This school year, MHMS has embraced the motto of Believe, Belong, Become, during DEN this week, students viewed a video, created by the MHMS staff, showing how much we believe in them. Staff members took time to tell our students things that they wanted them to know. Their messages ranged from statements about how hard middle school was for them, to how their students help them get through hard times in their own lives, to how much they enjoying learning and growing with students. DEN ended with students identifying staff members in the building who they personally connect with.
I would like to wish everyone in our school community a Happy Thanksgiving. I hope that you have the opportunity to relax and spend time with family and/or friends. I wish all who are traveling during this holiday safe travels. And, we look forward to starting off the month of December after the Thanksgiving Break!
