On Friday, October 4, students at the McKenzie Middle
School participated in Dress Up Day. Students were
encouraged to dress by grade level as follows: fifth
grade: camouflage; sixth grade: bad hair day, seventh
grade: mismatched and eighth grade: twins. We had an
excellent turnout in student participation. The winners
of cash prizes awarded by the Students Council for best
dressed were as follows: fifth grade: Jesse Forsythe;
sixth grade: Teneisha Carey; seventh grade: Zack Cox;
eighth grade: Kristi Petering and Brittany Martin.
Students in Mrs. Basford’s sixth grade reading class who
participated in the Reading Log opportunity received
their awards on Friday, October 25 during class. Mrs.
Basford created the reading log for students to record
books or stories they read. This was in an effort to
show students they didn’t have to just read required
books, but could also read for enjoyment. The students
were allowed to include any book or story read on their
reading log. They must fill out an index card about the
book, giving details about what they likes most about it
and a brief illustration.
Winners received a coupon to Sonic for a free frozen
treat of their choice. The winners were Jessica Neisler,
Kellie Chalk, Harris Laughrey, Michael Pate and Deidra
Hamlin.
Our basketball teams are halfway through their
season. Our next home game is Monday, December 2 against
West Carroll. Dan and Sheila Ridley coach our girls’
team. Eighth grade team members are Anna Trull, Samantha
Doster, Jill Taylor, Andrea Swan, Laken Comer; seventh
graders include: Chloe Cunningham, Beth Aden, Lesley
Robertson, Jessica Milligan, Jill Mitchell, Sarah Owen;
sixth graders are Victoria Hampton, Elizabeth Russell,
Lacey Lane, Taneisha Gilbert, Zana Carter, Mignon
Salameh and Sydnee Greenberg.
Josh Kee is the boys coach. Eighth grade members are
Carson Rider, Britton McCann, Blake Milam, Corey Wilson,
Kendall Smith, Kelsey Schweitzer, Julian Tucker, Glenn
Smith and Derrick Hubble. Seventh graders are Cody
Burton, Derek Carr, Shabree Payne, Jessie Townes, Angelo
Edwards, Parker Jones, Josh Brown, Clint Kee and Charles
Lawrence.
Here are some important dates to mark on your
calendar. Progress reports will go home on November 14
with the students. This will let your know how your
child is progressing during the second grading period.
On November 20, we will have picture retakes. Students
that were absent on our first picture day or student
with flawed photographs will have pictures made. Also on
this date we will take basketball, cheerleading, and
club pictures. |
