Deerlake Middle School

         ,

                                                             Welcome to 6^TH Grade

I am so excited about this school year.  We will have a fantastic time! There is a lot to learn and many hands-on experiments to enjoy. I hope students learn to be interested in Science. I don't expect all students to love it, just be open to the possibilities.

PLEASE UPDATE EMAIL AND PHONE NUMBERS on FOCUS Website.  I send notifications communicate via email. 

ALL assignments and weekly syllabus are on canvas.  The best way to stay notified of classwork, is to have your child log onto your computer using their canvas information. You should be able to see everything they see.
GRADES are on Focus not Canvas
