Menomonie Middle School Announcements –
Patriot Day: Menomonie Middle School remembers those who lost their lives, those who stepped up to serve, and the countless sacrifices made in the days, months and years after the attacks. Today we had a moment of silence to honor and remember those who were lost on 9/11.
Crochet Club: Are you looking for something to do before school or looking to learn a new skill? Join crochet club! Crochet is a skill that uses yarn to create things like hats, scarves, or whatever you want. No experience necessary! Crochet club meets in the band room before school at 7:15am on Mondays and Wednesdays starting today.
Self-Care Club: The Bridge to hope will be running a self-care club starting September 12th during WIN in room 740. All are welcome. Come have snacks, learn fun ways to manage stress, build self-esteem, play games and make new friends! If you are interested in signing up, please visit your grade level counselor for a sign-up form!
Student Council: The first Student Council meeting will be on Thursday, September 14th at 7am in the library. Anyone interested in joining can attend.
YEP: The Youth Empowerment (YEP) is a middle school group that will meet weekly after school on Tuesdays in the health room from 3 – 4:30 starting September 19th. The goal of the group is to provide middle school students with drug prevention programming and opportunities to learn new skills like leadership and public speaking while making a positive impact in their communities. We provide an opportunity for them to have an after-school snack, make new friends, and spend time with old one in a fund and positive environment. YEP members have participated in activities like creating flyers and informative videos, practicing skits to perform for elementary audiences, and enjoyed group trips to Action City and the bowling alley. Where the group goes next depends on suggestions from our members.
