Welcome to Glades Middle School

An A State of the Art School

Team 6A "The ACES"

Middle School can be a challenging time. Some tips to help with this transition are a) to be punctual, b) come prepared - a list of school supplies can be viewed on the gladesmiddle.org website, c) be organized and d) to log onto Pinnacle (grades/assignments) and schoolnotes (weekly classwork/homework/etc.)  - both these websites will keep you well informed. See directions on the team letter that you received on 8/20.

Donations of the following items are graciously helpful and contribute to our class running smoothly.

* hand sanitizer * tissues * paper towels

We have run out of these items. Your students  use them daily. Your donations will help and are appreciated. Thank you!

* gently used and/or new age appropriate chapter books to add to our classroom library.

* bean bag chairs

Homework: nightly read 20 minutes. Every thurs. write your short essay response according to the Reading Log Code (*for details see 2nd pg of schoolnotes.) Get this signed by parent/guardian. Bring into school friday and place into homework bin. *If any additional hw is assigned students will receive this in class.

However, if the assignment was given prior to the student being absent the assignment is due upon their return. Please adhere to this to avoid getting unnecessary Zeros on Pinnacle. Thank you.
