Preparing and testing lunar landers in 7th grade science!
On Wednesday, October 28, we will be giving the PSAT 8/9 test on our campus. The cost is $13.00 and is available to 8th grade students. The PSAT 8/9 allows students to practice and prepare for the SAT. It gives them an opportunity to work on timed tests since they tend to struggle with the time constraints of the SAT and ACT. In addition, the PSAT corresponds directly to the SAT, and with the results, you will receive information on how to continue to prepare for the SAT based on your student’s scores. If you would like for your son or daughter to take the PSAT 8/9, please have him or her come by the counselor’s office to sign up by Oct 21. Please make checks payable to Mineola Middle School. Space is limited, so students should sign up soon. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact Mrs. Dudley at 903-569-5338.

It is also important that they bring clean clothes everyday. Remember being clean and staying clean will be the key for our schools moving forward successfully.

Welcome Back to School! Dear Students, We want you to know, first, that we have MISSED YOU! This is going to be a year like no other, but we are up to the challenge. Our staff has been working hard to welcome you back, whether in person or virtually. If you are attending in person, your teachers will give you directions on how to access their Google Classrooms on the first day of school. If you are a virtual learner, there are several things you need to know in order to get started: 1. Watch for e-mail communications from the school and/or your teachers. 2. Find the e-mail called “JOIN CODES” to find the Google Classroom Join Codes for each of your teachers’ Google Classrooms. Note that some teachers have created a class just for their virtual learners. Please check your schedule to make sure you are joining the right class. PARENTS, please do not join your child’s Google Classroom. Instead, ask the teacher for parent access. 3. Make sure to complete your INTRODUCTORY ASSIGNMENT for each class period in Google Classroom on the first day of school BEFORE NOON in order to be counted present. Any student who does not make contact with their teachers in Google Classroom will be unenrolled from school and will need to register again. 4. Paper packets for virtual learners will be available for pick up this Friday, August 14th and will be available every Friday in the Newspaper Stands in front of the school by 4:00 p.m. 5. If you experience technical difficulties, please contact Mrs. Baker at (903) 569-4001.
