Meadowdale Middle School
Community Growth Purpose
At MMS, we focus on three core values:
Community – MMS is a large community made up of many smaller communities, such as our
houses, classrooms, homerooms, clubs, athletic teams, and other formal and informal groups. We
strive for inclusivity and accountability to one another in our words and our actions.
Growth – Each school year provides numerous opportunities for growth, where we gain not
only new academic skills and content, but also develop personal skills like conflict resolution,
resiliency, and perseverance. We encourage everyone in our community to embrace these
opportunities, and to seek and accept help when it is needed.
Purpose – Middle school is a time of great change, and can be the perfect opportunity to
explore who you really are and what you hope to accomplish in life. We explore our core values
and future goals, and work to make sure the things we do put us on the path to success.
MMS Students = Growing as Independent Learners One focus of our school’s work is to support students in their growth as independent learners. We do
this through activities in Homeroom, regular practices in our classes, and through various support
programs, like our Career and College Readiness Program.

The Meadowdale Middle School Recognition & Reward System Students at MMS are recognized for demonstrating commitment to community, growth, and purpose.
This includes academic growth as well as personal growth. There are a variety of ways students can be
rewarded:
Academic Reward System - Students who earn a 3.0 GPA or better on their quarterly report card earn a
reward, which may include Gym Homeroom, Free Treat Friday, Homeroom Social, or others.
Students can earn up to four rewards per year.
MMS Club Cards - Students with a 3.0 GPA or above receive Club Cards providing student
discounts at local businesses.
Wild Waves – 8th grade students who earn a 3.0 GPA or better each quarter in their 8th grade
year and who have no significant discipline issues earn a trip to Wild Waves in June. Students
who demonstrate significant growth in their GPA over the year may also be considered.
Kudos - Students whose words or actions show their commitment to community, growth, and/or
purpose can be given a Kudos ticket from any adult on campus. Kudos should go home for a
parent/guardian signature and can then be exchanged for a ticket for a monthly prize drawing.
House-Based Reward System - All students are arranged into one of five different houses at MMS,
made up of seventh and eighth graders. In addition to community-building and mentorship, the
purpose of the houses is to encourage students’ positive academic and social behaviors through
the earning of points and providing short- and long-term rewards based on those points.
Student of the Month – Each month, several students are selected who are doing an outstanding job
academically and personally. They receive a certificate and have their photo displayed in the
school.
Community/Growth/Purpose Awards - Students demonstrating commitment to community, growth,
and purpose are selected quarterly by teachers and recognized at an assembly or on MVN, our
morning announcements.
End-of-Year Recognition – At our last assembly of the year, we recognized students who have
demonstrated growth and/or outstanding performance in our different academic areas, as well as
recognizing other students who have earned other academic or community awards.

Arrival and Dismissal at MMS
School hours are 8:00-2:30 daily. MMS is a closed campus; once students have arrived on campus,
they must remain on campus until school is over or they are picked up by a parent/guardian.
By 2:40, students are expected to be working with teachers, attending an after-school activity (sports
or clubs), or on their way home. Students who attend Study Club or other activity need to stay with
that teacher until the bell rings at 3:30. Students are not to loiter in the building or around campus.
On half days, school hours are from 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM.
Attendance and Tardiness
On-time, daily attendance is key to students’ academic growth. Studies have shown that students
missing more than 10% of the school year (just two days a month) are more likely to fall behind
academically and less likely to graduate from high school. A student’s absence must be excused
within 48 hours upon their return to school. This may be done by having a parent/guardian send a
note to the attendance office; call the attendance office at (425) 431-4302; or email attendance secretary
Jenny Craig at [email protected].
Students more than 15 minutes tardy to any period are considered absent for that period.
Students who are more than 5 minutes late to school, or who have an early dismissal, MUST check
in and out at the attendance desk.
Students are expected to be in class when the bell rings and will be marked tardy if they are not.
When a student accumulates 4 tardies in a quarter, they will be assigned a consequence such as after-
school detention. Additional tardies in the quarter will result in additional consequences.
Homeroom
Homeroom is the first 40 minutes of each day of the week, except for Friday, and it is critical that all
students attend the entire time. It is an important part of the day, as this is when announcements are
made; students have the opportunity to organize and plan their school work; students can work on school
work and see teachers; we do our social-emotional curriculum; and many other important activities.
Student Coursework and Grades
In addition to regular attendance, another key to success in middle school is demonstrating
understanding on all classwork, homework and assessments.
Students should use this planner or an online calendar to keep track of all assignments and due dates.
If a student has an excused absence, they have the ability to make up the missed work or
tests/quizzes for the day(s). It is the student’s responsibility to look at the teacher’s online platform
and talk to their teacher and classmates about what they have missed.
Late work for a particular unit will not be accepted more than one week beyond the end of that unit.
Online Coursework Access and Grade Reporting
There are several online platforms accessible to students and their families to see classroom resources
and assignments and student grades.
Classroom resources and assignments can be found on the teachers’ Canvas, Google Classroom, or
Amplify (science only) sites. If a student is absent, these are the best places to check for missed
work.
Skyward is the district’s grade reporting program and is viewable to students and families via
website or phone app. It is most helpful for seeing grades on past assignments and any assignments
that are missing.
Chromebooks
All students at MMS are assigned a Chromebook for use at school and at home for school work.
Students should bring their charged Chromebook to school every day.
Students are expected to use the Chromebook for academic purposes only and should assume
that their Internet and documents are viewable by school staff at any time. More information
about these expectations is on the school website at https://mms.wednet.edu/chromebooks.
Students are responsible for the care of their Chromebook and families are encouraged to enroll
in the optional insurance. More information about the expectations for care and the insurance can
be found on the school website link above.
Finding Help and Support at MMS
There are many ways to get help at MMS in order to support students’ academic and personal growth.
For academic help, teachers are available during homeroom and hold after-school Study Club on
certain days. Students may attend Study Club any day it is held or some teachers may assign it if
a student needs extra help. Students and families may also email teachers directly; all contact
information is on the school website.
For social-emotional support or for larger academic questions, students and families can contact
their counselor or IEP or ELL case manager. For students with the last name A-L, their counselor
can be reached at (425) 431-4303. For M-Z last names, Rachel Hyde-Prieto can be reached at
(425) 431-4304.
For connections to financial resources through various community organizations, contact Jacque
Julien, Student Support Advocate, at (425) 431-4305.
The school nurse is Cindy Goergen. She is at school on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and can be
reached at (425) 431-1711.
Extra-Curricular Activities
Another key to student success in middle school is getting involved in extra-curricular activities. These
are a great way to pursue interests and meet new people, and we encourage all students to try at least one
extra-curricular activity per year.
Clubs
We offer numerous clubs after school, representing a wide variety of groups and interests.
Clubs usually start running in late September and go through the end of the year. Students
interested in forming a club should see Mrs. Schumacher for information.
Anyone is welcome to attend any club meeting. Membership in clubs is maintained simply by
attendance at club meetings – there is no cost.
Clubs meet one day per week, from 2:40-3:30. An up-to-date list of our clubs, their meeting
dates and locations can be found on our school website.
Sports
There are four sports seasons during the school year. Some of our sports require a tryout, while others
are open to anyone who wants to participate. More information can be found on our school website.
The sports are:
Fall Winter 1 Winter 2 Spring
Girls fastpitch
softball*
Cross
Country
Football – 8th
grade only
Boys and girls
soccer*
Boys
basketball*
Girls
volleyball*
Girls

Wrestling
Track
Sports with an * require a tryout if the # of students who want to participate exceeds the # of spots on the team.
Students need all paperwork and an up-to-date physical on file in order to participate in any
practices, tryouts, and events. This paperwork and other information can be found on our school
website.
Students need to pay a pay-to-play fee for each sport they participate in, and need to have all
fines and fees cleared in order to participate in games and meets. There is also an academic
standard that must be maintained in order to participate in practices and contests.
Students and their families are welcome to attend any of our sports games and meets. There is no
cost to attend. All sporting events are listed on our school website calendar, on our morning
announcements, and on bulletin boards around school.
Music Performances and the School Musical
We have an excellent music program at MMS and there are numerous events at the school and in the
community throughout the year that showcase our students’ talents.
We have various choir, band, and orchestra concerts throughout the year. All events are listed on
our school calendar and are free to attend unless otherwise noted.
We do one school musical a year, usually after winter break. All MMS students are encouraged
to try out for one of the on-stage roles or to participate as part of the crew. Performances will be
listed on our school website calendar; there is a fee for students and families to attend, and these
performances usually sell out!
All MMS rules and expectations apply at extra-curricular events and activities!
MMS Expectations for Student Behavior
In order to keep our community a safe place for learning, students are responsible for following the
expectations below at all times while on campus, including before and after school, in classrooms,
hallways, the commons, and in our outside spaces. The same expectations are in place as students wait
for or ride our district’s school buses.
Be kind to one another. Pay attention to how your words and actions impact others. Students
using demeaning language about others’ race/ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender
identity, disability, socioeconomic status or appearance will face disciplinary action.
Monitor your physical space and volume. Keep the spaces you use clean.
Move safely. Walk and keep hands, feet, and objects to yourself. Public displays of affection
beyond hand-holding are not permitted.
Gum is not permitted at MMS, and food or drink (with the exception of bottled water) is not
allowed in classrooms. Food deliveries made to students from companies like UberEats will not
be accepted.
Students participating in or found to have instigated a physical or verbal fight will face
disciplinary action. This includes recording and/or distributing images of a fight, failing to
disperse from the scene of a fight, or failing to report a fight the student has become aware of.
Riding the Bus
Students are expected to behave on the bus in the same way they are expected to behave in the
classroom. Students are to remain seated, use appropriate language and volume, and treat students
and drivers with courtesy and respect. The bus driver’s primary purpose and responsibility is to get
students to and from school safely. Bus rider behavior that distracts or disrespects the bus driver will
not be tolerated. Specific rules and regulations can be found in ESD Board Policy 8245-R1.
Violations of board policy regarding behavior while waiting for or riding ESD transportation may be
grounds for suspension or removal from the bus.
Study Club Bus – MMS offers after-school transportation Monday-Thursday at 3:40. This bus is
provided for students who have made arrangements to work after school with teachers or stay for
clubs, Study Club, detention or extracurricular activities. The bus follows a specific, pre-determined
route serving all 6 of our feeder elementary school neighborhoods.
Athletics Bus – MMS also has a bus available after sport practices at 4:40, following the same route
as the study club bus. There is no transportation home from the school after games; families must
arrange their own.
Clothing at MMS
Students are expected to dress for success in order to support the positive learning environment and to
meet health and safety standards.
Success means: Students wear clothing so that buttocks, midriffs, or undergarments (with the
exception of bra straps and waistbands) are not exposed. Clothing on the front side of the body must
begin no lower than four fingers’ width below the collarbone. Backless/strapless clothing will not be
tolerated. Any clothing or accessories with words or pictures advertising drugs, alcohol,
vapor/tobacco products, or weapons will not be permitted. Students will be required to change into
different clothing or modify/remove clothing items to meet the dress code.
Safety means: No item may be worn which would create or tend to create a hostile environment for
any other student due to that other student’s gender, race, national origin, cultural or national
heritage or religion. Clothing (including shoes) must be suitable for all scheduled classroom
activities including physical education, science labs, STEM/Gateway, and other activities where
unique hazards exist. Specialized courses may require specialized attire, such as sports uniforms or
safety gear. Hats may be worn outside the classroom during non-instructional time and in class with
teacher permission. Hoods, bandanas, masks, etc. are to be left at home or off the head at all times
while on campus. Head coverings worn for religious purposes are allowed. Sunglasses may not be
worn during school hours unless required for medical reasons (specified by a doctor’s note). Jewelry
or chains that may be used as a weapon present a safety issue and are not allowed on campus.
Electronic Devices
So that our classroom and hallways can be communities dedicated to learning, personal electronic
devices (phones, iPods, earbuds, Airpods, etc.) may not be used or visible during instructional time. This
includes having them out when in the hall or other areas of the school during instructional time.
The first violation of this expectation will result in the phone being confiscated and sent to the office
for the remainder of the day. Subsequent offenses will result in the phone being returned to a parent
or guardian.
Arguments or refusals to surrender electronic devices that are in violation of this policy will be
considered acts of insubordination and may result in school discipline.
Phones used in the locker rooms or restrooms will be treated as a 2nd offense.
Students are not allowed to photograph or record others without their permission, and may be subject
to discipline and confiscation of the device for doing so.
Personal speakers are not allowed at MMS during the school day.
It is strongly recommended that students leave electronic devices at home to prevent loss and
distraction. Lost, misplaced or stolen electronic devices are rarely recovered. MMS is not liable for
any electronic devices that are lost or stolen at school.
MMS is a school community that prioritizes the safety and well-being of all of its members.
Below you will find information about some of the most serious violations of our expectations,
the various reporting options, and the consequences that will be put in place as a result.
Safe Schools Alert
You and your child can easily report tips on bullying, harassment, drugs, vandalism or any safety
issue you're concerned about through Safe Schools Alert.
We strongly encourage you to frequently remind students to report any safety concerns directly
to a trusted adult at home or at school. Still, we know that when students become aware of
unsafe people or situations, it can be very difficult for some to report as they are fearful or feel
pressure from others to keep things secret. We want students to help us keep their schools safe,
and to break any “code of silence” if one exists, with respect to matters that can impact the
safety of their schools.
You can share concerns with district staff in 4 different ways:
Phone: 425-551-7393 Text: 425-551-7393
Email: [email protected] Web: http://1480.alert1.us
Weapons
The staff and student body will not tolerate the possession of any weapons or other dangerous
objects on campus. Edmonds School District Board Policy #8220 (Section III, Exceptional
Misconduct), RCW 9.41.250, RCW 9.41.280 prohibit the possession of weapons or other
dangerous objects, including toy or facsimile weapons, on school property.
Please see the Handbook section of our school website at
https://mms.edmonds.wednet.edu/handbook to see the types of weapons and consequences for
possession.
Alcohol, Tobacco/E-Cigarettes, Drugs, Illegal Substances
The Edmonds School District recognizes that the use/abuse and possession of alcohol, controlled,
illegal, addictive, or harmful substance(s), including anabolic steroids, is a societal problem and may
represent an impairment to the normal development, well-being, and academic performance of
students. To ensure the safety, health, and well-being of all students, the district has developed
programs that emphasize prevention, intervention, aftercare support, and necessary corrective
actions. The district also recognizes the effects to the school, home, and community resulting from
drug and alcohol use/abuse. While the primary obligation to seek assistance rests with the student
and his/her parent(s)/guardian(s), school staff shall work with the home and community to develop
and implement a comprehensive prevention and intervention program. Part of the responsibility of
the school and School District is to inform students and parents each year of the District's policy on
drugs/alcohol.
Please see the Handbook section of our school website at
https://mms.edmonds.wednet.edu/handbook to see the full policy.
Harassment, Intimidation and Bullying
It is the intent of the students and staff in the Edmonds School District to create an environment for
learning and work that promotes and values respect, diversity and trust. Individuals have the right to
be treated with respect and dignity, and have the responsibility to treat others the same way.
Please see the Handbook section of our school website at
https://mms.edmonds.wednet.edu/handbook to see the definition and types of Harassment,
Intimidation, and Bullying.
Reporting Incidents of Harassment, Intimidation, Bullying - Students, parents and volunteers are
encouraged to report incidents of harassment, intimidation or bullying to the appropriate school
official. To report an incident, students, parents, and volunteers can report directly to school staff or
they may use the Harassment, Intimidation and Bullying Reporting Form. Disciplinary action
will be taken to address the behavior or the perpetrator. No school district employee, student, or
volunteer may engage in reprisal, retaliation, or false accusation against a victim, witness, or one
with reliable information about an act of harassment, intimidation, or bullying. False reports or
retaliation will receive consequences.
Students who engage in harassment as defined will be subject to school discipline including and up
to suspension or expulsion from school.
Sexual Harassment of Students Prohibited
This district is committed to a positive and productive education free from discrimination, including
sexual harassment. This commitment extends to all students involved in academic, educational,
extracurricular, athletic, and other programs or activities of the school, whether that program or activity
is in a school facility, on school transportation or at a class or school training held elsewhere.
Definitions
For purposes of this policy, sexual harassment means unwelcome conduct or communication of a sexual
nature. Sexual harassment can occur adult to student, student to student or can be carried out by a group
of students or adults and will be investigated by the district even if the alleged harasser is not a part of
the school staff or student body. The district prohibits sexual harassment of students by other students,
employees or third parties involved in school district activities.
Under federal and state law, the term “sexual harassment” may include:
• acts of sexual violence;
• unwelcome sexual or gender-directed conduct or communication that interferes with an individual’s
educational performance or creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment;
• unwelcome sexual advances;
• unwelcome requests for sexual favors;
• sexual demands when submission is a stated or implied condition of obtaining an educational benefit;
• sexual demands where submission or rejection is a factor in an academic, or other school-related
decision affecting an individual.
A “hostile environment” has been created for a student when sexual harassment is sufficiently serious to
interfere with or limit the student’s ability to participate in or benefit from the school’s program. The
more severe the conduct, the less need there is to demonstrate a repetitive series of incidents. In fact, a
single or isolated incident of sexual harassment may create a hostile environment if the incident is
sufficiently severe, violent, or egregious.
Investigation and Response
If the district knows, or reasonably should know, that sexual harassment has created a hostile
environment, it will promptly investigate to determine what occurred and take appropriate steps to
resolve the situation. If an investigation reveals that sexual harassment has created a hostile
environment, the district will take prompt and effective steps reasonably calculated to end the sexual
harassment, eliminate the hostile environment, prevent its recurrence and as appropriate, remedy its
effects. The district will take prompt, equitable and remedial action within its authority on reports,
complaints and grievances alleging sexual harassment that come to the attention of the district, either
formally or informally. The district will take these steps every time a complaint, alleging sexual
harassment comes to the attention of the district, either formally or informally.
Allegations of criminal misconduct will be reported to law enforcement and suspected child abuse will
be reported to law enforcement or Child Protective Services. Regardless of whether the misconduct is
reported to law enforcement, school staff will promptly investigate to determine what occurred and take
appropriate steps to resolve the situation, to the extent that such investigation does not interfere with an
ongoing criminal investigation. A criminal investigation does not relieve the district of its independent
obligation to investigate and resolve sexual harassment.
Engaging in sexual harassment will result in appropriate discipline or other appropriate sanctions against
offending students, staff or other third parties involved in school district activities. Anyone else who
engages in sexual harassment on school property or at school activities will have their access to school
property and activities restricted, as appropriate.
Retaliation and False Allegations
Retaliation against any person who makes or is a witness in a sexual harassment complaint is prohibited
and will result in appropriate discipline. The district will take appropriate actions to protect involved
persons from retaliation.
It is a violation of this policy to knowingly report false allegations of sexual harassment. Persons found
to knowingly report or corroborate false allegations will be subject to appropriate discipline.
Staff Responsibilities
The superintendent will develop and implement formal and informal procedures for receiving,
investigating and resolving complaints or reports of sexual harassment. The procedures will include
reasonable and prompt time lines and delineate staff responsibilities under this policy.
Any school employee who witnesses sexual harassment or receives a report, informal complaint, or
written complaint about sexual harassment is responsible for informing the district Title IX or Civil
Rights Compliance Officer. All staff are also responsible for directing complainants to the formal
complaint process.
Reports of discrimination and discriminatory harassment will be referred to the district’s Title IX/Civil
Rights Compliance Officer. Reports of disability discrimination or harassment will be referred to the
district’s Section 504 Coordinator.
Notice and Training
The superintendent will develop procedures to provide age-appropriate information and education to
district staff, students, parents and volunteers regarding this policy and the recognition and prevention of
sexual harassment. At a minimum sexual harassment recognition and prevention and the elements of this
policy will be included in staff, student and regular volunteer orientation. This policy and the procedure,
which includes the complaint process, will be posted in each district building in a place available to
staff, students, parents, volunteers and visitors. Information about the policy and procedure will be
clearly stated and conspicuously posted throughout each school building, provided to each employee and
reproduced in each student, staff, volunteer and parent handbook. Such notices will identify the
District’s Title IX Officer and provide contact information, including the Officer’s email address.
Policy Review
The superintendent will make an annual report to the board reviewing the use and efficacy of this policy
and related procedures. Recommendations for changes to this policy, if applicable, will be included in
the report. The superintendent is encouraged to involve staff, students, volunteers and parents in the
review process.
Complaint Options: Discrimination and Sexual Harassment
If you believe that you or your child have experienced unlawful discrimination, discriminatory
harassment, or sexual harassment at school, you have the right to file a complaint. Before filing a
complaint, you can discuss your concerns with your child’s principal or with the school district’s Section
504 Coordinator, Title IX Officer, or Civil Rights Coordinator, who are listed above. This is often the
fastest way to revolve your concerns.
Complaint to the School District A complaint must be in writing and include: a description of the conduct or incident; an explanation as to
why you believe discrimination, discriminatory harassment, or sexual harassment has taken place; and, a
description of what actions you believe the district should take to resolve the problem. Send your written
complaint—by mail, fax, email, or hand delivery—to the district superintendent or civil rights
compliance coordinator. In most cases, complaints must be filed within one year from the date of the
incident or conduct that is the subject of the complaint.
Once the district receives your written complaint, the coordinator will give you a copy of the complaint
procedure and make sure a prompt and thorough investigation takes place. The superintendent or
designee will respond to you in writing within 30 calendar days—unless you agree on a different time
period. If your complaint involves exceptional circumstances that demand a lengthier investigation, the
district will notify you in writing to explain why staff need a time extension and the new date for their
written response.
In its written response, the district will include: a summary of the results of the investigation; a
determination of whether or not the district failed to comply with civil rights law; notification of the
appeal process; and, any measures necessary to bring the district into compliance with civil rights laws.
Corrective measures will be put into effect within 30 calendar days after this written response—unless
you agree to a different time period.
Appeal to the School District Board of Directors
If you disagree with the school district’s decision, you may appeal to the school district’s Board of
Directors. You must file a notice of appeal in writing to the secretary of the school board within 10
calendar days after you received the school district’s response to your complaint. The board will
schedule a hearing within 20 calendar days after the appeal is received, unless you agree on a different
timeline. A written decision will be provided within 30 calendar days after the district received your
notice of appeal. The school board’s decision will include information about how to file a complaint
with the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI).
Complaint to OSPI
If you do not agree with the school district’s appeal decision, you have the option to file a formal
complaint with the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI). This is a separate complaint
process that can take place if one of these two conditions has occurred: (1) you have completed the
district’s complaint and appeal process, or (2) the district has not followed the complaint and appeal
process correctly. You have 20 calendar days to file a complaint to OSPI from the day you received the
decision on your appeal. You can send your written complaint to the Equity and Civil Rights Office at
OSPI:
