POV: You Walked Into the Minor Middle Library…
…and caught our Tigers enjoying a little quality time with a good book!
Some found a quiet corner. Some read alongside friends. Some discovered something new. And some just had to show off what they were reading!
At Minor Middle, reading doesn’t have to look the same for everyone. Whether it’s at a table, in a comfy chair, or alongside a friend, every page helps build stronger readers.
Now it’s YOUR turn! What are you reading right now? Drop a picture of your book in the comments! 👇

Minor Middle H.O.P.E. Team | ALL IN
Our Minor Middle H.O.P.E. Team recently stepped into professional learning with one goal in mind; becoming even more intentional about how we serve our students, support one another, and strengthen our school community.
Through the ALL IN experience, our faculty and administrators explored the power of connection, communication, shared identity, intentional encouragement, and living out our core values.
The experience served as a powerful reminder that building a positive school culture begins within each of us. When we are intentional, connected, and committed, we create an environment where both students and staff know they are valued, supported, and needed.
At Minor Middle, we’re ALL IN for our students, our school, and our community!

🎲 Rolling Into Reading!
After spending the week reading Frank Stockton’s classic short story “The Lady, or the Tiger?”, students in Ms. Halterman’s 6th Grade ELA class put a fun spin on literary review!
Students rolled dice featuring literature based questions that sparked discussion, encouraged critical thinking, and helped them review the text in an engaging, hands-on way. This kinesthetic activity gave students an opportunity to talk about their reading, share their thinking, and strengthen their understanding of the story, all while having a little fun!
At Minor Middle, learning doesn’t always have to look the same!

From Suspension to SOLUTIONS!
During our recent PREP staff meeting, Coach Belyeu introduced faculty to the updated procedures for In-School Solutions, his intentional rebranding of the traditional In-School Suspension program.
In addition to reviewing the process for submitting student assignments and keeping students academically engaged, Coach Belyeu shared his vision for making the experience about more than simply serving a consequence.
Through In-School Solutions, students will have opportunities to reflect on their choices, consider what they could have done differently, and identify better ways to respond in the future.
Accountability. Reflection. Growth. Better choices.
We appreciate Coach Belyeu for taking a solution-focused approach and helping our Tigers learn, grow, stay motivated, and stay the course!

Science in Action!
Mrs. Grey’s 8th grade science students put their learning into action by creating electricity and testing the conductivity of salt, sugar, and baking soda. Through this hands-on investigation, students explored which substances allow an electrical current to flow and used their observations to compare the results.
Experiences like these help students connect science concepts to real-world applications while strengthening critical thinking, problem-solving, and inquiry skills.
Great job, 8th grade scientists!

Weekend Recharge!
Reading isn’t just for ELA, it supports learning across the curriculum! Strong reading skills help students understand math problems, make sense of science concepts, explore history, follow directions, and communicate their thinking.
Just 20 minutes this weekend is a simple way to keep those skills growing.
Read. Recharge. Be ready for Monday!

Never forget 💙
Today, we remember and honor the lives lost on September 11, as well as the brave men and women who risked their own lives to save others. Let us unite on this day of reflection and remembrance.
