The PAW Print

January 3: Schools Reopen

January 16: Martin Luther King, Jr. Day - All Schools and Offices are closed

January 27: Professional Day- No School for students; end of MP 2

The 8th-grade students under the direction of Ms. Poston and Ms. Shelko collected items to donate to the Charlotte Hall Veterans Home. Students delivered items prior to winter break so our veterans would have needed items over the winter. Thank you to all of our students and community members who assisted our 8th graders with this very worthy project.

It was great to see all the smiling faces and holiday cheer at the Teacher and Staff Holiday Luncheon on 12/15. The PTSO provided lunch from Chaptico Market and the Front Office provided the desserts and drinks.

Exciting things coming in January:

- "Paw Print" Shopping on 1/4 during lunch

- 7th Grade Dance on 1/20 from 2:30pm – 4:30pm

- MBMS croc charms sale

The PTSO would like to wish everyone Happy Holidays!

The MBMS MTSS needs our help with donations for the students to purchase trinkets with their "paw prints". The students get "paw prints" for good behavior and going over and above what is expected of them during the day in class.
