  1. Wow... Give me a sec to process that I only havlimited time with my favorite teacher... NO I CAN'T DO IT! IT HURTS TO BAD! :( One of my best memories of Middle School was coming to middle school. I was home schooled until 6thgrade then I came to Maywood. I had always wanted to try public school like my siblings... Some of the things that stopped me was my allergies. Another one of my best memories was in 6t grade, I watch north and south run at each other from opposite sides of the field waving flages andwearing face paint while i was taking out the garbage. One of my worst memories was a fight i got in with my best friend that ended our friwendship. Another good memory was getting Mrs. Nadell for a teacher! Another happened today, Thanks Garret! I always wanted to touch a saxaphone! And hear someone play it! I LOVE SAXAPHONES!!!!!

  2. Where do I start? There have been soooo many memories throughout my three years of middle school. Bad and good. For the most part good,like becoming closer to my friends, while making new ones. For sure my eighth grade year has been the best, I think I owe it all to Nadell because shes one of the most supportive, friendliest, funniest, amazing teachers ever. I enjoy every second being in her class, she makes my day/morning. Some other great memories is also being part of leadership, one of my favorite classes. Being part of leadership is just amazing. I've grown and learned more about being a leader and getting better with public speaking. The people in my class have grown together like one big family, and its just amazing how great everyone's bond is. Its really sad to know that in like 50 days I'll be out of middle school and moving on to high school, the next step to growing up...I'm gonna miss it.

  4. ok so the best times in middle school were when i had such awesome teachers. And when the class clowns were being crazy. i know their crazy but they mafe me laugh every dsy:) i also like the times when i would do sports with my freinds!!!!I loved how my friends and i could accually have fun during classes of after schoo. I also loved how i got to experience the dancing trimester in 6th and 7th grade, but i wasnt so lucky this year. i love, love, love my science teacher MR.FILTH becuase when you finallly get to seehim smile its the best thing ever.... I also love my LA/SS teacher MRS.NADELL i love how she is really competitive, i love all my teachers and all my new friends. But what i will hate is that salami (SALIMA) hass to move awat i mean why could she just stay until school was over we onley have like 2 months left :( :(:( I WILL MISS YOU SALIMA DONT FORGET ME. what i alson didnt like was how much homework we had and how much tests we had....

  5. The best times ive had at maywood are usually when i have great teachers like you! They help me to do better in classes and just overall make my year better! I wish i got the dance part of P.E but i never did. I love my math teacher Mrs. Briggs because she explains concepts thoroughly. Also my science teacher (Gegs) is super cool! I really dont like how often we have tests in middle school and how our passing time is so short. Overall, ill be very sad to leave maywood :(

  7. Some of the best memories are probably when I ment my friends that came from other schools and all the fun times we have had together. Also, there have been so many new memories created in Mrs. Nadell's classroom. Some of the worst memories will be when we have to leave Maywood and all the teacher and some friends. :( I also will be sad when Salami moves D: It has been a great three years though. Im going to miss Maywood!

  8. HeyHey lol so i've only been at maywood for two years. I don't have as many good memories as I do bad though so this letter is mostly just going to be sad... Sorrry :/ ANYWAY:

    We will start out with the bad to get it over with: In seventh grade everything was really dramtic, the smallest thing you did wrong made everyone mad at you. I learned that the hard way. I learned that one rumor can ruin more than a couple friendships. I learned that one guy could kill your best friends trust and support. I mostly learned that I should choose friends wisely and not hang out with people that cause me trouble. But I also learned that drama is a drug for me, not that I would ever do drugs... GROSS. BUt yeah I realized that the minute I hear something about so and so or this and that, that I automatically want to repeat it a again... So yeah I bassically want to say that I don't have very many freinds anymore becuase of me wanting to start drama.
    To end with a happy note, this year I got to start my fourth year of cello and my first year discovering that I could sing. I loved meeting Gegs for the first time and I liked sharing classes with The Three Musketeers becuase even on the days I wasn't doing so well on they would make me laugh. But the thing I am most fond of this year is... DRUM ROLL PLEASE... I loved meeting and having Nadle ( I know I spelt your name wrong but that's how I say it.) as my LA/SS teacher this year becuase she is hilarious and always good natured about everything. Anyway Mrs. Nadell I want you to know thta you are my favorite teacher ever... well maybe not the most favorite... you have some compotition with Gegs. bUt I still think you are awesome.

  12. The best part about my middle school years was meeting new friends from different Elementary schools. I love getting to know all the wonderful teachers at Maywood especially Mrs Nadell!!! I'm going to miss you! You are so funny, nice, cool, and awesome teacher! And one thing I learn is that people change and goes into a different direction. It's sad but part of life.

  14. I know that i am going to cry on last day of school. I am posotive of that. This year it finally clicked that time goes by fast so dont waist your time looking back at your past. I have done that alot this year. This year was one of my best years in middle school and i am soooo glad to have nadell as my humanites teacher! But back to the topic of time moving on. Half way threw the first trimester i finally relized that im going to high school next year. Then i will have to get a job,learn to drive(dont want to drive), and will eventually go to collage. Everyone talks about how "your friends are what makes school important" thats true and i hate how i have lost friends over the years but i have made new friends too. The sad thing is that i have alot of younger friends in 7th grade and a 6th grade friend (SHOUT OUT TO YARELI!!! XD) honestly i will miss them the most cuz i wont see them for a year or more. Also people that say "freinds are the most inportant things in the world" i have to disagree. When we all go to collage we probally wont ever see eachother again we will all get into different collages and will have to make a new set of friends. Everyone will try to keep in touch with their friend but will give up after 1 month or so. Even though i am really exsited to go to highschool and hang out with my friend korye "jacob"(only ace will understand XD) thats probally e only thing i am looking forward to in highschool. Basiclly the whole idrea scares me cuz i really like high school and the idea of having nothing like bills and house payments to worry about. This year has gone by wayyyyyyy to fast and i wish i could start the year over again :) and btw nadell i will miss you soooo much!!!

  15. the worst time was having science with mr.ship. i know that sounds mean but he was scary and rude. the best time where having laughs with my friends and havine mrs.Nadell ass my teacher. being able to make new freinds and have nice teachers to help me with my work. Even mrs. briggs is all right. she helps and understands or problems and helps use with our homework. doimg the reader wowrkshop was cool because i was able to read new books i had not read befor. i am sad that i will be laving all my freinds and class mates(even Bryce jk). i will miss mrs nadell the most because she was the coolest teacher ever and will alwasy be cool even if she looses the march madness.

  19. These last 3 years of middle school have had there ups and downs. I have had so many crazy memories with teachers, friends, assembly's, spirit days etc. It's really sad to think about how we are moving on to high school in less then a year. I didnt realize how nerve racking it is. I am honestly nervous for these next 4 years in highschool. I will definatley miss maywood. My favorite memories are of course being in Mrs. Nadell's class (#1 teacher ) all of those fun, creative spirit days, leadership, all of the great teachers & so much more! I love being in 8th grade because I feel like everyone looks up to you and you have so much control. 6th grade was a breeze & 7th grade was really tough but 8th grade is by far my favorite, most memorable year at maywood. I truly am going to miss it. Some of the bad memories I have had at Maywood is..... Actually I dont think there are any bad memories. Another memorie I will have is The march madness competition and the food drive in Mrs. Nadells class. It's really funny to see how into she is and how much she wants to win and keep the "Golden Ball." Overall my past 3 years at maywood have been memorie-filled, funny, exciting, sad, happy.... Pretty much all of the above. I'm gonna miss ya' Maywood!
