Dear Incoming West M.S. Families,

In May, we will be welcoming all 5th grade students from our feeder Elementary Schools to visit West Middle School.  On the scheduled visit, we will be providing a brief tour by our 8th grade mentors, a welcome from our counselors and principals, Q & A with Mentors, and some special surprises. 

May 11th Visit: Long Meadow Elementary School & Virtual Campus Elementary School

Students will be following all RCS health guidelines and protocols.  In an effort to keep your child socially distanced, all students will be placed into small prearranged groups guided by one of our 8th grade Mentors. To keep the groups spaced, we will rotate small groups between large areas in the Cafeteria, Media Center, and Auxiliary Gym.

Transportation for your student has been arranged: Students will be picked up from elementary schools at 12:10 pm. For their return home, students will be picked up from West and returned to their elementary building at 1:40 pm.
​
Virtual Campus: Parents can drop students off at West Middle School by 12:20 pm and pick up at 1:30 pm.  Please use the entrance off the side parking lot by the main office (door #17) for both drop-off and pick-up. Students must wear a mask upon entering the building and will sign in at the main office.
Please feel free to also take a virtual tour of West M.S. below:

POSITIVITY PROJECT AT LONG MEADOW

Next Week's Positivity Character Strength: Leadership

Picture
Parents and Guardians,
 
We are so excited to be partnering with the Positivity Project again this year.   
Next week, all children (grades K-5) will introduced Positivity characteristic of Leadership. 

 
This year the Positivity project has developed a family resource connection so that you can be part of Positivity in Action at home.   We have provided the one page character card and age appropriate video based on grade.  Feel free to look at the other resources we well.  These resources will give families the opportunity to continue enriching discussions at home. The family link will include the definition of the character trait we are learning, a short video to watch as a family, and sample discussion questions to continue learning about Positivity in Action at home. ​

 What is the Positivity Project?
The Positivity Project, also referred to as P2, uses 24 character strengths to help students build positive relationships.  Positive relationships are the cornerstone to health, happiness and resilience.  Each week all children in grades kindergarten through fifth grade will be introduced and explicitly taught the same character strength.  Everyone in our Long Meadow family will be provided with the same definition for each character strength.  This common language along with classroom instruction tailored to each grade level, will help to provide students with a deeper understanding of each character trait.  Children will soon be able to “see what the character trait looks like” through the use of videos, books, and discussions.  Children will be able to identify character traits in themselves and others. 
 
We are looking forward to working with families joining with us putting Positivity in Actions. Please see the schedule below.

Long Meadow Newsletter
This year has been the year of the parent. Parents have learned to put on a different cap for different times of the day; whether that is their work cap, their childcare cap, their teacher cap... the list goes on. Many times, parents have needed to wear all their hats at once to meet the daily demands of parenting, along with supporting their children as they learn from home. This month’s newsletter is dedicated to our wonderful parents. We must remember that in order to fill our children’s cups, ours must be full first. Please refer to the links below focusing on self care, reducing stress, and promoting mental health.​
​
     Self Care Strategies for Parents
     How to Take Care of Your Mental Health During Coronavirus
     Engaging Your Senses: Practicing a Guided 5-Senses Meditation
     Gratitude Meditation (Strengthen Happiness)
     Headspace Meditations
     TED Talk: Sleep
​Our RCS social-emotional support teams, which consist of counselors, social workers and psychologists, will be operating in all learning environments, including in-person/temporary remote learning and the RCS Virtual Campus.
