Middle School University

Designed for middle school students and their parents, the will offer an exciting new program called Middle School University (MSU). MSU begins Thursday at Hazelwood East Middle School, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Current fifth-grade students and their parents are also welcome to attend the program. A light dinner will be served at 6:00 p.m. and child care will be available.

MSU is an interactive program where parents and students will study, learn and have fun together. Parents will develop increased knowledge of the relationship between setting goals and ensuring a successful and positive educational future for their children. MSU will highlight the relationship between reading and children’s academic success. Parents will give strength to their child’s journey and they will learn about enrichment programs and career explorations. MSU will establish a network of parents who share in the interest of their children’s education and future. Parents will also gain knowledge of “life after middle school.”

The MSU program also links to a HSD Value – “We will commit to implementing innovative solutions while dismantling ideas that are no longer working for students.”
