Fundraising Update!

We’ve started our fall fundraiser and your involvement is needed more than ever! Money raised from this fundraiser directly impacts your child by providing funds to pay for trips, resources and other materials and incentives. Please know that your assistance this year in particular will make a huge difference! Take just a moment to visit www.ShopFund.com where you can easily create and share your fundraiser with friends and family!

Check out this contest we are running this weekend!

Attendance Contest!

Parent-Teacher Conferences

Please use this link to sign up for Parent Teacher Conferences. All sign up links will be deactivated on Monday at 3:00 pm so our teachers can plan their schedules and prepare.

Snap! Connect

Snap Connect is the culmination of years of careful, thoughtful collaboration, passionate advocacy for more inclusive communities, and the ongoing development of a solution to empower families to drive growth and success for their children. While partnering with districts and schools across the country, we have learned about the primary barriers to engagement for families (access, language, and literacy) and have created a flexible mobile/web-based family engagement solution that overcomes each of those barriers. Snap Connect enables districts, schools, and families to build powerful relationships with one another and equitably build inclusive communities.

We have launched this and ask that you be on the lookout for an email invitation to sign up!

8th Grade Washington D.C. Trip

We are excited to announce that we will be taking our 8th grade students to Gettysburg and Washington D.C. with Stevenson and Franklin Middle School.

We have three buses reserved. The trip will be first come, first served. Once we fill one bus, students will be waitlisted to ensure we can fill a second bus. The waitlisted student’s trip will be confirmed once bus two fills. The same process will be in place for bus three. If we can not fill bus two or three, those waitlisted will be refunded. This is why it is very important to reserve your spot as soon as possible. You can do that here.

Please be on the look-out for fundraising information to come home in the next week or so. The more you fundraise, the less you will pay towards the cost of the trip.

Athletic Events

We love the support our students have shown this year at our home athletic events. If your child is attending an event, please remind him our her of the following.

  • Students are not permitted to hang out in the building or on school property while waiting for the athletic contest to begin. Doors do not open for the game until 15 minutes prior to the start time, which in most cases is a full hour after school dismisses.
  • Students are expected to follow all school expectations during the event.
  • If students leave during the event, they are not permitted back into the building.
  • If your child is not in school the day of the event, they are not permitted at the game.
  • Your child will need to be picked up promptly at the end of the game or leave as permitted to walk home

Family Resource Center

Wayne-Westland Community Schools has a Family Resource Center (FRC), which provides services to any student/family enrolled in our District, free of cost. Some of the services they provide are: basic need assistance, access to over 600 local resources, Laundry Assistance Program and material items for those unable to afford them (emergency toiletries, socks/underwear, hats/gloves/scarves, etc.) They are also able to supply school supplies and backpacks year round for any WWCS student.

Our FRC also has a Digital Request for Services Form, which can be used to request assistance by filling out a simple form.

OK2Say Presentation – September 16, 2022

We believe Adams Middle School is safe, but no community is immune from the threats of violence and drugs that endanger students and schools in Michigan. To address those concerns and to prepare your child for his or her part in staying safe, Adams is hosting an OK2SAY program for our students on September 16, 2022.

OK2SAY is a student safety initiative available to Michigan students in grades K−12 which enables students to confidentially report potential harm or criminal activities aimed at students, teachers, staff, or other school employees.

The nationally recognized program is run through the Michigan State Police, state agencies, schools, local law enforcement, and community mental health. Tips can be submitted 24-hours-a-day, 7-days-a-week.

  •       Telephone: 8-555-OK2SAY (855-565-2729)
  •       Text: 652729 (OK2SAY)
  •       Email: ok2say@mi.gov
  •       Website: ok2say.com
  •       OK2SAY Mobile app: Available in the Apple Store or Google Play.

OK2SAY tips have helped thousands of students and saved many lives because students are stepping up and speaking out when they are concerned about a friend or peer. There are 31 tip categories to choose from when submitting a confidential tip. Most tips were related to bullying, cyberbullying, self-harm, anxiety, stress and depression, and suicide. Other top tips include drug/alcohol use, weapon possession, or assault.

Upon receipt of a tip, specially trained OK2SAY technicians address the immediate need and forward the information to the appropriate responding law enforcement agency or organization. Tips go to schools, local law enforcement agencies, community mental health agencies or the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. 

To ensure tips are acted upon, agencies receiving tips are asked to submit outcome reports detailing how the tip was handled. Annual reports on the program’s impact detail the types and numbers of tips handled. Annual reports are available on the OK2SAY website.

More information is available on the OK2SAY website (ok2say.com).

If you do not want your child to participate in the OK2Say program, please email eatone@wwcsd.net.

Adams Tardy Policy

As we settle in to routines at Adams, we expect that students arrive to class on time. Five minutes is plenty of time to use the bathroom and take care of what is needed while still arriving to class on time. Here are the consequences we have shared with students in the event that they have four or more tardies each week. Although tardies reset weekly, consequences are progressive.

8th Grade Trip

This year, we will be offering our 8th graders an opportunity to travel to Washington D.C. Please join us on September 19, 2022 to learn more about this. The meeting will be held virtually. The meeting link will be shared prior to the event.

Community Eligibility Provision

Wayne-Westland Community Schools will be participating in a new option available to schools as part of the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Program called the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for the school year 2022-2023

The GREAT NEWS is that ALL students enrolled at our school are eligible to receive a healthy breakfast and lunch at school at NO CHARGE to your household each day of the 2022-2023 school year.

We are asking that you fill out and sign the Application for Household Information Report which is located on the Meal Magic Family Portal.   This form is needed for administrative purposes, not to determine eligibility. This survey allows our school to benefit from various State and Federal supplemental programs like Title I A, At Risk (31s), Title II A, E -Rate, etc. This survey is critical in determining the amount of money the school receives from a variety of supplemental programs. We are asking that you please complete and submit it as soon as possible. Once filled out, please submit a hard copy to the main office of your school.

If we can be of any further assistance, please contact our Food Services Department at 734-419-2118.

 

Schedule Changes

We work very hard to create schedules based on student elective choices and academic needs.  We will not honor any schedule changes after the first week of school and will only make changes during week one for the following reasons:
  • Your student has previously taken the class
  • Health reasons
  • Academic misplacement (i.e. if your student was placed in the wrong class such as an advanced class)
Schedules will not be changed for the following reasons:
  • Student does not like the teacher
  • Student wants to be with friends
  • Student wants a different lunch period
  • Student feels the teacher gives too much work
  • Student wants to change class because he/she does not want to do the class work or has not done the reading/required work.

If you have questions about your child’s schedule, you will be required to schedule an in-person or phone appointment with your child’s counselor. Thank you for understanding.

Welcome Back!

Dear Families,

We are looking forward to welcoming our students back to school in just a couple of short weeks!  This memo is filled with important information. Please take the time to read all sections so you are up to date with current information and understand what needs to be completed prior to school beginning.

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to one of us directly at eatone@wwcsd.net or bukoskysm@wwcsd.net.

Sincerely,

Erin Eaton & Stacie Bukosky

Meet the Principals

My name is Erin Eaton and I serve as the Principal of Adams Middle School. My educational career began as a teacher in 2004. I was hired after graduating from Eastern Michigan University by the Gibraltar School District. I spent fourteen years as a teacher in the district teaching Young Five’s, Kindergarten, 2nd Grade, and 3rd grade. In 2007, I received my Master’s Degree in teaching from Marygrove College, and in 2018 received my Specialist in Education degree from Central Michigan University. Through this program, I obtained my administrative certificate. In 2018 I was hired by WWCS to serve as the Assistant Principal of Adams Upper Elementary, moving into the principal role in 2019 where I have remained since, as we transitioned to a middle school.

My husband and I have two middle school children. Our daughter is entering 6th grade, and our son 8th. I have recently started coaching softball again for my daughter’s travel team, something I love doing and have missed. We love English Bulldogs and have Jones, a two year old, and recently adopted Dennis, an eight year old.

I look forward to a fantastic year as your partner in your child’s educational journey. I can be reached at eatone@wwcsd.net at any time with questions you have about Adams.

 

My name is Stacie Bukosky and I am your child’s Assistant Principal. I have been an educator for 12 years. I earned my Bachelor’s degree from EMU and my Master’s degree in Educational Leadership from Concordia University. As a teacher, I taught English/Language Arts (ELA). I taught at Franklin Middle School, then took the leap to teach High School at Wayne Memorial. I have always been highly involved in the Wayne-Westland school community. I immersed myself in coaching, committees, student events, and educational opportunities. In 2019, I interviewed to be the Assistant Principal at Wayne Memorial and was awarded the position. I absolutely love being a building leader. I enjoy working with the students and hearing their stories. I am passionate about guiding our youth in a positive direction.

I am married and have three children. My girls both graduated in 2022 and have started college. I have a daughter attending the University of Tennessee, and another attending Grand Valley State University. My son will be a junior in High school. We have a dog, she is a shorkie. Her name is June and she is definitely spoiled.

I can be reached by email at bukoskysm@wwcsd.net or by phone at (734) 419-2375. I am excited to be working with the students at Adams, and I look forward to a wonderful school year with you and your child.

Material Distribution Days

Chromebooks and schedules will be distributed on August 18/19, 2022. We will also have Lifetouch onsite taking fall pictures. The building will not be open for touring at this time. We will have Open House (information below) to allow you and your student to tour the building prior to school starting. Please complete the technology agreement form found here to expedite Chromebook distribution prior to material distribution. Thank you!

Schedule Changes

We work very hard to create schedules based on student elective choices and academic needs.  We will not honor any schedule changes after the first week of school and will only make changes during week one for the following reasons:
  • Your student has previously taken the class
  • Health reasons
  • Academic misplacement (i.e. if your student was placed in the wrong class such as an advanced class)
Schedules will not be changed for the following reasons:
  • Student does not like the teacher
  • Student wants to be with friends
  • Student wants a different lunch period
  • Student feels the teacher gives too much work
  • Student wants to change class because he/she does not want to do the class work or has not done the reading/required work.

Our counselors will be very busy assisting with material distribution at our Open House, and will not have time to discuss schedules during these events. If you have questions about your child’s schedule, you will be required to schedule an in-person or phone appointment with your child’s counselor. Thank you for understanding.

  • Only one family member (with the exception of small children) will be allowed into the building to sign a student out of the building early
  • Anyone entering the building must show their ID at the entrance and then again at the main office
  • All family must remain in the main office until the child reports to the office ready to leave
  • No one will be permitted into the halls or classrooms without signing in, being issued a badge and having a proper background check completed

Recap – Tasks to complete prior to August 29, 2022

  • Log into Parent Connection (Click here for Directions) and update all current student enrollments 
  • Complete the Application for Household Information Report which is located on the Meal Magic Family Portal
  • Pay all fines owed to WWCSD here

Wrapping up the School Year

We understand that students are looking ahead to summer and are enjoying the warm temperatures and sunshine that have finally arrived! Warm weather and the month of June often bring behavior issues to school, so we are sharing a few reminders.

Students are expected to follow all expectations until the final bell on June 10, 2022. If students cannot follow our expectations, they will be suspended from school. We will not tolerate rudeness or disrespect towards staff or students, hands on one another, disruptive behavior in classrooms, students on cell phones or any other violation of our PBIS matrix and expectations.
