Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Please see this month's PTA Newsletter to learn about our upcoming Trikke for the Cure event! We will also have a poster contest and several other events throughout the month. If you have any ideas to support awareness of breast cancer, please share! If there are any runners who are interested in doing Liz Hurley's Annual Breast Cancer Awareness 5K on the 17th, let me know.

October 26th is Parenting Day. After Fall Break, I will post information about our activities for that specail day. I hope you enjoy your Fall Break. Be safe!

Meeting Notice

Beginning in January, Williams Middle School will join the large number of Alabama public schools that have adopted a School Uniform Policy. This will allow for a significant cost saving for most parents on school clothes, reduce discipline problems, and allow students to express their individuality by their personality and academic achievements rather than by their style of dress. It also puts forward a strong image of Williams Middle School as a Center of Academic Excellence where students from all over Huntsville can receive a top-notch education.

We will have a parent meeting on Thursday October 1st at 6:00 pm to introduce our Uniform Policy and address your questions and concerns. This will be a fun-filled evening and include a fashion show, a building & move-in update and an introduction of our new School-Wide Reward Program to promote good behavior. This is an exciting time for our community! See you on the 1st!

Pupil-Parent Survey

On Tuesday, your child will bring home a survey that we would like for you to complete. The Huntsville City School System is entitled to certain federal monies if either mother, father or guardian of a student is employed on certain properties, in on active, full-time duty in the Uniformed Services, or if they live in a Federal Housing Project, or any combination of these requirements. Upon receiving the survey, please complete it and have your child return it to their homeroom teacher by Thursday September 10th. Thank you for your support!

See you Tuesday September 8th at 6:30 for our first PTA Meeting!!! Dinner will be served!
