Another Successful Middle School Game Night!

On Friday, October 27, middle schoolers were invited to campus for our annual game night, when students in Grades 6, 7, and 8 come to campus to play various games and enjoy each other’s company—the evening included opportunities to play board games, cards, and video games. For those less interested in games, we also had a movie, and we even reserved the music room for anyone who wanted to dance! We had plenty of delicious snacks, drinks, and pizza to ensure the students had all the sustenance they needed to play through the evening. Social opportunities are especially important in Middle School as young adolescents begin to place greater importance on their social connections. Students are seeking out peers to spend time with, and game night allows us to offer a safe, non-academic space in which to do so. St. Patrick’s Middle School game night continues to be a highlight for not only our students but teachers as well, who can both observe and take part in the joy of the evening!
