Our students are continuing to finish out the trimester strong as we race to summer. I want to highlight some accomplishments our students have made on campus and in the community.

Thank you to all community members who were able to join us for our annual Open House. It was a wonderful evening highlighting our students, their demonstration of learning, and our dedicated teaching staff. For me, it was yet another reminder of what an amazing place Del Mar Middle School is, and how fortunate I am to work in service of your children!

Last night, Del Mar hosted a parent education program presented by representatives from Being Adept. For many years, with the support from our PTA, Del Mar has partnered with Being Adept to provide alcohol, drug, and tobacco education and prevention tools to all of our students; coupled with a parent education component.

Classroom teachers are directly responsible for notifying parents of possible failing grades. Whenever it becomes evident to a teacher that a student is in danger of not making adequate academic progress in a course, the teacher must send the parent/guardian written notification or arrange a conference, either in person or by phone, with the student's parent/guardian.

I want to use this week's newsletter to encourage a dialogue between you and your children about their use of social media. For the past few years, issues related to our students' use of social media off campus, at night and on weekends are surfacing at school and impacting students' ability to be engaged in their learning.
