1 August 7, 2018 Dear Parents and Students: We hope that you all had a wonderful and relaxing summer vacation. Our staff has planned an exciting school year and we look forward to an amazing educational journey with you this year. At Paulding Middle School, our mission is to engage, challenge and inspire our students by creating dynamic learning experiences that prepare them to be successful citizens. In line with our school mission we strive to academically prepare our students for the future and to foster the virtues necessary for good citizenship. For the staff and students at Paulding, we believe in a growth mind set; meaning that skills and abilities are things that you develop with hard work and persistence. To grow, students need to move outside of their comfort zone and experience successes and failures in a healthy, safe learning environment. We encourage you to keep informed of important school events by visiting our school webpage and following us on Facebook. At Paulding, we know that learning is a partnership between parents, students, school and community. Thank you for your support in our mission to provide an engaging, challenging and inspiring education to the students at Paulding. On the following page you will find some useful information regarding the first day of school on Thursday, August 16. Sincerely, Edward J, Arrigoni,
