Dear Mustang Families,

This week was Project Smile Week, sponsored by our campus Hope Squad and Counseling Department, and we certainly had plenty of reasons to smile! We are incredibly proud of the district-wide work of Hope Squad and especially grateful for the exceptional students and staff at Moseley who make the mental health and well-being of our entire campus a priority.

Each morning this week, Hope Squad students and teachers welcomed everyone to campus with bubbles, stickers, and, of course, smiles. Our staff and students joined in dress-up days centered around friendship and community, bringing a little extra joy to our halls. Our administrators, counselors, and campus police officer, Sergeant Bryant, also spent time with our sixth and seventh graders in class meetings focused on being our best selves and living into what it means to be a Mustang.

As we walked around campus this week, we were reminded that sometimes the little things - a smile, a kind word, a greeting at the door, or a reminder that someone matters - can make a really big difference. We are thankful for a week that gave us so many opportunities to connect, care for one another, and, quite simply, smile.

Let's RIDE! 🐎

Our Plan on a Page (campus improvement plan) is so much more than just words on a page. Each week, notice the goals and items featured here in order to see the things that matter to us most coming to life!

The 10-Minute Mustang Weekly Check-In is a simple protocol families can use to check in with their middle schooler each week using their Mustang agenda.

The Mustang Minga Conversation is a weekly opportunity for you and your student to celebrate their successes, reflect on their choices, and talk about how you can support their continued growth.

Meet: Gabe K

Riding With: 6th Grade

Getting Acclimated: Gabe was our first 6th grader to be recognized by a teacher for Cultivating Community. He stood out for being such a great helper in his science class!

Where I Shine: Band!

My Favorite Class: Social Studies

My Favorite Thing About Moseley: The people here are so nice.

We love seeing our Mustangs shine in the areas they have chosen to get involved in! These photos highlight one of our theater classes as students learn the art of pantomime, along with two of our volleyball teams competing this week.

One of the great joys of middle school is the growing amount of choice students have. Whether they find their place on a stage, on a court, in a club, or somewhere else entirely, these experiences give students opportunities to discover their interests, develop their strengths, and learn more about themselves. Every choice is a small step toward becoming the person they want to be and beginning to shape their own plans for the future.

We are proud of our Mustangs for trying new things, finding their people, and letting their individual strengths shine!

Optimum's 19th Annual Hispanic Heritage Essay Contest is now open! Middle and high school students are invited to reflect on how Hispanic culture has influenced their lives for a chance to win a $3,000 scholarship, iPads, and more. Submissions are accepted now through October 15, with winners announced in mid-November and celebration events to follow in December.

Our goal at Moseley: Every adult at Moseley grows in their leadership capacity—equipped with clarity, responsive skills, and the confidence to help students thrive.

Meet: Ms. Suggitt

Riding With: Graphic Design & Hope Squad

The Adult Constant: Ms. Suggitt is one of our Hope Squad teachers, a team lead for one of our CTE teams, and a member of our Behavior Instruction Team. While she wears many hats at Moseley, what stands out most is the way she consistently uses each of those roles to support the growth of both our students and our staff.

Whether she is supporting a student in or out of the classroom, helping a colleague grow, or contributing to the systems that help our campus thrive, Ms. Suggitt is an adult our Mustangs can count on. We are grateful for the care, leadership, and constant support she brings to our Moseley community every day.

My Favorite Thing About Moseley: Our students aren't afraid to tackle hard things. Our staff leads by example - being vulnerable, honest, and completely dedicated to supporting one another and our students to make the biggest impact possible. Above all, we put the human element first. We know that whether you are a teacher, staff member, or student, your personal needs have to be met before real learning can happen. When our people are supported, our entire community thrives.

September is Mental Health Awareness Month! This week, Moseley celebrated SMILE Week by bringing awareness to mental health, stress, and healthy coping strategies. Students learned simple ways to manage stress and support their well-being. Take a moment to review these stress tips with your student at home!

Our goal at Moseley: We will work to ensure that families feel like true partners in their student's Moseley journey—welcomed, informed, and invested in their growth from entry through 8th grade.
