Aloha, parents! Advisory teachers distributed promotion tickets to participating 8th graders today, May 24. Each participating student received TWO tickets to give to their parents. Please ask your son/daughter for these tickets so you can keep them in a safe place. We are not able to replace lost tickets. Along with the tickets is a memo with important information and reminders for that day. We thank you all for adhering to the rules of the Blaisdell Concert Hall and our school. We're looking forward to a day of celebration on Wednesday, May 30.

For those students enrolled in our Summer Enrichment Program, you may pickup your class schedule starting Tuesday, May 29 in our front office. If a parent/guardian is picking up the schedule we ask that you bring a photo ID. 7th grade students currently enrolled at MMS can show their school ID to pick up their schedule.

The attached form for students leaving the state or attending a non-DOE school must be completed and signed by a parent /guardian in order for refunds to be processed. Please note that with the new EZ School Pay System your child(s) meal account balance will now be directly carried over to his/her next State of Hawaii DOE school. Please be aware that refunds are made only when daily cash is being collected and deposited into school meal accounts. Since meal account deposits decline as the school year comes to an end, refunds requested at the end of the school year may be delayed - until cash is made available through deposits made into meal accounts at the beginning of the next school year (2018-2019). Additional questions regarding REFUNDS may be answered by calling the School Food Services Branch directly at (808) 733-8400. SCHOOL MEAL ACCOUNT REFUND REQUEST forms may be downloaded by clicking this headline or picked up in the front office.
