A Message from the Principal
Changes for the new School Year
Change is always exciting and interesting. Here are the changes that will take
place for the 2010-2011 school year:
- The name Goodyear Middle School will cease to exist.
- Seventh and eighth graders will return, as uaual, to the 45 N. Martha Ave. building in
the fall of 2010. This building is now considered part of the East Community Learning Center.
- Sixth graders will remain in their Cluster elementary buildings.
- The Martha Ave. building, formerly Goodyear Middle School, will be renamed East C.L.C. - Goodyear Campus.
- When our new building next to East on Brittain Rd. is completed, the students will move to that building.
The current projected date for that move is June, 2011 (the end of this coming school year).
More information will be provided as it becomes available.

Construction continues for Goodyear's new home as part of the
East Community Learning Center. The separate middle school wing,
being built facing Brittain Rd. and adjacent to the existing East High building, is
scheduled to open in August, 2011.

As a middle school teacher, would you like to offer your classes a curriculum that
encompasses many areas of learning at the same time? As a middle school student,
would you like to learn while watching classic movies?
Maybe the answer to both wishes is the free curriculum sponsored by Turner Classic Movies
and IBM called
The Story of Movies.
Because of its interdisciplinary approach to studying film, The Story of Movies
integrates the core subjects of language arts, history and social studies, music, art,
and science. In screening film segments and investigating both the language of
film and the historical and cultural context in which a film is produced, students
practice critical reading and thinking skills and formulate ideas through discussions,
written reports, and group activity projects
