On Friday, March 1, the Be Kind, Be Respectful Month Committee will be offering two activities to our students. We will be showing a kindness-themed movie Pay It Forward in our Advisory classes, and we will also be sponsoring a Have a Heart Dance Party in the cafe to benefit the American Heart Association. Both activities require permission forms. In addition to the permission form, the Dance Party requires a $5 fee. This activity is limited to 300 students. We will be filling these spots on a first-come, first-served basis as students bring in their permission forms and fee. Forms are to be turned in to Mrs. Villa in the SG room with the exact amount in payment. Thank you!

There is one last picture taking for the yearbook, and that is on Monday, Feb. 25. Any students who did not yet take a photo for the yearbook should let Mrs. Villa (yearbook advisor) know that he/she needs a pass for this Picture Day. New students who entered MMS after October 19, 2018, will need to take a photo on Feb. 25 since they missed all previous picture days. There is no charge to take a yearbook photo. Mrs. Villa can be reached at 831-7857. See attachment for yearbook order form. Thank you :)

As part of Be Kind, Be Respectful Month, MMSSA is supporting the American Heart Association with a charity drive. Teams are challenging each other to see who can collect the most POSITIVE points with loose change. Each team has a collection jar. All coins in that jar ADD points, but all dollar bills SUBTRACT points. The grade with the most POSITIVE points wins TWO spirit points. The team with the most POSITIVE points wins treats! The Challenge ends this Friday, Feb. 15. Please bring in all your loose change! It's for a good cause :)

Congratulations go out to our MMS Math Team who competed in the MATHCOUNTS tournament this past Saturday and placed 9th out of 37 schools. They gave up their free time to practice during advisory, lunch, and after school until 4pm...even on Fridays! We also would like to thank their coach, Mrs. Mew, who not only had to prepare these students but also spearheaded our National Junior Honor Society and the recent Math Family Night. Math Team is Calista Ancog, Jade Chan, Yannie Cheung, Cody Chun, Andrew Hoang, Samuel Leuthner, Yen Han Lin, and Kaitlyn Takawawa.
