Dear Parents/Guardians:
Welcome to Jackson Creek Middle School! It is the purpose of this letter and the packet that follows to help you
understand important information concerning academic planning for your child at JCMS. Your child has received this
packet to help you decide what courses to enroll him/her in next year.
Your child will be enrolling in seven (7) courses. Five (5) of the courses are required by the State of Indiana, and two of
the courses are elective courses.
The five (5) required courses are as follows: (See Course Descriptions for more information.)
1. Language Arts
2. Science
3. Social Studies
4. Mathematics
5. Grade 7 Exploratory
Grade 7 – 1 semester Physical Education (PE) and Health, one semester of Project Lead the Way or Digital
Citizenship.
You will be selecting the elective courses. Every attempt will be made to place your child in their choices. However,
scheduling conflicts, lack of space and teacher changes may prevent a choice from being fulfilled.
Placement in a mathematics course is determined by middle school teachers based on test results and prior teacher
recommendation. Your child will be taking a placement test in the late spring of 2018. The levels of mathematics are as
follows:
Standard Mathematics Grade 7
Pre-Algebra Grades 7/8
Algebra 1-2 Grades 7/8
Geometry Grades 7/8
There are multiple sections of Standard Mathematics Grade 7, Advanced Mathematics Grade 7, and Algebra offered
because of the number of students enrolled in those courses. The MCCSC’s automated scheduling program will try to
place your child in a section that does not conflict with the elective choice.

Mrs. Kristin Poage, Assistant Principal
Mr. Bill Wallace, Assistant Principal/AD
Mrs. Jaclyn Hardin, Guidance Counselor
Mr. Matthew Stanley, Guidance Counselor
Ms. Deidra Larche, Social Worker
Courses in Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies are teamed in a block and offered at two levels of placement. The
levels are as follows:
Accelerated Learning Program – Grade 7 Humanities (Language Arts & Social Studies) & Advanced Science
Standard Grade 7 Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies
The MCCSC’s automated scheduling program will randomly place your child in a teamed block of three classes. No
general education students are hand-scheduled to a particular team by a JCMS administrator or guidance counselor as only
the computer program makes team assignments. The automated computer program randomly places all of the students in
a team that is composed of Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies classes. The only students who are hand-
scheduled to teams are as follows:
Special Education & ELL (English Language Learners) students who are following an Individualized Education Plan
as per federal and state law.
Qualified ALPs students who are accepted in the district’s gifted and talented program.
Most 7th graders eat lunch with their peers every day. They will have time to be with their friends during this time. Please
keep in mind that the size of the 2018-2019 Grade 7 class is going to be approximately 280 students. This new 7th Grade
class is notably larger than the 6th Grade class they are leaving. Please keep in mind that there are so many sections of
courses that it makes it impossible to hand-schedule students with their friends and/or specific teachers. Thank you in
advance for your understanding of this situation.
The JCMS staff is looking forward to having your child successfully enter Jaguar Country. Please contact a JCMS
Guidance Counselor at (812) 330-2451 with any questions and/or concerns you might have. Thank you!
Sincerely,
David Pillar
