From Here to There with Pride

“
The secret in education
lies in respecting the
student.
”
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
My Middie Voice
Throughout this and future Middie Miles you will see a few excerpts
from students. Some spelling and grammar errors were fixed to
improve readability. Formatted for printing, there were 99 pages of
comments! Our students had a lot to say about pretty much
everything. The comments will be denoted by the My Middie Voice
sound icon above.
The data will be emailed to your principal soon for sharing with the
staff.

On Coolness
“
I think people are very nice and that the teachers
help me if needed. They also encourage me and
my classmates to be responsible students. This
school is a pleasure to be at and I am gonna
encourage other people as well. I love this school.
Its cool so… Also thank you for the new
Chromebooks they are a blast :)

On Testing
“
I think my school needs to change some of the
ways we do things like the OAA. Nobody really
likes taking a 2 and a half hour test and so I just
think when it comes we just need to learn what
we need to learn and not worry about it until it
actually comes and not be pressuring us about it.

On Awesomeness
“
I think that my school is awesome. They help me
learn and stay focused. My teachers respect me
and so do my principals. And they are my role
models. And they keep bullying away. And I am
glad we go on field trips because they are fun. I
am glad my principal is my principal.
