    September 30, 2011                       Odyssey Team Fundraiser

    Today we began our team fundraiser.  The students will be selling Yankee Candle Company products.  The sale begins today and ends on October 14, 2011.  All orders, including the money, must be turned in to an Odyssey Team teacher by Monday, October 17, 2011.  The profits from the sale are used to fund our three team fieldtrips.  During a team meeting, students were given a product catalog, an order form, and an order envelope.  In our team meeting, we spoke with students about being safe when selling their products.  We do not encourage door to door sales in neighborshoods that are unfamiliar to the students.  Please contact an Odyssey Team teacher if you have any questions or concerns.

    Dear Parents and Students,

    Welcome to the Odyssey Team!  The Odyssey Team teachers are looking forward to another terrific school year.  The first few weeks of school have been exciting.  The Odyssey Team students have spent a great deal of time learning their new schedules, opening their lockers, and getting to know the Odyssey Team teachers.  Communication is important for effective home and school relationships.  The Odyssey Team teachers will continually update the website with information that is important for the students.  Each teacher will update their homework pages as needed.  If you have questions or concerns, you may contact the Odyssey Team teachers at Stanton through email or direct calls to the school office.

    Stanton Middle School Meet The Teacher Night

    Meet The Teacher Night will be held on Thursday, September 1, 2011 at 7PM.  Parents are expected to report to their child’s first period class to begin the evening.  Parents will replicate their child’s daily class schedule by traveling from class period to class period every eight minutes.  Class teacher will present basic information regarding each class.  Students will bring home their class schedule for parents to bring to Meet The Teacher night.  This evening is for parents only.  At Meet The Teacher night, there will be an opportunity for parents to sign up for fall conferences in the Odyssey Team pod hall.  If you cannot make Meet The Teacher night, information will be sent home with students regarding parent conference sign up at a later date.

    We are looking forward to a wonderful school year!
