Homecoming:  Homecoming is TOMORROW!  Make your plans ahead of time.  If you are riding a different bus after school, you will need to bring a note from your parents to the office Friday morning before school and get a bus pass.  If you are leaving early, you must bring a note from your parents with the time and reason.  Bring the note to the front office before school starts to get a pass.  Test/emails are not acceptable, you must bring notes.  You will not be allowed to call home during classes to make plans, so be sure you make your plans and talk to your parents before Friday!

Mr. Bielmeier’s PE Classes:  Bring your chromebook to class today.

Football:  Congratulations to the 8^th grade football teams on great seasons.  The heavyweights lost a tough battle on their final game on Tuesday, 14-8, but showed great resolve during their second half comeback.  The coaches are very proud of all of our student athletes on the growth they achieved on the journey towards the best version of ourselves.  Keep up the great work throughout the rest of the school year.

Fall Play:  Don’t miss your opportunity to hit the stage once again in this year's fall play “15 Reasons Not to Be In A Play”! This is a play about not being in a play, ironically expressed through a hilarious series of monologues, duets, and ensemble scenes, is one you are not going to be able to resist.  Auditions will be next week Monday and Tuesday in the choir room.  You must register for auditions on the MMS Drama website.  If you have any questions, ask Ms. Coffey via email, or in room 814 after school, or during 8th grade lunch.
