The North News

Welcome to the 24-25 school year at Mustang North Middle School! We are excited that the school year is almost here and can't wait to see our students back in the hallways. This year promises to be filled with many opportunities for all of our students. Our main goal is to provide a high quality education in a safe and supportive learning environment to ensure that every student achieves their highest potential.

Throughout the year, we encourage your student to engage in extracurricular activities. Research shows that student participation in student activities increases their GPAs, graduation rates, and college acceptance and success rates. It practically eliminates the likelihood that a student will choose to drop out of high school. We have a variety of athletic opportunities, performing arts programs, along with several clubs and organizations.

We are looking forward to working with you in providing enriching experiences for your student. As principals, our doors are always open, and we welcome your input. Please feel free to email, call or make an appointment to come in to discuss any concerns, suggestions, or ideas to help make this the best year yet!

This will be a fun 2 hours of large group activities, small group activities, building tours, etc. designed to help incoming 7th graders learn more about what they can expect this year at MNMS along with answer questions they may have. The orientation will be led by our TAG teachers and student leaders. The student leaders for MNMS are students who were hand selected from a large pool of applicants and have met the qualifications of being a good role model and a positive leader on our campus.

• Students will need to have paper, folder/binder, pen/pencil with them on the first day of school. As for the rest of their supplies, the students should just bring what they have room to bring. The rest of the supplies can be brought on Friday.
• Students will be leaving many of the supplies in their core classes. Teachers will give students specific direction on what to keep and what to turn in.
• If your student rides the bus, please be sure he/she knows what their BUS NUMBER is so they will know what bus to look for after school!
  
• For bus riders, please be aware that busses will likely run late for morning pick-up and afternoon drop-off for the first few days of the year. Please be patient with us! It will improve within the first week!
• The school day is 8:40 am - 3:35 pm. Please do not drop your student off earlier than 8:10. Students are not let in the building prior to 8:10 throughout the school year because there is no adult supervision available prior to this time.
