Hey, DA community welcome to this year’s EduBlogs, I am your new 7th Grade Public Relations, Amari O. Obviously I’m a 7th grader and as I included in my speech, I play 4 sports and I’m really interactive with people. My favorite color is red, so when I’m rocking all red just know that it’s my favorite color, and my favorite ice cream flavors are Cookies N Cream and Vanilla. I love to dance and sneaker shop. I’ll be posting all year on this year’s blog, so let’s have fun and have a good year.

Wow! It has been an amazing, fun-filled year! Make sure to find an eighth grader and wish them well through their journey in the upper school! Thank you Katherine for all you did for the student council and the blog this year… We’ll miss you next year! Happy summer to all middle school students and faculty! Here’s a quick recap of the first little bit of our 2016-2017 year…

In the beginning, we had a Spirit Week t-shirt contest, and ended up with an awesome shirt designed by MacKenna M., Camille M., and Alex H. Spirit Week was an awesome week this year… On Monday, (January 23), it was Sports Day… Dress up as your favorite athlete, or wear your favorite team colors! Then Tuesday (January 24) was Crazy Day. It was an awesome day to see your friends–and teachers!!– dressed in crazy goofy clothes! Wednesday (January 25) was Time warp day… People were dressed like themselves or their parents from years ago, and others in futuristic clothing–some even as dinosaurs! Thursday (January 26) was Pajama Day, one of everyone’s favorites! Wake up, brush your teeth, eat some breakfast, and grab your backpack… You don’t even have to get dressed! 🙂 The last day of Spirit Week everyone wore their 2017 Spirit Week shirts. We gathered together during the day to watch the Student-Faculty Basketball Game. That night was middle school night at the Cav Dome…We played out rival Ravenscroft and had sumo wrestling at half time, and a competition between advisories… The advisory with the most attendees got a pizza party! Then, we had the Middle School Winter Dance for 7th and 8th graders. The Winter Wonderland Dance was full of fun and the delicious food truck– Sweet Traditions.

Hi everybody and welcome to the 2015-16 Student Council blog run by Victoria and Claire! Victoria is the Secretary and Claire is the Historian. We are so excited to be sharing all of the wonderful things that happen in the Middle School and we hope that we will have many active readers this year. Our goal is to post at least once a week or more depending on the events that happen (i.e. Halloween festivities). We will try to share pictures taken by Claire and others as well as the writing of Victoria to give you an accurate representation of Middle School life. If you have pictures that you want to be featured in the blog from events, please email us at our school emails and we will be sure to post them for all to see. We want this to be a blog not just for the two of us, but for the entire Middle School community. So, if you have anything that you would like us to share, please let us know so we can incorporate your ideas into our posts! Thanks and remember to read so you know what’s happening in our community.
