Families
We at Mack believe in helping your students
gain the knowledge they need to be successful
in high school, college, military, or just even
life. However, what your student knows
isn’t always apparent based on regular
assignments. Over the next few weeks and
for the rest of the year, we will be teaching
and assessing our students differently. The
state requires our students master what are called “Standards” in every
subject. If they don’t master them, they will not have the ability to be
successful at the next level. Instead of being driven by “assignments,”
our teachers will now be more concerned with ensuring your student has
mastered the standards. The grade books on Infinite Campus might not
look the same as before. Prior to this, teachers would put assignments
in as the students completed them. Now, in many classes, the standards
will already be in the grade book. You will be able to see how well your
student is progressing on each standard. So, at the beginning of a quarter,
your students might have straight 1’s across the board because they have
not mastered any of the standards. However, as the weeks progress, once
students show their teachers they have mastered a particular standard,
you will see that mark change to a “4.” Hopefully, your students will end
each grading period by having straight “4’s” across the board. This means
they have learned what they need to learn. This new assessment will be
about giving students the opportunity to practice their skills until they are
good at them. Your student will have the opportunity to show mastery
every day in class. Before leaving, they will demonstrate their knowledge
to the teacher. If they show mastery, they are finished with that skill.
If they don’t, they will have more opportunities to practice each night.
Bottom line: if the students do well in class, they won’t have homework.
So support your student’s attention in class. It will lead to greater growth
and greater knowledge.

come into the library from 7:30 am until 8:30 am. Unless something crazy
happens, we will be there every Friday morning when there is school for

Sip service, not lip service.

MACK STUDENT COUNCIL
GOES TO DISNEY SCHOOL!
On October 2nd, 36 members of the Mack Student Council attended a class at the
Disneyland Resort in California. “Leaving a Leadership Legacy” was a three-hour course
designed to increase the leadership skills of our students. This class took place inside
California Adventure theme park, and included several rides, as well as a challenge course
that tested our students’ abilities to multitask. In addition to the three-hour class, our
students toured Disneyland and California Adventure in small groups throughout the day.
This trip was funded entirely through the efforts of our Student Council to raise money
over the past year. Students participated in a variety of fundraising efforts including
Halloween Grams and a coupon book fundraiser. Through this long-range planning
process, students were very goal-oriented, and are already planning a return trip to
Disneyland to do a different class!
CLOSED CAMPUS
Mack Middle School is a closed campus. Students are not permitted to leave campus
during the school day unless they have been issued a passport from the attendance,
deans’, or nurse’s office. Students who choose to leave campus without a passport will
be classified as truant. Students are not allowed in the parking lot during instructional
time or during lunch times. Food delivery to students is not permitted. Students may be
searched for health and safety reasons.
Students who use their digital devices to
cyber-bully other students, send inappropriate
messages such as "sexting" and plagiarize
or violate intellectual property laws will
be disciplined according to State of Nevada
and CCSD policy. The school assumes no
responsibility for the loss or theft of confiscated
items or valuables left in lockers.

Reg. #5141.1
Motto: Mavericks Acquiring College Knowledge
COUNSELING & GUIDANCE
SCHEDULE CHANGE POLICY
Students are expected to remain in courses for the entire school
year. Due to the State of Nevada Department of Education
Guidelines, no student may change a class or receive credit after
the third week of the semester. Requests for schedule changes
are considered only for the following reasons:
Procure tener una selección de alimentos saludables a mano
que le brinden a su hijo la energía que necesita para trabajar
y jugar.
ÝÛ
- Need to balance class size
- Academic placement with parent conference
- Incomplete or inaccurate schedules
- Successful completion of summer school course work
It is the expectation of Mack Middle School that students
pass all of their classes every semester. However, the
minimum for promotion are as follows:
ÝÛ
Fomente la organización. Para que el estudio sea productivo,
se debe hacer primero una lista de control. Los estudiantes
de los grados más avanzados de la primaria deberían hacer
una lista todos los días.
ÝÛ
Preste atención. La hora de la tarea es una oportunidad para
aprender sobre su hijo. ¿Tiene muy buenas destrezas de
lectura? ¿Tiene dificultades para deletrear? ¿Necesita ayuda
con las multiplicaciones?
ÝÛ
Apoye a su hijo. Nunca haga la tarea por su hijo. Pero,
quédese cerca para supervisarlo. Está bien responder
preguntas y guiar a su hijo si tiene algún problema. Sin
embargo, si necesita mucha ayuda, hable con el maestro.
PROMOTION/RETENTION POLICY
According to Nevada Administrative Code (NAC) 389.445 and
CCSD Policy and Regulation 5123, students must complete and
pass required courses for promotion to the next grade level or be
retained in the current grade level.
6th Grade: Students must pass 1 semester of English or Reading,
1 semester of math and 1 semester of science to be promoted to
7th grade.
7th Grade: Students must pass 1 semester of English or Reading,
1 semester of math, 1 semester of science and 1 semester of US/
Nevada History to be promoted to 8th grade.
8th Grade: Between 7th and 8th grades, students must pass
3 semesters of English and/or Reading, 3 semesters of math,
2 semesters of science and 2 semesters of social studies to be
promoted to high school.
Students not meeting promotion requirements will be
retained in the current grade level. Summer School classes
may be taken to earn promotion credits. Students in danger
of being retained will receive a retention letter mailed home
after each quarter.
PROMOTE EFFECTIVE STUDY HABITS FOR A
SUCCESSFUL SCHOOL YEAR
Helping your child strengthen his homework and study skills is
one of the most important ways you can help him do better in
school. And the start of a new school year is the perfect time to
get started.
Here’s how:
ÝÛ Choose a regular time and place for homework. It should be
a quiet, comfortable location free from distractions. Stock
it with necessities such as paper, pencils and a dictionary.
ÝÛ Allow for some free time first. Many kids need to blow off
steam after school by exercising or talking about their days.
Many also head straight for a snack. Keep healthy options
available that will energize your child for work and play.
ÝÛ Postpone screen time. Watching TV and playing video games
are privileges that often take time away from priorities,
including reading, homework and chores. Save all screen
time for after homework and studying.
ÝÛ Encourage organization. Productive studying starts with a
to-do list. Older elementary school students should make
one each day.
ÝÛ Pay attention. Homework time is a chance for you to learn
about your child. Does he excel at reading? Have trouble
with spelling? Struggle with multiplication?
ÝÛ Be supportive. Don’t ever do your child’s homework for
him. But do stay nearby to supervise. It’s okay to answer
questions and guide your child through problems. However,
if he needs too much help, talk with his teacher.

PROMUEVA HÁBITOS DE ESTUDIO EFICACES
PARA UN AÑO ESCOLAR EXITOSO
Ayudar a su hijo a fortalecer sus habilidades para hacer la tarea y
estudiar es una de las maneras más importantes en las que usted
puede ayudarlo a rendir mejor en la escuela. Y el inicio de un
nuevo año escolar es el momento perfecto para empezar.
Aquí tiene cómo:
ÝÛ Escoja un horario y un lugar fijo para hacer la tarea. Debe
ser un lugar tranquilo, cómodo y libre de distracciones.
Verifique que tenga materiales básicos, como papel, lápices
y un diccionario.
ÝÛ Permita un poco de tiempo libre primero. Muchos niños
necesitan descargar un poco de energía después de la
escuela haciendo ejercicio o hablando de su día . Muchos
niños se dirigen al refrigerador para comer un bocadillo.

Postergue la hora frente a la pantalla. Mirar televisión y
jugar videojuegos son privilegios que suelen quitarle tiempo
a actividades más importantes, incluyendo la lectura, la
tarea y los quehaceres domésticos. Guarde todo el tiempo
frente a la pantalla para cuando su hijo haya terminado de
hacer la tarea y estudiar.
