A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL
This being the last parent letter of the year, I want to thank you for the support and patience shown these past 10 months. We had successes and some challenges, yet despite all, we continue the work that has to be done to ensure the safety and educational needs of our students to meet the highest standards. Warmer weather is here and the month of May promises to be both a busy and an exciting time with competitive spring sports and the end-of-the-year achievements of our students as well as the celebration of our graduating 8th graders.
As we continue to move forward, I encourage parents to remain vigilant in monitoring their student's grades through the parent skyward portal. The month of May will be a busy time with the end-of-year activities, celebrations, programs, and assessments. As a reminder, please take a look at the end of year exam schedule, summer school dates if needed, and summer camp happenings below.
As always, I encourage you to please continue to refer to the MISD website, our school website, http://schools.misd.org/page/mjhs.homepage, and our social media pages (Twitter, Instagram, and MJH PTO Facebook) for additional information.
Thank you, again for your continued support this year. Best wishes to our graduating eighth graders, whom we will miss greatly. Have a wonderful summer break. Here’s wishing you love, laughter, and learning.
Warm regards,
Angie
All PRN (as needed) medication in the clinic MUST be picked up by a parent by Friday May 17, 2024 by dismissal at 2:40pm. Any daily medications (i.e. ADHD meds) MUST be picked up by Tuesday May 21, 2023. Any medication left in the clinic will be discarded. We will not be able to hold any medication in the clinic over the summer.
Emergency meds can be picked up by dismissal on 5/22/2023​
All students are required to have a new medication form(s) on file each school year. You may access and print these forms for medication (daily meds and as needed meds such as Tylenol, ibuprofen, etc.) need to be on separate forms. Any daily prescription medication forms will have to be signed by a physician including epi-pens and inhalers. These forms can be found on the MISD website under Departments; Health Services.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Courtney Buckner, RN
