Dress Code You’ve got to wear the “right thing” on the first day of school… Even though your new outfit may be the MOST stylish thing out there, DO NOT wear it to school if it does not fit the Dress Code.

Get Organized Life will be much easier if you develop a system for your schoolwork and belongings. You will now have a lot of books, papers, and school supplies, and you will need to organize them so that you can find what you need. Just shoving them in your backpack doesn’t work in middle school. Many of you already know how to use a planner and organize your binder. In middle school, your teachers expect you to do it.

We’re Here for You! Many of you will be moving from a school along with most of your friends, but there will be lots of new faces too. You will go from being one of the oldest kids at school to one of the youngest. If you find yourself in a situation where other kids are using their size or status to bully you, tell a member of the school staff IMMEDIATELY.

We’re Here for You! In middle school we want you to become more independent academically, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have support when you need help. There are a lot of people that can help you when you need it. If you need any sort of advice, assistance, or general support during your first weeks of middle school, ASK SOMEONE FOR HELP!

Things You Need to Know Orientation before school starts (August) is IMPORTANT! Keep up with what’s going on – Facebook (Jemison Intermediate/Middle School) and our school website. Supply lists
