The Middie Mile From Here to There with Pride
Relationships “ 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 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. ― Fifth Grade Girl ”
Relationships “ Without positive personal relationships, schools become warehouses for students rather than learning centers. -Education.com ”

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.
