Information from Mrs. Wideman

This is Gena Wideman, your middle school principal. I would like to share with you a few needed to know items.

First, teachers have begun individual student data meetings to address student strengths and weaknesses. During the meeting, teachers will discuss individual MAP and benchmark scores and assist your child with setting goals to help them improve academically. The meetings may take place either face-to-face or virtually. If virtually, please make sure your child logs on with their teacher as directed to complete the meeting.

 

Second, we are nearing the end of the 1st nine weeks. If you signed your child up for virtual learning for just the first nine weeks, please make sure to come into the main office and see Ms. Middleton for updating your form. This is very important as we prepare to enter the 2nd nine weeks, keeping in-line with COVID-19 guidelines and staff and student safety. If you have any questions, you may contact Ms. Middleton in the front office @ (864) 443-2243.

 

Lastly, please be reminded that attendance is a must, not only required by MCSD, but required by South Carolina. Students should log-onto each class every day. The middle school follows the high school and is on period attendance. Logging on is not just to say “I’m here.” Students should be visible to the teacher, remain in class until given permission by the teacher to leave, be out of bed and be dressed appropriately, completing assignments before the deadline.
