South Brunswick Middle School100 Cougar Road, BSLSouthport, NC 28461October 23, 2009RE: The Parent PageDear Parents: South Brunswick Middle School has recently implemented an academic model for parental involvement that will provide our teachers, students, and families with valuable materials. These resources were designed to help your child achieve success in the classroom.Research continues to support the theory that an involved parent makes a huge difference in a student’s academic achievement. Our goal is to involve you in your child’s education. We are providing you with “The Parent Page”, on our school website. This site is filled valuable parenting articles and information to assist both you and your student. The site is also filled with hundreds of meaningful and appropriate activities within the areas of math, reading, language arts, and science.Many parents have told us that they do not know how to help their children with some of their homework. Click on Tutorials below and then choose your student’s grade level and the subject in which you wish to work. The activities are meant to give you the ability to understand the concepts, as well as a quick refresher on these important learning objectives. The activities were written with parents in mind; you do not have to be a subject expert to help your child complete the activities. For those activities requiring materials, most are common items that can be found in the home. Experts in their respective fields wrote our library of articles. Please review at your convenience and let us know your thoughts on these articles and suggestions for future articles. Not only will this allow you to contribute to your child’s education, but it will also make you aware of areas that your child may need help or benefit from enrichment. Ensuring that your children master the important foundation skills will help them become confident and successful students.We are excited about your child’s success and welcome any questions you may have. We encourage you to check out “The Parent Page” as soon as possible! Sincerely, Brockton Ahrens, Principal, South Brunswick Middle School
