LOCKER DAY!!
In the later months of every school year, our fifth grade students always come up to Waldwick Middle School for a "tour." We have current middle school students walk them around the building, and we leave fifteen minutes at the end of the tour for a question and answer period. Every year, the number one question on every student's mind is...."What if I can't open my locker??" For some reason, there is always a constant fear in our incoming students' minds about lockers! Don't worry, these fears are almost always gone within the first week of school. Even before the first day of school as we offer LOCKER DAY here at Waldwick Middle School on August 30th, 2012 from 9:00am - 2:00 pm. Students will have an opportunity to open their own locker, to try out the combination, and to put any school materials they want into their locker. This saves time on the first day of school, and also takes away some anxiety before that first day...so I hope many of our new students take advantage of this day tomorrow.
Welcome!
Welcome to my counselor blog!
I have decided to start a blog for the Waldwick Middle School Guidance Department for a number of reasons. The first reason is the ease and quickness it allows me to get information out to parents. I can quickly dispense information regarding scheduling, NJ ASK testing, report cards, field trips, etc. My hope is to use this also as a resource for parents to view events at the Middle School, and keep the community aware of assemblies and our latest character education adventures.
I also wished to start this blog as a way to distribute information to parents that I believe is interesting. It may be an article I stumbled upon regarding parenting, or a video explaining how to better monitor your child on the internet. My hope is that parents and educators use this blog as a way to gain information regarding the adolescent world.
I look forward to reading some of your comments, and please bear with me as this blog will continue to be a work in progress.
