are preparing for our end of quarter “Academic Update” for parents.
We’ve planned an arena style conferencing activity that will be the first
of its kind for our school. An informational sheet was sent home for all
parents with students yesterday. If you didn’t receive it, I’ve
copied it at the bottom of this letter for you. We hope that you will be
able to attend and visit with teachers during the times listed. If you
are unable to attend or need more than a ten minute update, please contact the
individual teacher to set up an appointment.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

6:00 p.m., until 8:00 p.m., in the MJHS Multi-Purpose Room. If you would
like to chaperone, please contact Kevin Hill or call the office to let us
know. Dances at MJHS are big events for our students and we make sure
there are plenty of adult chaperones to keep the activity safe and secure.
Please consider this your invitation.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>We are very excited about our new school weather station. We’ve
been working for almost a full year to get this new research instrument up and
running. It includes two weather cams that are pointed in a northeasterly
direction from the junior high school and in a westerly direction from the high
school. Both cameras have excellent views of our skyline. The
weather station itself is placed high atop the junior high school and provides
very accurate information. We would like to thank Jim LaFortune, MJHS
Science teacher, Pat Stewart, MJHS Librarian, and Gale Gourley and Chanc Hiatt,
MSD computer technicians for their work getting this project online. The
