November Happenings

The month of November has just flown by hasn't it! We have had a busy month of celebrating, learning, and growing together at Freeland Middle School.

After each marking period, we always celebrate with a SOAR assembly that brings our student body together to share successes, honor students, and have some fun! During our assembly this month we were able to honor two students who received the Optimist Club award - Jackson Vlassis and Ryleigh Roberts.

We also celebrated several students for being students of the month/marking period! Students are chosen for this honor when they continually show effort in their academics and follow our building wide SOAR expectations.



The Choir was able to serenade us once again with a few of their beautiful songs. We are super excited for their upcoming Choir Concert featuring many class Christmas carols on December 12th at 6:00pm in the auditorium. Immediately following the Choir Concert our Band will also be performing some holiday tunes for us!


There was also an opportunity for staff and students to have some fun together with games that the student council planned.



Our students have also been hard at work with many project based learning experiences. This is a building and district initiative we started a few years ago to make sure our teachers were equipped with the tools and knowledge to engage students in 21st century learning that focused on collaboration, critical thinking, communication, and creativity. Mrs. Gotts' class did an incredible job with their project based learning experience and are showcasing their work in the pictures below. 



And, this month got even more amazing today when we had a HUMAN giving tree show up to kick off our sharing tree event. Every year, FMS students give back to local families in need by participating in the Giving Tree project. Thank you Mrs. LaFond for helping us to kick off this great event! 



What a great November our school has had, we cannot wait to see what December brings.
