Welcome to Carthage Middle School!
Thank you so much for welcoming me as your principal and athletic director! I'm really proud to continue working with all of you in the years ahead. We had a fantastic school year in 2024 - 2025, and we're excitedly preparing for an even better 2025 - 2026 school year together! One of the biggest changes this year is that every student will attend 10 periods each day, and we'll no longer have different schedules on different days to keep things simple. Our courses will include ELA, Literacy, Math, Science, Social Studies, P.E., an elective, and study hall. During study hall, students can participate in additional enrichment activities, like band, which is such a wonderful opportunity! If you haven't yet joined Rooms through our App, I encourage you to do so before the school year begins. This will be our primary way of communicating, and we want to ensure you don't miss any important updates. In August, you'll receive messages from Rooms that will notify you just like an email; we shared this feedback with the company, and they’re on it! In the meantime, I hope you enjoy a wonderful summer filled with fun and relaxation alongside your friends and family. I genuinely look forward to seeing you all again in August, if not before!
Warmly,
Mrs. Mindy Bockenfeld
