If you will be visiting the Middle School during the school day WITH your student, PLEASE let Mrs. Mirek know what morning you will be there (February 10, 14, OR 16 @ 9:00am). It will help when attendance is taken. Don’t Worry - this will NOT be counted as an Absence or Tardy. If your student will need a HOT LUNCH that day, please let us know what option, too. Thank you!
