Our talent show will take place on May 20th at 5:30 in the cafeteria!

Dear Families,

This week we are beginning to take our last tests of the year. Please have a talk with your child about taking their time and trying their best on the IREADY diagnostics. Understandably, students are experiencing fatigue from all the tests we have had to take. These tests will determine grades on report cards and determine total growth of the student for the year. They are extremely important to drive our instruction at Julia Morgan.

Thank you,

Mr. Pappas

Please note that we are not able to replace any chromebooks at this time. As we near the end of the year, please make sure all chromebooks are free of stickers and in working condition.

Ready to learn! As part of our PBIS moto, all students whould come to school ready to learn. Chrome books should be charged, homework or projects should be in your backpacks, and JM dress code should be followed. Reminder no Crocs are allowed.

Please make sure to call in your absences to Mrs. Veronica or Mrs. Joyce as soon as possible.

The effects on chronically absent students are major. Please make sure your child is attending school.
