Tips for Helping Your Middle Schooler Manage Homework

Middle school is a time of transition for students.  Not only do they have to deal with social and physical changes, but they also have new academic challenges like multiple teachers and larger homework loads.  Recent brain development research tells us that adolescents often have a difficult time planning ahead and processing cause and effect type consequences, which is why middle school students are often reactive instead of proactive.  Their reactive nature also makes it difficult for them to manage their time and, at times, find the motivation to get their homework done.

Schools play an important role in helping middle school students learn how to manage their time.  CMS offers our students opportunities during the school day and after school to get help on their assignments as well as daily planners to help them learn how to organize their school work.  This year, CMS has also implemented Friday School.  Friday school serves two purposes: first, it is an opportunity to finish homework assignments that have not been turned in and second, it is a consequence for not turning in assignments.

Obviously, parents also play a crucial role in helping their middle school students learn how to manage their time and find academic success.  I know that our students' parents do the best that they can to help their students, but I also know that it can be difficult to talk to middle schoolers about school and academics.  Below is a link from schoolfamily.com that provides some simple tips for parents to help them help their middle school students stay on top of their homework and learn time management skills that will help them now and in their future.

CMS December 21st Awards and Activities Schedule

Students from CMS help load cans for the Caring for Sharing Food Drive

Chadron Public Schools will dismiss students at 1:30 on December 21st for Winter Break.  Chadron Middle School will run our 1:30 dismissal bell schedule on that day, but we will dismiss students to the gym for awards and activities at 12:30.

The 5th grade class collected 758 non-perishable food items and won the "Golden Can", which is an award that is given to the class that collects the most non-perishable food goods during the Caring for Sharing Food Drive.  In total, Chadron Middle School students collected 2,243 non-perishable food items, which were donated to the food pantry at Assumption Arena.

In addition to the Golden Can, the 5th grade class earned the opportunity to compete against the CMS faculty in a "Minute-to-Win-it" challenge.  The competition will take place in the Middle School gym and is scheduled to begin at 12:40.  The first round will last 15-minutes and include 4 challenges.  At the end of the round we will give out our end of the 2nd quarter awards and then do a second 15-minute challenge round.  All students (5th-8th grade) will be dismissed from the gym at 1:30.

We enthusiastically invite parents to come and watch the competition.  We had a lot of fun playing the 8th graders in a basketball game during last year's competition and we expect to have a lot of fun with our 5th graders this year! 

6th-12th Grade Band and Choir Concert

There will be a 6th-12th grade holiday band and choir concert on December 15th.  The bands will start their performances at 6:00pm and choirs will follow at 7:15.

We look forward to seeing you there.

H.O.P.E.

Mike Smith, a motivational speaker that brings a message of anti-bullying, hope, and wellness to students across the country, will be at Chadron Public Schools on December 5th.  In a little over two weeks, students at CMS raised over $800 to bring him to Chadron (motivated students can do amazing things)!  He will present to CPS students in all four buildings during the day on and then to parents and community members in the evening. Mike Smith will present to CMS students from 2:00-3:00 at the HS auditorium and then to all parents and community members from 5-7pm in the MS library. 

Alex Sanders, Mikaela Hastings, and Jayden Garrett went on KCSR 610 AM radio on 11/30/11 as representatives for the 8th grade health class that started the effort to bring Mike Smith to CPS.  In addition, their class has started a group called Helping Others Protect Everyone (H.O.P.E.) in an effort to provide peer support to students that are struggling with bullying and to strengthen our school community.

December Good News From CMS

Good News From CMS

Dear Parents/Guardians:

Between mid-November and late January, Dr. Bill Roweton will access Mr. Hastings 6^th grade math classes through remote video and audio equipment.  The sole intent is to enrich students enrolled in Educational Psychology, a course that Dr. Roweton teaches as part of CSC’s teacher education program.  Participating CSC teacher education students will work on observational skills, that is, “seeing” dimensions of the classroom context and student and teacher behaviors, all of which affect student achievement.  If you have procedural questions about the project, please contact Bill Roweton (432-5307 or wroweton@csc.edu) or Mr. Dressel (432-0708 or nichlas.dressel@chadronschools.net)

2010-11 Nebraska State Report Card Results for Chadron Public Schools has been released and once again our district has a lot to celebrate!  Our district has exceeded state and federal accountability requirements.  Please take a moment and convey to educators and students how much you appreciate their efforts!  The State of the Schools power point slide show can be viewed at: www.chadronschools.org.  Congratulations CARDINALS!

English, Science, and Math teachers have been busy working on curriculum alignment as part of our continuous school improvement effort.  The work that they have been doing includes curriculum mapping, standards alignment, and vertical curriculum alignment K-12.   Teachers in core content areas have also been working on setting NWEA goals with their students that include RIT score goals and a student self assessment.

MOA, the architect firm that CPS has contracted with for the proposed facilities rejuvenation project, released it preliminary plans to the public at a special Board meeting on November 7^th.  “Safe, Warm, and Dry” is the phrase that we are using to describe the plan, which includes roof repairs and replacement, HV/AC upgrades and controls, air quality improvements, window improvements, and lighting upgrades.  If you have any questions regarding the plan, please feel free to contact Mr. Dressel at 432-0708 or nichlas.dressel@chadronschools.net.

The first dance of the school year was held on Friday, November 18th, 2011 at the CMS gym.   The CMS Student Council planned and organized the dance that included a professional D.J. complete with lights and lasers! Students enjoyed and danced to music from various contemporary artists as well as some classic rock.  Thank you to the CMS student council for their efforts in organizing the dance and to the faculty and parents that helped chaperon.  It was a fun evening for our students!

8th grade students from Mrs. Kaus' 4th period social studies class paid tribute to our nations veterans at the annual Veterans Day Program on November 11^th.  The students did a wonderful job of putting together the program and playing the role of Masters of Ceremony.  The keynote speaker was Sgt. First Class Shawn Banzaff of the United States Army National Guard.  His message highlighted the need to continue to honor and respect our Nation's veterans as well as those who are currently serving in the armed forces.  He also talked about the humility that veterans display when they come back from war.  Thank you to Mrs. Kaus and the students from her 4th period class that organized the event for all of the hard work that they put into the Veteran's Day program; they did a fantastic job!  Thank you to Sgt. Banzhaff for his excellent keynote address.  And, especially, thank you to all of our Nation's veterans for their service and sacrifice.

7^th and 8^th grade students attended the Chardron High School One Act Play production of Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus during 9^th period on November 22^nd.  Thank you to Mrs. Paopao for allowing our middle school students to enjoy their production.  

7th & 8th Graders Rock "Club Cardinal"

The first dance of the school year was held on Friday, November 18th, 2011 at the CMS gym (aka  Club Cardinal). The CMS Student Council planned and organized the dance that included a professional D.J. complete with lights and lasers! Students enjoyed and danced to music from various contemporary artists as well as some classic rock.

Thank you to the CMS student council for their efforts in organizing the dance and to all of the faculty and parents that helped chaperon. It was a fun evening for our students!

November 21st Wrestling Meet Cancelled

Parents,

The wrestling meet at Bridgeport that was scheduled on 11/21/11 has been cancelled.  There has not been any word as to whether or not it will be rescheduled.

CMS Student is 2011 NACD Poster Contest State Finalist

Brenna Hawthorn, a 7th grade student at Chadron Middle School, created an original poster that has been selected to advance to the State 2011 National Association of Conservation Districts (NACD) Poster Contest. The Upper Niobrara White Natural Resources District, the Nebraska Association of Resources Districts and the National Association of Conservation Districts are sponsoring the 2011 poster contest with the theme: Forests for People: More Than You Can Imagine! Brenna's poster is being judged on it's conservation message, visual effectiveness, originality and universal appeal. Good luck at the state competition Brenna!

State of the School Report on Friday, November 18th

 CPS Curriculum Director, Maribeth Moore, will present the State of the Schools to CPS faculty at an in-service on Friday, November 18th.  Once again, our students' scores were outstanding!  Our teachers and students should be commended for their excellent work!  Check out the CPS State of the Schools Power Point at State of the Schools.

We have a 1:30 dismissal on Friday, but due to the in-service, we will not run Friday School (1:30-3:20) for students that are missing work.  All late work needs to be turned in by the end of the day on Friday to receive partial credit.  Any work that is not turned in will receive a zero.

CMS Honors Veterans

Students at CMS Honor Veterans on 11/11/11

8th grade students from Mrs. Kaus' 4th period social studies class paid tribute to our nations veterans on Veteran's Day last Friday.  The students did a wonderful job of putting together the program and playing the role of Masters of Ceremony.  The keynote speaker was Sgt. First Class Shawn Banzaff of the United States Army National Guard and his message highlighted the need to continue to honor and respect our Nation's veterans as well as those who are currently serving in the armed forces.  He also talked about the humility that veterans display when they come back from war.

One especially touching moment was when the students paid tribute to the veterans of World War II.  Sgt. Banzaff said, "..these men and women are just mom, dad, grandma and grandpa to us, but they saved the world."  The Department of Veteran's Affairs estimates that 1,100 WWII veterans die every day and they take with them the living history of the war.  It is crucial that we learn and record this history for the sake of posterity.

Thank you to Mrs. Kaus and her 4th period class for all of the hard work that they put into the Veteran's Day program; they did a fantastic job!  Thank you to Sgt. Banzhaff for his excellent keynote address.  And, especially, thank you to all of our Nation's veterans for their service and sacrifice.

Student Leadership and Service In Action!

CMS 6th grade student, Brooklyn Stack, thought the area around Chadron Middle School looked alittle trashy and decided to do something about it. So, she called on ten of her 5th and 6th grade friends to help clean it up on Wednesday, October 26th. After school, the students, Brooklyn's mother Jill, and Lorna Eliason spent 1hour 45 minutes picking up trash around the middle school and track. They also swept both front steps and sidewalk in front of CMS to create a better curb appeal.

Thank you for your leadership Brooklyn and for showing pride in our middle school. Also, thank you to Aubree Noble, Moriah Hastings, Alpine Hickstein, JashwaAlan Cummings, Cody Madsen, Jensen Lambert, Jake Lemmon, Cassie Boggs, Pamela Fisher, and Lance Cattin for taking pride in your school and volunteering your time to make your school a better place. Thank you to Keep Chadron Beautiful for providing supplies and equipment for the litter pick up.

1st Qtr. No Offense Pizza Party

Chadron Middle School students that did not receive any offenses during the first quarter were treated to a pizza party last week during lunch as a thank you for their excellent behavior! There were 143 students that did not receive any offenses including 1st period and lunch period tardies!

Noon Dismissal on November 2nd, 2011

Dear Parents/Guardians:

On Wednesday, November 2^nd, 2011 we will dismiss school at 12:00pm due to the home high school football playoff game against Norfolk Catholic.  The game will begin at 1:30pm.  Chadron Middle School students will attend all of their classes on that day, but classes will be 24-minutes long instead of the usual 46-minutes.  Students will only have 24-minutes for lunch on that day, so if your student usually goes home for lunch, you may want to consider having your student eat at school because there may not be enough time for your student to walk home, eat, and be back in time for their next class.

Below is the class schedule for November 2^nd.  We will still run a 1:30 dismissal on Friday, November 4^th. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Sincerely,

Nick Dressel

October Good News From School

Good News From CMS

Dear Parents/Guardians:

The end of the 1^st quarter is on October 14^th – I can’t believe how fast the time has passed!  We will have our end of the quarter awards assembly at 1:15 on Friday, October 14^th in the CMS gym.  Some of the awards that students will receive include:

• The Cardinal Effort Award, which is given to two students in each grade that have really put forth their best effort in their classes over the course of the quarter.  This award is special because the students’ teachers select the award winners.
• Perfect Attendance Awards, which are given to students that have not been tardy to class or missed a single day of school over the course of the quarter.
• The Cardinal Citizenship Award, which is given to students that did not receive a single offense over the course of the entire quarter.  This award includes a special lunch with principal!

Last week, students that did not receive Friday School for missing assignments during the month of September were awarded a “No Homework” ticket.  This ticket can be used in any class to “skip” one homework assignment.  The only catch is that the ticket must be used by the end of October and it cannot be used on major assignments or projects.

Service learning is alive and well at CMS!  Students in the CMS After-School Program took part in campus beautification projects that included painting outdoor trash barrels and oiling and priming the CMS Cardinal on the corner of 6^th and Ann Street before Ms. Mohr painted it.  Thank you the CMS After-School staff, all of the students that participated and to Ms. Mohr and Susan Hucke from Keep Chadron Beautiful for their contributions to these projects!  You can see the article and pictures on the school’s website (www.chadronschools.net) or at my Blog page (http://mrdressel.blogspot.com )

Congratulations to all of our student athletes on a great fall sports season!  I am very proud of the way that our student athletes represented our school and community.  Also, thank you to all of the parents for the outstanding support that you gave your student athletes and our fall athletic programs!

On November 11^th, at 10:15am, Mrs. Kaus’ 4^th period 8^th grade Social Studies class will host the 3^rd annual Veteran’s Day program at the HS Auditorium.  The program will include music, guest speakers, and ceremony designed to honor our Nation’s veterans.  The entire community is invited to attend the program and we hope to see you there.

 

As always, thank you for supporting your student and the programs at CMS.

Sincerely,

Nick Dressel

Think Different

Last week Steve Jobs passed away after a long battle with cancer.  Soon after his passing hit the media, social media sites were flooded with comments from people who wished to express their gratitude for the many innovative ideas that he, and the company that he co-founded, had over the last thirty years.

This YouTube clip is a slightly altered version of Apple's Think Different ad that premiered in 1997.  As I watched this clip, I could not help but think of how relevant its message is today given the turbulent, yet exciting times in which we live.

I truly believe that it is through education that we can live this message!  But we have to be willing to embrace technology, embrace change, and take risks.  Malcolm Forbes said, "Failure is success if we learn from it" and I believe that we can't allow the fear of failure to prevent us from trying new things.  So I challenge all teachers and students to be BOLD, take RISKS, and CHANGE the world to make it a better place.

CMS After-School Program Takes Part in Service Learning

Service-Learning is a method of teaching and learning that enriches an individuals life by engaging in meaningful hands on service to others or the community.

Students paint trashcans during the CMS After-School Program

CMS students and after-school staff painted outdoor trash barrels Cardinal red and black for Chadron Public Schools. Several students and staff oiled and primed the CMS Cardinal on 6th and Ann Street in preparation for painting by retired high school art teacher, Jeanine Mohr. The students and staff enjoyed the hands on experience to enhance their school appearance. Thank you to Susan Hucke, Keep Chadron Beautiful, the Chadron Public Schools maintenance team, and Jeanine Mohr for their assistance in completing the two projects.

What are MAPS Tests & Why Do Students Take Them?

Today, students all over the state of Nebraska will begin taking the Northwest Evaluation Association (NWEA) Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) tests.  These tests are written to the Nebraska standards and measure competency on the standards in Reading, Language Arts, Math, and Science.  Students at Chadron Middle School will be taking these tests on different days for the better part of the month of October, and the results of these tests will provide us with baseline data that will help us identify areas of deficiency in each of the testing strands.

An entire month of testing can become tiresome for students and teachers.  However, the data that we collect this fall really does help us identify areas that we need to focus on to ensure that our students are strong in all of the standards strands.  We also share the data with the students so that they know their areas of strength and the areas where they need to improve.  Having this knowledge helps students become more self-aware and with this knowledge we help students set personal growth goals for the spring tests that they will take in March.

So, as we move through the month of October and you have conversations with your students about school, please talk to them about testing.  Make sure that they are getting enough rest at night, that they are eating breakfast in the morning, and encourage them to do their best on all of the tests.  It is important to remind them that everyone has areas of strength and areas where we need to improve and that these tests are not the end-all be-all of their academic career.  It is one test that is give on one day and if they don't perform as well as they would have liked, encourage them to study hard and to give their best effort again in March.

As always, I sincerely thank you for the many ways that you support your student(s) and the school.  If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thank you,

Nick Dressel
Chadron Middle School, Principal    

October 6th Parent Meeting

Dear Parents:
