Several of our 8th grade boys found another thing that brings them together: BUZZ CUTS! We love seeing even silly adventures that unify our students and make them feel like they are "in this together!" Oh...and our very own Mr. Nelson joined them in their endeavor! #palmermiddle #buzzcut #8thgradeaventures #amazingteachers #palmerbulldogs



Mrs. Reid's 6th grade ELA class was learning about Figurative Language. They participated in a fun "Easter Egg" hunt, because figurative language is like finding "easter eggs" in the text (messages, hints, clues, and teasers in content). #palmermiddle #creativeteachers #figurativelanguage #palmerbulldogs

Palmer Middle School Counselor, Mr. Anderson, spent the past week giving "Be Kind" lessons with all students in all grade levels. He spoke with students about spreading kindness, preventing bullying and harassment, the negative impact of rudeness/meanness, and taking responsibility for being nice and showing compassion. Let's make this a great year and "BE KIND!" #bekind #palmermiddle #counselortime #focusonhealthyliving #wecareabouteveryone #palmerbulldogs
