<DIV><SPAN class=475122816-15012008><FONT face=Arial size=2>It seems as though
the snow is gaining on us even though we're still early in
January! If you've had trouble finding out if school is closed,
please see the student handbook on page 4 for a list of media sources that
announce school closures. In addition, whenever school is closed, all MJHS
practices, rehearsals, and events for the day are also cancelled. The
school office is always open if safety allows from 7:30-9:15 on closure
days. We're into our second snow day in as many weeks and it has
affected our end of semester finals schedule somewhat this week. Please
see the revised schedule below. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

already been preparing students for their end of semester assessments
and this minor change should not be a big surprise. If you get this email
today and your son or daughter has some extra time, it might be a good idea to
do a little extra studying to prepare for any upcoming tests that are
scheduled.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=475122816-15012008><FONT face=Arial size=2>Our second
semester starts on Tuesday, January 22. All students will receive their
new schedules this Thursday during their lunches. Schedules are being
finalized at this time, and some draft second semester schedules were visible on
PowerSchool for a short time. We let students know that any schedules they
may have seen are not finalized until their new paper copies are distributed
this Thursday.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

daughter is in Orchestra, Wind Ensemble, or Select Choir, they will have their
group photo taken this Thursday during their regular class period. All
student members have been asked to wear their performance gear for this
event. Sports photos will also be taken on Thursday. This is
also a re-scheduled event that was to have taken place today,
Tuesday. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
