As we move into the heart of the holiday season, I want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible work happening every day at Kelly Middle School. The first half of the school year has flown by, and our students continue to impress us with their dedication, growth, and enthusiasm for learning.

One of the highlights this semester was our Student-Led Conference Night. What an amazing evening! It was wonderful to see so many families in the building, sharing in their students’ accomplishments. Our students did an outstanding job taking ownership of their learning—articulating goals, sharing progress, and celebrating successes. Their confidence and pride were on full display, and it was clear that the learning taking place here at Kelly is both meaningful and inspiring.

As we head toward the end of the semester, I encourage all students to stay focused and finish strong. This time of year can be busy with holiday events and activities, but it’s also a perfect opportunity to review, reflect, and set new goals for the months ahead. Our teachers are continuing to challenge students with engaging lessons, hands-on projects, and opportunities to think critically and creatively.

I couldn’t be prouder of the hard work and positive energy filling our classrooms each day. Thank you to our families for your ongoing support—you play an important role in helping our students succeed. Let’s carry this momentum into the new year and continue making Kelly Middle School a place where learning thrives and every student shines.

Wishing you all a joyful and restful holiday season!
