Welcome Back!



When you work at a school, you don’t even have to look at a calendar to tell that August has turned to September. The empty athletic fields are suddenly burgeoning with modified sports teams (Thanks to http://savemodifiedsportsatwg.com), books are flying off the shelves in our library and the quiet hallways are now full with the voices of our students.  
Welcome back everyone! The 2012-13 school year will bring many changes to us here at Camillus Middle. From the new Common Core Learning Standards in ELA and mathematics, to our improved student management-grading portal SchoolTool, to the implementation of the Olweus anti-bullying program, our entire school community is ready to learn and grow. 
I will be writing about all of these changes in this monthly newsletter, but you can get a sneak peak by attending our Curriculum night on September 18 at 6:30 p.m. In the meantime, please feel free to call, email or just stop by the office should you have any questions.
