The Riflemen Weekly Update
News from DMMS for the Week of September 29, 2024
A Message from Ms. O'Donnell
Dear Daniel Morgan Middle School Students and Families,
Picture day is October 3rd! Please see information below about ordering school pictures. The Daniel Morgan band and choir will be performing on Friday, October 4th at 6:00 pm.
Permission slips for our 7th grade field trip to Harpers Ferry went home on Monday. We are looking for some chaperones to join us on the trip. Please ensure you indicate your interest in chaperoning on the permission slip. Permission slips are due October 3rd. In addition, permission slips for the WOW field trip for 8th grade have gone home. Please complete them and return them to school as soon as you can.
We love when students are able to support our athletic events. As a reminder, students must follow school rules and use appropriate behavior and language during after school events, including athletics. Attending these events is a privilege. If a student is not following the rules, they will be asked to leave. Thank you for reviewing these expectations. We want to represent Daniel Morgan in an appropriate way. Go Riflemen!
I hope you had a wonderful weekend. If I can ever be of any assistance, feel free to reach out to me at any time. Let's make it a great week!
