Techie Leaders

Two of our 5th grade students have taken technology to a new level. They have created their own You Tube channel where they showcase various Minecraft and other video game tutorials. We are so proud of these students at MMIS who are being innovators at a young age.
Here is the link to one of their videos on the channel Bergyboyz:

A note from Ms. Davis

MMIS Families,

As you may know, the HGHS varsity basketball teams (boys and girls) made the regional tournament.  They play on Thursday, February 12 - girls at 12:00 and boys at 1:30.   In support of HGHS, our students will be excused from school if they attend the games. We will not be providing a pep bus or making any other organized group arrangements. It will be up to parents to provide the transportation. To be excused, students must submit a ticket stub with their name on the back to their homeroom teacher on Friday morning. Keep in mind that we are holding our first school-wide academic competition on Thursday afternoon. Students will be working in teams to solve science mysteries and build various things like weight-bearing pasta bridges, puff mobiles, and egg drop carriers. Remember, Friday is a half day and students will be dismissed at 11:05 a.m. We will have our first dance from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. on Friday. Admission is $5.

Go, Trojans! GOOD LUCK
