September 5, 2017 - Welcome Back!

 

GRADE 8Y – Warman Community Middle School 2019/20

Dear Students and Families,

Welcome to Grade 8!  I’m excited about the opportunity to get to know you, and I’m looking forward to being your homeroom teacher at Warman Community Middle School.  I will be teaching you English, Math, Science, Social and Physical Education.  I will also be coaching the Junior Girls Volleyball team.  I am available any scheduled noon hours and after school for assistance if you require it. 

I am sending home some forms for you to please fill out for us.  We ask that all the forms come back to us by Friday, September 8^th, 2017.  Not all students are given permission to leave the school grounds so that form is optional.  Also, you can change your mind at any time regarding giving or rescinding that permission. 

An important date coming up this week is Thursday, September 7^th, where there will be BBQ to meet the teachers and get to know our staff better.   As other dates approach, they will be posted on the calendar in our classroom.  We will be starting SRC, soccer, volleyball, and cross-country right away so students will need to listen to the announcements to find out about meetings, try-outs and practices.  Some of this information may come home via email to you as well.  Other important dates include our picture day which takes place on Friday, September 22^nd and our first interview date which is set for the evening of November 6^th and 8th.  If you wish to look ahead at other dates on the school year calendar it’s posted on the school website at http://blogs.spiritsd.ca/wcms/ 

If you do have any questions or concerns, or if you would like to schedule a conference, you can contact me through the office at Warman Community Middle School at (306) 683-3000 or by email at angela.yedersberger@spiritsd.ca.  If I am not available, leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible. 

REGULAR UPDATES TO CLASS INFORMATION, ASSIGNMENTS, TEST DATES, ETC. CAN BE SEEN AT http://msyedersberger.blogspot.ca/

Once again, welcome to Grade 8!  Let’s work together to make this the best year ever!

Sincerely,

Ms. Angela Yedersberger
