This blog has been established by the Guidance Department of Portland Middle School in Portland, TN. It is our hope that this avenue of communication will create a dialogue that will help our faculty better meet the needs of our students. Parents, teachers, students, and any stake-holder in our middle school are welcome to respond to this blog.

I would like to see things posted about activities at the school and I would like to see teacher's comments and discussions to maybe open up some lines of communication with the parents.
For activities at the school you can go to our website at http://pms.sumnerschools.org
If you'd like to communicate with your child's teachers over the internet, go to the above website, click on Our Staff, and click on your child's grade. Teacher emails can be obtained from that page. You can also call our office to set up an appointment with the teachers.
It would be difficult to have all the teachers post to this blog and keep it moderated. However, comments can certainly be left by anyone who wishes. One thing to consider is we are limited at the school since we cannot view the blog there. The county's internet security program won't allow it since blogs are communication websites. I am actually posting this from home on a Saturday morning. Hope this helps.
Mr. Sadler is the blog administrator and one of the counselors at Portland Middle. He is an alumnus of Freed-Hardeman University and Western Kentucky University (WKU). He has a graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. Mr. Sadler is also working towards his license as a professional counselor.
Mrs. Lea has an undergraduate degree from the University of Southern Mississippi in Pre-Professional Psychology. She earned two graduate degrees from Western Kentucky University in Marriage and Family Therapy and in School Counseling. Mrs. Lea has ten years experience in counseling with fifteen years experience in teaching, ten of which are at the college level.
Through classroom guidance, individual counseling, group sessions, and other programs we offer a comprehensive guidance program for all 920 middle school students.
