Moving from elementary to middle school can be a difficult switch but it brings new beginnings and experiences. Our student spotlight this week features sixth grader Easton Ickes explaining how he has been adjusting to middle school!
How is middle school going so far?
Slow.
What are your favorite hobbies
Racing dirtbikes, baseball, and boxing.
How does it feel to have a big locker this year?
I haven't forgotten my code; I might have broken it but it's okay now.
Who is your favorite teacher?
Mr. Bromley because he calls me hotdog, and Mr. Neph because science is fun, and he is nice.
Do you feel like classes are more difficult this year?
No, they are almost the same right now but later I feel like it will be more difficult.
What do you like most about 6th grade so far?
I like switching classes every hour instead of being with only three teachers every day.
Who is your favorite brother?
I like them all equally, but I don’t really get along with any of them.
How does it feel to have different classes with different teachers?
Good, I guess.
What is different about middle school compared to elementary?
Everything is different.
Thank you, Easton, for answering these questions with Carter and filling us in on how middle school is going!
