“Each day comes to me with both hands full of possibilities.”

Many of you may have heard about ways that schools around the country are sending messages of strength and unity to the students who survived the recent shootings at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.  At this time, their school website states that these students and staff would appreciate receiving banners with our well wishes to be displayed around their campus.

At lunchtime every day from now until March 14, there will be a few classrooms open for students to go and create banners or signs for the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School campus.  Anyone interested is invited to come to room 20 (Lewczyk), 27 (Miller) or 29 (Front) TODAY at lunch and make signs that show support for and unity with these students.  Teachers will collect your finished posters so that MVMS can send them all to Parkland, Florida after the National Walkout Day on March 14.

Students: The Lost and Found countdown is on! Make a trip to the Lost and Found TODAY and retrieve your items now. They will be donated Thursday, March 8^th.

Parents: Have you seen that great jacket/sweater/water bottle/lunchbox with your son or daughter lately? It may be in our Lost and Found! Encourage your student to take a look (and/or you can look) for anything they might have misplaced before it is donated on Thursday!

Students: We will be holding our Lockdown Drill on Wednesday, March 7^th. Mill Valley Police will be on site to evaluate our procedures. Please follow all instructions given by your teachers during the drill and conduct yourselves in a mature and appropriate manner.
