latty recently visited Good Samaritan Rescue Mission in Bay City to do crafts with children who are staying at the rescue mission. This was an opportunity for them to give back to their community, and uplift spirits for the holidays!


Band and Choir Concert
Earlier this month both the band and choir had their Christmas concerts. The house was packed watching these two groups perform. Both did an amazing job!





GRIT Homeroom
We had a homeroom in December focused around our second marking period theme - resilience. This is part two of our year long GRIT theme. First marking period we focused on growth and what it means to have a growth mindset. Next marking period we will be discussing integrity.






2nd Annual Feliz Navi-Dodgeball

Our second annual dodgeball tournament was a HUGE success. None of this could have happened without the organization, planning, and preparation that Mrs. Gotts and the student council put into the event. We had 16 teams participate, and had a full house watching the tournament this year. A huge thank you goes out to the FAA and all teachers who participated in the event. Whether it was working the concessions stand, playing in the teacher round, or being a ref during the game, everyone was involved in making this year's dodgeball tournament one filled with great middle school memories!

Congratulations to the winning team The Snipers!


And a huge shout out to all of our parents who participated in the parent vs. student game!


For even more images of the dodgeball tournament, check out this Google Folder. It is full of images from the entire event!

Have a wonderful winter break and Happy New Year! See you all in 2017

Middle School Parent Survey

In order to continue to improve our school, we ask that all parents take time to complete the Middle School survey attached below. This is a survey that will only take about 10 minutes of your time, and is very beneficial for our staff and students!

We will also have this survey available during our February 9th conferences.


Thank you for taking this survey and sharing your thoughts with us. Your responses are appreciated!
