Thank you to all of our families that came to MJHS Back to School Night yesterday!
As part of our new ELA curriculum, 5th grade students are learning the grade level skills needed to have collaborative discussions together. Today, students reviewed the discussion norms they created as a class and participated in the "think-pair-share" protocol to discuss their ideas around the module's guiding questions.
3rd grade students selected independent research reading books today as part of our new ELA curriculum! Students "test drove" many books about their module topic, "Overcoming Learning Challenges Near and Far", and found a book that was their perfect choice!
Tonight is Back to School Night at MJHS! Hear a presentation from teachers and administrators and then walk an abbreviated version of your child's schedule!
