Middle Matters Week of Oct. 3rd 2016

Brooks Families:

Welcome to October and fall. This is a beautiful time of year. Our very own Gwendolyn Brooks reminds us to...

"Live and go out

Define and

medicate the whirlwind"

Coffee with Khan 10/7

Please join me for coffee this Friday (10/7) at 8:30am. We will be discussing the middle school experience.

Long Term Substitutes

We have a few teachers out on leave and I wanted to make sure families had the contact info of the long-term sub in their place. Your student is held to the same academic standard while their teacher is on leave.

Ms. Ebert's sub is Ms. Alili ([email protected])

Mr. Contraveous' Sub is Mr. Powers ([email protected])

Mr. Pros' sub is Mr. Bishop ([email protected])

D97 Central Office is moving!

The D97 central office is located at 260 Madison Street. The move will take place on October 11th.

8th Grade Trip to Washington DC!

A group of parents, teachers and students are headed to DC this coming weekend. This is an exciting experience for our students. They go to the Pentagon, museums, and such much more. Please wish them safe travels and lots of learning experiences.

Yours in education,

LeeAndra Khan, Principal
