Attendance Matters!
Princeton Middle is holding the first annual Used Shoe Drive. Give your "old soles new life." We are asking for donations of gently used shoes that will be given to students in need during the month of January. There are multiple collection boxes located around the school.
Students, we are getting closer to our next attendance incentive day. It is important for students to check with Mrs. O'Dell or message her through Schoology if you have any attendance questions. To be eligible for the incentive, students must not have more than 2 unexcused absences. Any suspensions during the grading period will automatically disqualify a student from the incentive. If you have absence excuses, please be sure to turn those in next week, using one of the boxes located around the building.
Friday, January 13th will be a Re-Imagined Day for all Mercer County schools. Students will remain home and join their teachers in Teams meetings on their devices using the schedule previously provided by their school. Staff report to school on a two hour delay.
