Wildcat Families,

Thank you to all the families who have already participated in our SchoolStore fundraiser!

We are on our way to reaching our goal, but we need everyone's help to ensure our teachers get the essential tools to help our students succeed.

If your family has not participated, there's still time!

The kiddos have LOVED getting the participation prize of Sealife Wristbands!

This safe and easy fundraiser is 100% online, so there is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. Your child will receive a prize just for participating, and more prizes will be awarded when goals are reached.

Please help now. It really will make a difference.

Teachers love the Gift Cards being donated directly to your Advisory Teacher...Now THAT is having a DIRECT impact!

Go to https://www.schoolstore.net/sid.t?0000277453 to show our valued teachers your support.

Thanks
Norman L Sullivan Middle School

P.S. Family participation is the key to our success, and we are counting on you!

We had a great turnout for our 1st PTO meeting this past Monday, 9/11. Welcome to our new members who joined us this year!

We discussed fundraising opportunities and fun events to start planning for our Wildcats and discussed classroom/ teacher needs for this school year.

Please check out our membership information. You can help by donating or signing up for any of our events.

Thank you for your support!

Your student should have received the Wildcat Planner with the student handbook in the front. Please help your student by checking for homework and classwork completed every day. This is what Sullivan is using to help our Wildcats stay organized and another way for teachers and school to communicate with our families.

Please take a moment to review the memo below.

ATTENTION PARENTS!

We are excited to announce that we extended our safety and security for all staff and students by installing a fence around the front of our school! Visitors will be required to bring ID and check in at the Welcome Booth before anyone is permitted on campus.

Only emergency vehicles, buses, those with handicap placards, and those with other special placards have access to the upper lot, emergency lane closest to the front of our schools. You will need to show your placard to Campus Security.

This decision to enforce our existing parking lot plan aligns with the recommendations of our community safety partners and will increase our ability to maintain a safe and secure site:

• When dropping students off, please use the lower levels of the parking lot.
• When visiting either the middle or the high school office, please park in the lower levels, bring your ID to the Welcome booth, and check in with the appropriate staff.

We appreciate your partnership and support in our efforts to provide the highest levels of safety for our students
