Track Parking Lot/Cell Tower - Additions to the cell tower at the end of the track will begin next week. This construction will require the use of a crane; therefore, the parking lot will not be available for student pick up. Thank you for your cooperation throughout this approximately six-week construction period.

Volleyball Match - The Maryville Junior High Volleyball teams will be playing their final matches against Seymour this Thursday, September 19 at MJHS. The JV team will play at 5 pm and the Varsity team will play at 6 pm. All of the 8th grade players will be recognized between the matches. Admission is $2 and concessions will be available. Hope to see you there as the Lady Rebels close out a great season!

MJHS Art Club - The MMS Art Club will begin in just a few weeks, in the month of September, meeting every third Wednesday of each month of the school year in the art room (#209) from 3:30 - 4:30 p.m. Interested students may pick up and complete the MJHS Art Club Membership Forms with their parents and return them to Ms. Drake in the art room, along with the $5.00 membership fee. Interested students do NOT have to currently be taking art class to be an art club member.

Yearbook Orders - It's that time of the year! Yearbooks for the 2023-2024 school year are now available to be purchased! Yearbooks are only $40 dollars and can be purchased online, cash, or check. The last day to purchase yearbooks is April 6th, 2024. If you have any questions, please reach out to Tori Capps at tori.capps@maryville-schools.org. You can find all the information in regard to purchasing a yearbook in the following order form.

Maryville City Schools believes that every student deserves to enter the next phase of life with the appropriate tools for that next step. MCS desires to prepare every student to be "Ready" for one of the three "E"s: Enrollment, Employment, or Enlistment. By taking this purposeful and intentional approach, MCS has designed a college and career program that fits the individual needs of every student. Every student will be "Maryville Ready". We invite you to read our latest edition, MJHS Ready Graduate Gazette.

Breakfast and Lunch are no longer free. Breakfast is $1.60. Lunch is $3.15.

Free/Reduced meal applications for the 24-25 school year will be ready to submit by July 18. Using our online application process is user-friendly and much faster to process than a paper form; however, you may request a paper application from your student's school. Only one application is needed per family.

If you receive any government assistance such as food stamps, Medicare, etc., you DO NOT need to apply. Current benefits from the previous school year will carry over until September 13; therefore, you have 30 school days to update your student's application.

General – Mr. Kuban - Room 220

Math – Mr. Fowler - Room 415

Afternoon: 3:30 – 4:00 p.m. Monday - Thursday

Ready to Start Driving? Students MUST request their 1010 Form in the MJHS Attendance Office before going to the DMV to receive their Learner’s Permit. If you have additional questions, please contact Mrs. Jenkins in the school office or email chris.jenkins@maryville-schools.org. 1010 forms are given based on the previous 9 weeks' grades. If you are failing multiple classes, you are not eligible for a 1010 form until your grades are brought up to passing. The 1010 forms are good for 30 days during the school year.

Students are expected to be on time for school. MJHS students MUST be seated in their first-period class by 8:20 am. Each student will receive 5 excused tardies with parent/guardian notes. After those five, every tardy to school will be unexcused without medical or legal notice. Every three unexcused tardies will be documented as one unexcused absence and will count toward the Progressive Truancy Plan.

Students are limited to ten (10) excused days with parental notes for the year. Any absences beyond those ten (10), without medical or legal documentation, will be unexcused. This school year, the guidelines also apply to absences due to COVID-19.

We ask our families to keep sick children at home. If you are unsure or have questions regarding MCS procedures for student illnesses please contact our school nurse, Pam Myers.
