For our new families, I will be creating a virtual tour/video outlining our building.
Unfortunately, we are still without power at MJHS. Because of this and the time left to do sixth grade orientation all 6th grade orientations will be canceled for today and tomorrow. I will instead be doing a virtual tour of the building and explaining as much as possible. Our 6th grade students can come to the junior high Monday, August 17 between the hours of 7 AM and 7 PM to walk through the building, practice their lockers, and drop materials off. Parents are welcome to come help but please limit it to one. Masks will need to be worn and social distancing wherever possible.
Some of the junior high schedules are finished. We are hoping to have the remainder of them completed by tomorrow afternoon. As soon as they are finished an email will be sent out to all families.
