WELCOME TO 6th GRADE!!!

 
Dear 6th graders,

Welcome to Iroquois Middle School!!! So, what's different from Elementary School?  The first thing you will realize is that your day at Iroquois will be different then you day at your elementary school.

The Day:

8:00-9:00 am:   Before school help and activities

9:00-9:15 am: Homeroom

9:15-3:30 pm:  Classes ( Math, English, Science, Social Studies, Foreign Language, Specials, Flex, PE, Lunch, and Advocacy)

3:30-4:15 pm:  After school activities ( Extra help sessions, clubs, intramural sports)

 

More Classes and teachers:

Most 6th graders will take six or seven different classes each day.  You will also have different teachers for each one. The English, Science, Math, and Social Studies teachers are called the "Team Teachers".  These four teachers will also see you at homeroom, flex, and advocacy times.  At the beginning of the school year they will plan team activities which will help you to get to know the other students in your classes.

 

 

More Classmates:

You may not be in classes with your current friends, but don't worry, you will see them in the cafeteria and in before and after school activities.  You will have the opportunity to make many new friends from the other elementary schools and students new to the district.

 

More Choices:

There will be a variety of before and after school activities for you to choose from.  Listen to the announcements and read the Iroquois web page to keep up on all the offerings.  Get involved,  participating in clubs and activities gives you a chance to meet new friends and to be part of the community.

 

 

Tips for success:

Have a positive attitude about becoming a part of the Iroquois community.  Be open to making new friends, and having new experiences.

Get involved!!!  There are a lot of things to do at Iroquois, join one of our clubs, join the chorus, participate in intramural sports. Student who are involved end up having a positive school experience.

Get connected!!!  try to connect with one or more adults in the building.  They are here to help, and it's always a good feeling to know that there is someone at school  to  talk to when you have a problem, or any type of question.
