The first 6th Grade Parent Coffee will take place on Tuesday, September 29, from 8:15-9:00 a.m. on the main side of our dining hall. Please come join Head of Middle School Shaka Arnold and me (Julie Keating, Sixth Grade Team Leader) to learn more about sixth grade life alongside fellow grade-level parents.

Soon, the Middle School will be sending out information about upcoming fall conferences. This first set of sixth grade conferences will be led by your child’s advisor, not by each academic teacher. Your child’s advisor will reach out to you directly. Seventh and eighth grade families will have the option to meet with all of their children’s academic teachers.

Sincerely,

Julie Keating

Sixth Grade Team Leader, Science Teacher
