“…the final forming
of a person’s character lies in their own hands.”
Track
Team
members: Please turn in your track uniform to ASAP! If you have already turned
it in, see Ms. Palmer to get your deposit check back. Also, there is a
mandatory track team meeting at lunch TODAY in room 85.
Writers!!!!
Written compositions are now being accepted for the Memorial Day Writing
Contest! Four finalists will get to read their pieces at the opening
ceremony of the Mill Valley Memorial Day Parade and will also ride on the Stage
Coach in the Parade! Submissions should be under 500 words in length and
reflect on Memorial Day – your family’s personal attachment to the holiday, the
history of it, or remembering those who have served our country. You
may use any genre – poetry, essay, short story, whatever you
choose. Please submit writing to nmiller@mvschools.org
by Wednesday, May 17th.
Please
remember that Dress Code states that students are to dress appropriately
for the school environment. Pajama pants, off the shoulder shirts, short
shorts, very short skirts or dresses, or any clothing worn by any student that
exposes undergarments or midriffs are not allowed. Students not within the
dress code will be sent to the office to change, and disciplinary action will
be taken according to school policy, which could impact participation in end of
year activities.
Students, if you are going to arrive late to school, or leave
early, you MUST bring a note signed by your parents to school with you
explaining the reasons and timing of your absence. If you do NOT have a note
with you, you may have to serve detention or you may be late leaving. The full
procedure is on our website.
All
students should remember to bring your headphones to school with you every day
and ensure your ipad is fully charged so that you can participate in testing
over the next few weeks.
Attention
6th and 7th Graders! How are those yearbook cover designs
for next year coming? They are due this Friday, May 19th to the bin
outside room 10 in Upper Earth. Remember to include your full name and grade
level on the back! Questions? See Ms. Zeisler in room 10.
Students
please power down your cell phones at this time.
