Winter Ball!
On December 6th, the Junior High students attended the Winter Ball. Big thanks to the PTSA for making this event happen! A lot of fun was had by all!
Press Conference
"I am now taking questions!" Students in Mrs. Bradley and Mrs. Long's 7th grade ELA classes held an interactive "press conference" as one of the culminating activities for the novel A Long Walk to Water. Students practiced writing and asking open-ended questions and answered the questions from the point of view of the protagonists.

We have some fun planned for 2025; including the student designed T-shirt contest, the school play, new partnerships for restaurant to the rescue, spring personality pictures, yearbook shout outs, square 1 art and more! Our General meeting on Thursday, January 16th at 6pm in the MS Library will go over all the details. We hope to see you there.
