Middle school takes learning to a whole new level! It is one of the most important transitions students make during their academic careers. Successfully navigating the transition is essential for excellence at the middle school level.
That is why Durham Public Schools is sponsoring two sessions designed to help parents... of current fifth-graders feel more comfortable about this important move. If you have questions about what this transition will be like for your child, plan to attend one of two Making the Move to Middle Schools parent workshops.
They will be held on Thursday, May 7, and Thursday, May 14 at 7:00 pm at DPS Staff Development Center, 2107 Hillandale Road.
There will be middle school principals, teachers and counselors on hand to help you understand more about the middle school years.
Be sure to register by contacting Theresa McGowan (contact information listed below) or by filling out the online registration form:
