Mr. England - MS Principal

Good evening!
This is Dustin England, Adena Middle School Principal, with important information for middle school families as we embark on a new school year. We hope that everyone has had an enjoyable summer and we are excited to welcome all the students back to Adena for the 2019-20 school year.

All back to school information has been sent and you should be receiving it very soon. If you have recently registered your child in the district, your packet may not be sent until later this week. The contents of the mail will have important information pertaining to the start of the school year. Such as, welcome letter, school schedule, and medical forms. 7th grade students will also receive another letter about immunizations that are required for all 7th grade students.
The open house will be held on Monday, August 19th from 5-6:30 pm. All students and parents are encouraged to show up and get familiar with their new teachers. A 5th and 6th grade orientation will take place in the auditeria that evening starting with the 5th grade at 5 p.m. and the 6th grade at 5:30. During this meeting we will discuss important details for new middle school students. The 6th grade parents are encouraged to attend because we will discuss the details of the 6th grade camp trip that will take place in early September. If you do not receive your schedule in the mail, one can be obtained at the open house in the middle/ high school office. Reminder you may return your emergency medical form that evening as well to the office secretary.

The homeroom for a 5th grade student is listed as the tenth period known as the attendance period. All 6-8 students will report to first period on their schedule.

The first day for students will be Wednesday, August 21st. If you have any questions regarding any of this information, feel free to contact MS Office at (740)998-2313.

We are looking forward to the start of another great year!
