Summer update

Hey everyone,

I hope you're enjoying the final days of summer! By now, you should have received an email from Mrs. McLaurin. Unfortunately, she will not be with us at Midway any longer. She has transferred to the Alternative School. I will be the SGA advisor (and I don't know if I'll get an assistant or not :-( ). Below are the dates/events that are required within the next couple of weeks. You've known about these since the end of last school year so there should be no problems.

Upcoming dates/events:

• Summer SGA Retreat: Tuesday August 17 from 9:00-1:00 (then for those that would like, we'll head out to lunch at Andy's)
• Freshman Orientation: Thursday August 19 from 1:00-4:30
• High School Academy: Friday August 20 (exact times TBA, but all day)
• Open House: Monday August 23 from 4:00-7:00 pm

*Plan to wear your SGA shirts and khaki pants on these days... until we get the new shirts!

As discussed earlier in the year, we will be meeting bimonthly on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of the month. Below are the dates.  They are also on the calendar/website.

Midway SGA is now on Facebook! If you are already on facebook, you can add yourself.  ( If you're not on facebook, you don't have to join so don't worry.) Anyone can post to the wall. This is just an added way for us to keep up with one another and for the rest of the school to keep up with what we're doing! :-) (*Please note that I will not add you to my *personal* facebook page until after you graduate. However, you can still message me and I'll get it.)

The facebook page does not replace the website, it just enhances it so please make sure to keep up with the website!  Also, if you ever need to contact me, you can call/text me. Please do not call/text after 9:30 pm (yes, I know I'm old). I work from home at night so I'm almost always on Skype if you need me.  My username is "teryn.odom".

If you haven't seen it yet, the county websites, including our school, got a face-lift!

Let me know if you have questions/issues, otherwise I will see you next week!
