Dear Hudtloff Families,

Hudtloff students and staff kicked off the 2026 - 2027 school year with a strong and positive start. You can already see evidence of student learning in every classroom. Students are actively engaged in our schoolwide practices - Claim, Evidence, Reasoning (CER) writing, collaborative learning, Visible Thinking Routines, and more. We are focused on helping students become independent thinkers who take ownership of their learning and contribute to the success of others.

Student Led Conferences: Advisory teachers will be sending invitations for your student’s upcoming Student Led Conference. These conferences give students a meaningful opportunity to share their learning, celebrate their progress, and talk about their academic goals with you. It’s a wonderful chance to hear directly from your student about their growth and plans for the year.

Student Recognition: Hudtloff staff will honor students each month in four key areas: Academics, On Time Attendance, Hudtloff Habits, and Daily Attendance. We believe it’s important to celebrate students for their effort, growth, and accomplishments, and we look forward to recognizing the amazing things they are doing every day.

Hudtloff Middle School Annual Action Plan: Hudtloff has created a three year plan to help every student grow, feel connected, and thrive at school. Our focus is on improving learning, strengthening students’ sense of belonging, and building a school environment that supports both academic success and social emotional well being.
