Please remind your students to charge their Chromebook every night and bring it ready for instruction every day to school. Chargers should really be left at home to keep them safe and we do not have the capacity at school for charging student devices. The battery on the new device is great and should last all day. Students should only charge their Chromebook with the charger they were issued, nothing else, please. Any Chromebook questions or concerns can be sent to Traci Matthews, tmatthews1379@pcssd.org.
Please consider getting the insurance for the new Chromebook. It is $27 and covers a variety of damages. Families will pay the company directly. No money needs to be sent to the school for insurance. www.smarttechins.com/pulaski or call 877-307-6777

Greetings Parents,
This is Nurse Aaron at Maumelle Middle School. I wanted to send out a reminder:
ANY medication at the school MUST go through the Nurse's Office.
-- A Medication Administration Release Form must be filled out and on file for a student to self-carry any medication.
-- Over the counter medications (OTCs) must be prescribed by a physician in order for the student to have it at school. (This includes things like ibuprofen, tylenol, benadryl, etc.)
-- The district medication policy is in the Student Handbook on page 55 for your convenience.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. Go Stingers!!!
Continuing to showcase the first days of school activities...
Ms. Hodges' classes participated in the following:
Creating name tents so we can learn each other's names and playing 2 Truths and a Lie to get to know those at their tables. Great job, students!

Our wonderfully creative teachers have been providing engaging lessons for their classes during these first days of school!
Ms. Faulkner's classes have participated in the following:
THE PROBLEM
Fred wanted to go fishing in the ocean while on vacation. Fred never wears his life vest. Unfortunately, Fred got caught in a storm, and his boat overturned with Fred underneath the boat while his life vest floated away from him. Did I mention Fred cannot swim?
THE SOLUTION
You and your team are responsible for saving Fred. You need to move the boat off Fred and ensure that Fred has his life vest on before you can declare victory.
RULES
You may not touch Fred.
You may use only the four paperclips to move Fred, the boat and the life vest.
You may not injure Fred in any way.
You may not touch anything except the paper clips.
Thank you! Go Stingers!!!

'Twas the night before school starts, and all through the district
Our teachers are feeling quite optimistic.
The buses and classrooms were prepped with such care,
Ready to welcome the students with fresh lessons to share.
In Maumelle, stingers from five awesome school
Will swarm the hallways and follow the rules.
Always buzzing to play, to learn and to grow
Excited to be back at the best school that they know!
All the birds, bears and bobcats from our Sylvan Hills Feeder,
Will be ready to go because they're so eager.
They're quick to connect, joining hands, setting records
Bringing smiles and pride to the city of Sherwood!
Our Mills feeder students shine bright as they dream
We’ve got dragons, big cats and birds on the team.
Soaring to become Comets, brightening the sky
As they work to graduate from Mills University Studies High.
As Senators, Broncos, Gators and Panthers climb into bed
Our Robinson students are resting their heads.
This feeder is DRIVEN, they are ready to rock
It’s time to sleep, no more watching the clock.
The start of the 24-25 school year is looking so bright!
Our teachers, admin and staff wish you all a good night!
