Attention Milton High School athletes — it’s time to sign up for fall sports! Our new Athletic Director, Eric Karjel, has posted guidelines for fall sports registration on our website. Please click here or scroll down to the “Athletics” section for more info.

FROM THE DESK OF THE SUPERINTENDENT

I am always encouraging parents and guardians to support summer reading for their children. As part of this effort, I asked some of our teachers, principals and administrators to share their favorite summer read.

Student recommendations:

  • From Data Specialist Vy Vu: “There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Shell” by Lucille Colandro
  • From Curriculum Coordinator Amy Gale: “The Secret Destiny of Pixie Piper” by Annabelle Fisher
  • From Pierce Dean of Students Dr. Nick Fitzgerald: “The Pearl” by John Steinbeck
  • From Technology Director Dr. Angela Burke: “A Series of Unfortunate Events” by Lemony Snicket
  • From Pierce teacher Nancy Warn: “The Other Wes Moore” by Wes Moore
  • From Curriculum Coordinator Cat DesRoche: “Echo” by Pam Munoz Ryan
  • From Elementary Science Coordinator Bernadette Butler: “Rosie Revere, Engineer” by Andrea Beaty
  • From Humanities Director Barbara Wright: the “I Survived” series by Lauren Tarshis
  • From Pierce Science Coordinator Christie Chiappetta: “Brown Girl Dreaming” by Jacqueline Woodson

Parent/guardian recommendations:

  • From Pierce Principal Dr. Karen Spaulding: “Blindspot” by Mahzarin Banaji and Anthony Greenwald
  • From School Committee Member Dr. Elaine Craghead: “Fates and Furies” by Lauren Groff
  • From PE/Health Director Noel Vigue: “SPARK: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain” by John Ratey From School Committee Member Kristan Bagley Jones: “The Memory Keeper’s Daughter” by Kim Edwards
  • From Curriculum Coordinator Meredith Kempf: “Defending Jacob” by William Landay
  • From MHS Math Department Head: “All the Light We Cannot See” by Anthony Doerr
  • From Director of Fine & Applied Arts Dawn Sykes: “44 Scotland Street” by Alexander McCall Smith
  • From Superintendent Mary Gormley: “Between the World and Me” by Ta-Nehisi Coates

Also, I’d like to share the following article from Scholastic Magazine, which discusses the importance of “modeling” good reading habits for your children:

Your child walks like you, talks like you, absorbs everything you do. So set the right example when it comes to reading.

  1. Surround yourself with reading material. Books don’t belong only in libraries and classrooms. Make the written word a part of your living space, with books, magazines, and newspapers readily available throughout your home.
  2. Draw attention to all the things you read. Provide a bibliography for the things you talk about: When you explain why the sky is blue or who the first president of the United States was, tell your child which book helps you know these facts. you’ll show him how knowledge is largely shaped by the things we read and how reading connects us to the world.
  3. Buy or borrow books together. Whenever you’re going to the library or bookstore, let your child come along. Even if you aren’t looking for anything in particular, practice the art of book browsing and admiring. Make an event out of it and she’ll learn to be exhilarated by the sight of books.
  4. Don’t be a solo reader. Open up conversations through reading by pausing to read an interesting fact aloud or wonder what an unfamiliar word means. Knowing that the reading experience is not a solitary activity will motivate reluctant readers.
  5. Read for leisure. Show that reading isn’t work. Cuddle up with a good book and you’ll model how reading can be just the thing to make your day.
  6. Bring something to read everywhere you go. From the office to home, or even the living room to the bedroom, make sure you’re equipped with reading material — for yourself and your child. You never know when you’ll have some downtime. Show him that reading is a constructive (and fun!) way to pass the time.
  7. Emphasize the universal importance of reading. Librarians, teachers, students, mechanics, lawyers, doctors, architects, athletes . . . everyone reads. Show your child that reading is part of everyone’s life by reading diverse works that serve different purposes. Consider cookbooks, television manuals, online magazines, and cereal boxes. Make a habit out of living through reading.

The following item was submitted by Elementary Coordinators Amy Gale and Meredith Kempf:

School year 2016-17 is fast approaching and among all of our many exciting initiatives, the elementary teachers are most excited about the roll out of a new “standards based” report card. This new report card has been developed by a district-wide committee over the last two years and piloted by the kindergarten team this past school year. The purpose of this report card is to communicate to parents, guardians, and students, ongoing achievement towards grade level state standards. This is an objective tool that is used to measure progress towards proficiency in the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks and will provide clear information on what students are expected to know and be able to do by the end of each of three terms.  Each of the four elementary schools in the district will provide ample opportunities for parents to learn more about the new report card. Please monitor your school’s calendar for parent information sessions regarding this exciting roll out.

The following item was submitted from Technology Director Dr. Angela Burke:

What is “Standards-Based Reporting”?

A scholar’s individual achievement on standards is measured on attainment of the learning goals as outlined by state standards. The purpose of this system is to provide accurate information about scholar performance on the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks. The goal is to communicate scholar progress. Standards based reporting will help parents better understand their scholar’s strengths and weaknesses. Before making a determination regarding scholar proficiency, teachers analyze a scholar’s progress over the course of the reporting term. Teachers collect key samples of scholar work as evidence combined with observed demonstration of the skill through various modalities.

Why don’t we use grades?

Scholars and their learning are too complex to be reduced to a simple letter grade. Letter grades do not tell parents which skills their scholars have mastered. The achievement marks indicate a scholar’s progress towards achieving specific grade level standards as identified by the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks. Standards based report cards benefit scholars, teachers, and parents/guardians by providing a detailed outline of the expectations.

The report card is just one component of our reporting system. We encourage a strong home-school connection to keep you informed of your scholar’s progress. The comment box is provided for the teacher to include any additional information, however; to receive the full depth of understanding of your scholar’s progress please continue to attend parent conferences each reporting term.

SUMMER ASSIGNMENTS

The following item was sent to us by Curriculum Coordinator Amy Gale, as part of a recurring “reminder” about the importance of summer reading:

Now that the month of July is nearly over, you’ve likely developed some habits around your reading. Maybe you read right when you get back from the pool each day, or perhaps for a half hour after lunch or at bedtime. Whatever your routine is, see if you can add to it or shake it up a little. This might mean reading for 5-10 more minutes each day, it might mean reading with a friend as opposed to by yourself, or starting weekly dinner table conversations about the books people in your family are reading. Setting goals to push yourself as a reader is always a good idea!

A book is a device to ignite the imagination –Alan Bennett

RESIDENCY ISSUES

As we reported in several previous E-blasts, Milton families are required to re-establish residency with the school district prior to entering grades six and nine as well as Milton Public School students who attend school out-of-town.*

Families who have students in these categories are required to go to the following link  and provide all necessary documentation.

Ms. Patty Lesenechal, Milton Public Schools Residency Coordinator, said the process has been running very smoothly so far this summer. She has been working morning and evening hours all summer to facilitate parents/guardians’ work schedules. Ms. Lesenechal will be in the Milton High School main office (25 Gile Road) on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 7am to noon; and Tuesday evenings from 4-8pm.  Parents/guardians must submit Re-Establish Residency packets by Friday, August 26th to ensure their child’s uninterrupted placement in Grades 6 and 9. Ms. Lesenechal can be reached at 617-696-4470 ext 5516 or at plesenechal@miltonps.org

*This includes all students who attend Blue Hills Regional Technical School, Norfolk County Agricultural High School and Special Education out-of-district placements for students entering Grades 6 and 9.

UPCOMING MPS EVENTS

There are still two Summertime Stories session left for children age birth to 6 years old along with a parent or caregiver. Miss Sara, Milton Public Library Children’s Librarian will read stories, sing songs and delight children at these sessions. On August 4th the story time will be held at the Tucker Elementary School Playground (rain location will be indoors at Tucker).  On August 18­­­­­­­­­­­th, story time will take place at the Cunningham Hall.  (Please park across the street at Collicot School).  If the weather is nice be sure to bring a blanket as we will­­­­­­­ be outside.  Both sessions begin at 10:00am. Why not bring your soon-to-be Kindergartener and have them wear their yellow “I’m going to Kindergarten” t-shirt?  It’s a great way for them to meet new friends who might be in their class in September! This program is a wonderful, collaborative effort by the Milton Public Schools, the Milton Public Library and the Milton Early Childhood Alliance.

FOOD SERVICE NEWS

The following item was submitted by Food Service Director Jackie Morgan:

The greatest advice for how to choose foods for your family is also the most simple. Award-winning writer Michael Pollan has often been quoted for advising this—If your great-grandmother wouldn’t recognize it as food, then neither should you.

As parents, we strive to feed our children well to support growth, development and good health. With the spotlight shining on issues concerning the environment, energy and resource conservation, food safety etc. you’re probably wondering what you can do to make sure your children grow up into a healthy world. You might consider taking the following steps to guide your food choices, the results could be healthier children and a healthier planet:

  • Shop the perimeter

The fringes of a grocery store contain the healthiest, most natural foods, with little or no packaging – fruits and vegetables, herbs, meat, fish and poultry, dairy, fresh baked bread and bulk foods like nuts, seeds and dried fruit. Nutrition experts say that at least 90% of the food you buy should come from the fringes. The foods on the outside walls of a supermarket usually have less packaging as well.

  • If you can’t read it, don’t eat it

Avoid products with many ingredients or any ingredients you cannot easily read and pronounce. Recognize that there is a difference between what is food and what is just edible. In fact, naturally healthy foods often come free of a Nutrition Fact Label or ingredient list at all! Why bother labeling an apple, “apple.”

  • Buy local

Shop at farms, farmers markets, food cooperatives and participate in Community Supported Agriculture (CSA). The best food is the food less-traveled. Less traveled food uses less fuel as well.  To learn more about these services and where you can locate them where you live, go to www.localharvest.org

HEALTH ROOM NEWS

The following item was submitted by Margaret Gibbons, Director of Nurses:

With summer upon us, it is important to have a few safety reminders. We heard and read a lot lately about mosquitoes and the transmission of disease from their bites. It is important around our yards and gardens to make sure there is no standing water. No buckets filled by rain, no child’s swimming pool left full and do not let children play in places where there is water making an attractive play area. Apply appropriate insect repellent and use proper clothing to prevent getting potentially harmful bites.

This is also the time to check on sunscreen. Sunscreen from last year should be discarded and new sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 30 should be purchased and used every day and applied routinely through the day. Empower even young children to “remind us” to reapply. We do not want our children to get sunburns which can be prevented.

Although summer gives us all a chance to get “unscheduled,” mealtimes should still be maintained and a bedtime that meets parent and child needs. It is so easy to let all routines be broken, but August 29th is not the moment to enforce “bedtime” rules when they have been ignored for more than 8 weeks.

Summer provides many opportunities for families to exercise together outside. New rituals like a Sunday hike up Blue Hill can begin a tradition that lasts for years. No one says you must make it all the way to the top! Nature walks along the way are awesome for learning in a fun environment. We teach our children best by example. A bike ride (helmet, of course!) with the neighborhood parents and kids can be so exciting and gives another chance to teach safety.

Children learn through multiple encounters and the more we share these moments with them, the greater skills will be acquired, plus the bonds of trust and respect will grow. Have a wonderful, safe and happy remainder of the summer!

FROM OUR READERS

From time to time, parents, guardians, colleagues and teachers will send me an article they find interesting. I plan to share some of these in this and future blogs.

NEWS AROUND TOWN

With only a few weeks of summer remaining, there is still a chance to get out and have an adventure. Parents and guardians of students who just completed fourth grade and are now heading into fifth grade can take advantage of a fun federal program. Read below for more details:

Did you know that you own millions of acres of national parks, historic structures, cultural artifacts, ancient forests, snow-capped mountains, and clear blue lakes? Our federal public lands and waters belong to all Americans and are waiting for you to explore them! You can get your Every Kid in a Park pass at www.everykidinapark.gov, the official website where parents, educators, and kids can learn more.

To help engage and create our next generation of park visitors, supporters and advocates, the White House, in partnership with the Federal Land Management agencies, launched the Every Kid in a Park initiative. The immediate goal is to provide an opportunity for each and every 4th grade student across the country to experience their federal public lands and waters in person throughout the 2015-2016 school year.

All kids in the fourth grade have access to their own Every Kid in a Park pass at www.everykidinapark.gov. This pass provides free access to national parks, national forests, national wildlife refuges, and more!

The Every Kid in a Park pass is good for the 2015-2016 school year, until August 31, 2016. Information on obtaining the pass is available by visiting www.everykidinapark.gov.

In support of Every Kid in a Park, the National Park Foundation, the official charity of America’s national parks, is raising funds to help connect fourth graders to America’s public lands and waters through transportation grants. As part of the Foundation’s Open OutDoors for Kids program, the Every Kid in a Park transportation grants seek to remove barriers to accessing our nation’s public lands and waters, with a special focus on underserved and urban communities. With cutbacks in school funding for field trips, this strategic funding will help provide comprehensive access to all federal sites, including national parks, forests, wildlife refuges and public lands and waters. Transportation grants were recently awarded to the federal agencies participating in the program which include the National Park Service, Forest Service, Army Corps of Engineers, Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Reclamation, and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Readers’ Theatre, Grades 2-4

Readers’ Theatre is a type of drama performed by “readers” who read from a script and do not have to memorize lines.  It can be not only a great introduction to theatre for kids, but it’s also a great way to practice one’s oral reading skills, build confidence, and have fun with friends! This summer, Miss Sara is leading a Readers’ Theatre Club for students entering grades 2-4.  Each week participants will play theatre games, tackle scripts based on well-known children’s books, and make crafts to supplement the stories we’re telling together.  Each meeting will culminate with a performance for family and friends.  While this is a drop-off program, parents/caregivers are asked to return 15 minutes before the end of each class (at 3:45) so they can see the show! Students must be fluent readers who have completed first grade.  Registration is required.
