Rolling Hills Middle School

Principal's Corner - Nov 9

As the days become shorter and night falls sooner, we find our children around the house more. Often, the first thing they do is sit in front of the computer, turn on the TV, go to their room, play video games, or play on their phones.  These are opportunities to have those conversations we often put off until we’re too tired. Asking those yes or no questions aren’t always the best conversation starters with a middle school child. Try asking any of the following- you’ll have a better chance of an extended discussion and more information about your child’s everyday life here at RHMS:

What was the funniest thing that happened to one of your friends today?

If you could have one class that lasted longer than the others today, what would it have been? What makes that class good for you?

If you could have not gone to one class today, which would you choose? What would make that class better?

Which is better: first grade or the one you’re in now? Why?

 

Enjoy your long weekend,
