MMS will be starting up the Extending Learning Times next week . We will have a flier posted with options and times. This year's participation from Staff is going to be awesome! There will be plenty of options for our students to be involved with unique learning experiences and one on one instructional support. The individual staff will be taking care of their own sign ups and permission slips. Feel free to reach out if you have more questions.

Welcome back MMS to the new school year 2022-23. Students are in full swing with classroom activities and learning. Extracurricular activities started last week with the Torrance Co. Fair. Congratulations to all MMS FFA & 4H students who participated! Football and Volleyball practices started this week and will soon be playing games as early as next week. Good Luck Colts!
We do have a quick announcement regarding 8th grade schedule changes. We have an increased 8th grade student enrollment and classes are large. The District provided us support by adding an additional half-time instructor. We will be increasing to 4 sections of Health and 5 sections of History. Only 20% of the 8th graders will have new class assignments. They will be notified Thursday, 18th with new schedules and report on Friday 18th. This will not disrupt instruction, they will all continue with the same course work. They will all benefit from small class sizes.
Back-to-School means back to Book Fairs too! All of our school libraries are seeking volunteers to assist with Book Fairs during this school year. Volunteers will receive a 20% discount on Book Fair purchases!
