Dear Parents/Guardians:

It is an exciting time at D.C. Everest Middle School as we prepare for course registration for the 2010-2011 school year. We are very proud of the course opportunities that are offered to your child. This packet of information is to help you and your child choose what courses they would like to select for the upcoming year. You will find that your child will receive instruction in the core area courses such as language arts, math, science, social studies and English. In addition, they will receive instruction in computer skills, fine arts, physical education, health, technology education, foreign language, and family and consumer education.

In addition to our recent parent informational meetings, our counselors have met with your child to discuss the upcoming registration. If you have additional questions please contact our guidance department at 241-9700 (Lynn Lawson, 6th grade, ext. 2026 or Mike Wolfe, 7th grade, ext. 2311). Please return the Course Election Form as soon as possible.

We welcome your questions at any time. Also, we invite you to stay tuned for more information on two additional events that will occur as part of the transition into the new school year. In August we will hold our Open House (schedule pick-up, fee payment, co-curricular/sport registration, opportunities to ask questions, and tour the building) and Parent Night will occur in September (learning/curriculum overview, follow your child’s schedule and meet their teachers). The middle school experience promises to be an exciting, important, challenging, and fun time in your child’s education. We’re glad to be partners with you throughout this journey!

Sincerely,
