Contact Mr. Papson with any questions.Yearbook Club
Yearbook Club will be starting Tuesday, October 22! We will meet after school until 4:00 pm. Please pick up your child promptly at 4:00 pm or make arrangements to pick them up earlier.
Yearbook club members will be designing the pages of the yearbook. They will learn how to use Yearbook Avenue to tag photos, design layouts and add photos to pages. They will also help create promotional materials. At the beginning of June, students will sort the yearbooks and get a sneak preview!
Yearbook Club runs from mid-October to the first Tuesday in February. Regular attendance is requested due to the significant importance of the roles students will be assigned. If students are involved in other Tuesday clubs or sports (Ski Club) they should not join.
Please email Kelly Brutlag if you have any questions.
2024 Warrior Hurdle and Long Jump Camps
Did your child participate in track and field last year or do they have an interest in participating in the future? If so, they may be interested in this opportunity. Muskego High School is holding camps for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students on November 4th, 11th, 18th, and 25th. This link has registration and coach information. If interested, it is recommended to sign up soon, as registration is capped.
Timberwolf Study Den
Timberwolf Study Den is a NEW after-school club held on Wednesdays and Thursdays in Mrs. Rappis' room (Room 110, 7th grade hallway) from 3:05 to 4:00 PM. It provides a quiet, focused environment for students to complete homework, with the possibility of receiving additional help. Each session is supervised by two advisors, along with National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) volunteers, who are available to assist when they are familiar with the content.
Club Expectations:
- Come prepared with all necessary materials and remain in the classroom once you arrive.
- The primary goal is to focus on homework, not to socialize.
- Maintain a quiet voice (level 1).
- Show respect to all advisors (Mrs. Rappis, Mrs. Bremberger, Mrs. Gorr, and Ms. Butchart).
- Ensure you have arranged transportation and are picked up on time.
While sign-up is not mandatory, we highly recommend completing the form in advance. This allows us to plan staffing and potentially arrange for volunteers to assist in areas where extra support may be needed. If your child is interested, they can access the sign-up form through the daily announcements or directly via this link, though they must use their school account to submit it.
For students in NJHS looking to earn service hours, there's an opportunity to assist peers with homework. If interested, they can fill out this form using their school account, and the advisors will reach out with information on the days they are needed. This form will also be located in the daily announcements for students to access.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Nikki Kamperschroer at nicole.kamperschroer@muskegonorway.org .
