Dear Parents and Guardians:

Schedule this week - We have A days all week this week due to CORE days.  Friday will be a shortened A day schedule, with an early release for collaboration.  Friday's special schedule:  A Day Early Release Friday.pdf 

CORE/Cub Pride Lessons and CORE Days for 6-8 graders: This week, all three grade levels have the opportunity to participate in activities facilitated by Greg Sommers, beginning on Monday, Sept. 18. Monday is for 8th grade, Tuesday for 7th and Wednesday for 6th.  A number of 8th graders have been identified to help with the 6th grade day as well, and we really appreciate their assistance and positive leadership.  The names of students who turned in permission slips were posted last week so students would know if they participate in morning or afternoon sessions.  Please contact us if you have questions.  

PST Corner:  The first MMS Parent Support Team meeting will take place Thursday, September 28 at 5:30 pm in the MMS library.  The meeting is open to anyone who would like to attend to find out more about how to support MMS students and staff.
