Pattengill 5th graders recently participated in a Middle School Prep Series designed to help them feel more confident and prepared for their next big step. The series focused on learning about middle school expectations, responsibilities, social-emotional changes and conflict resolution.

The sessions were led by School Social Worker, Alyssa Klein, alongside Anderson Middle School counselors Jessica Stone and Melissa Ng, with support from Emily Stephenson, an alumna of both Anderson Middle School and Berkley High School.
