Thank you MJHS Musicians for a wonderful concert. This annual concert shows our younger students what is possible if they work hard and are persistent. The performances were wonderful. Thank you to Mrs. Bussean, Ms. Clifford, Mrs. Cheney, and Ms. Nyder.

6th graders are working hard on their quarter 4 benchmark writing assessments in ELA!

Save the date for these exciting events out on by our incredible PTA!

Friendly reminder: tomorrow is an early dismissal day!

7th grade social studies students had the option to celebrate Earth Day by reusing materials at home to create an object that represents their studies of American History. Congratulations to Emma, Aubrey, and Cooper for their winning designs!

5th graders learned about tornadoes, hail, and thunderstorms today from Mr. Nick from Illinois Storm Chasers and Storm Science. They even experienced a storm cloud in the gym! Thank you to the PTA for sponsoring this event that extended learning from their ELA module about natural disasters!

Congratulations to third grade students, Monserrat and Sean, for being selected for the Illinois Principal Association Student Recognition Award!

Happy Administrative Professionals Day! We have some of the best! Our administrative professionals are the unsung heroes of our schools and we couldn't do this without them! 🥰

MIS Band & Orchestra students watched IL Philharmonic Orchestra perform at Governors State! Many students saw professional musicians play the same instrument as them! Johnny Thorns from Beginning Band and Mrs. Rothemel also helped with a magic trick where they made an ID float!

Second Grade Dudes Rock was a huge success last Friday! Thank you to all of the awesome dudes that came to the event!
