</SPAN>MJHS is an incredible school.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>This past week we held our fall activities assembly<SPAN
class=176255322-13112006>; </SPAN>we recognized over 300 students who
participated in all kinds of school sponsored activities, and our Wind Ensemble
and MJHS choirs performed a fantastic tribute to our Veterans. <SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It was a great time to reflect and
celebrate the successes of our kids.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Mr. Hill and I spent a few minutes talking to the student body about
their first quarter, and we made sure they knew that the staff at MJHS will do
anything to help them be successful. <SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We also let them know that they will need
to study and do their homework in order to learn as much as possible. <SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN><SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We focused on caring for each other
and helping others when needed. <SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It
is our goal to ensure that each student has a positive experience at MJHS.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We would like to thank all parents for
all of the help that has been given to our students so far this school
year.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Have a very happy
Thanksgiving.<o:p></o:p></FONT></FONT></P>
