Region 7 ESC is pleased to offer its 8th Annual Parent Academy, FREE to parents of Region 7 students! This year’s academy will feature three break-out sessions covering topics that will introduce parents to activities that will help parents learn how to better communicate with their child on general topics as well as address emotional and behavioral issues. Parents will also get a run-down on the social media tools students are using today.

The Parent Academy is free and open to all parents, but due to seating availability, parents are required to register. A homemade lunch will be provided at no charge, but parents must submit their registration form by the October 21 registration deadline to ensure they receive a lunch. Paper copies of flyers and registration forms should be available in the front office of your child’s school. If your child is in Head Start or Early Head Start, the program’s family service worker should have copies. Registration forms may be submitted in one of three ways:

Did You Know?
Many middle school students need help getting and staying organized. We all have to start things off one day at a time. Encourage your child to keep a list of a few things he wants to get done each day. Then he or she can cross each task off the list once it’s finished. It is a great way to “see” that things are getting accomplished.
Please monitor your child’s progress through Family Access by Skyward, Inc. Family Access is a secure Internet based website that will allow you to easily keep track of nearly everything your student(s) does while at school. Among other things, this service allows you to view your student’s attendance, grades, schedule, progress, assignments, and emergency information. Family Access is a free service and is available to all parents/guardians with children enrolled in the district. Beginning with the 1st Marking Period, we will no longer send home a hard copy of your child’s progress report or report card unless you request a hard copy. (This is consistent with the policy at the high school.) You will be able to access this form by going to WOISD.net and then under “Campuses” click Middle. The link to the form will be under the calendar. For additional information related to Skyward, if you are having difficulties signing in to Skyward, or if you do not have Internet access and are requesting a hard copy of your child’s progress report/report card for each marking period, please call Ms. Cowart at 903.291.2085 or email her at [email protected].
To help better communicate with you, please follow us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/WhiteOakMiddle, and by subscribing to your child’s teachers’ blog posts, Media Center blog post, as well as the principal and counselor’s blog posts.
Parents and Students,
As a new school year begins, remember that there will be many opportunities for meeting new people, exploring new things, and facing new responsibilities. Switching classes, making friends, and participating in activities are all part of the middle school experience, but don’t forget about the academics. Don’t be afraid to talk with teachers, the counselor, administrators, and all school staff members if you need help.
Remember these tips for a great start:

Hello! My name is Sherron Van Camp, and I will be the new counselor at White Oak Middle School.
I am here to help your child through the wonderful, and sometimes challenging, middle school years.
Some people like football, others are passionate about reading, but what I find fascinating is talking to, connecting with, and helping young people. I would like the students here to think of my office as a warm and friendly place, where they are always welcome. My office is also a safe haven – a place where they can get help if they feel confused or worried.
WOMS is a great school, but that doesn’t mean that our students won’t face challenges while they are here. I would like your children to know that they have an ally, and that there is always an adult at the school who will be on their side.
Please feel free to call, email or stop in so that we can meet face to face. I am truly delighted to have the opportunity to serve you and the White Oak Middle School students..
