A big THANK YOU to Deb Runyan and Tami Dodd for their generous book donations to the MMJH Library! 📚

Every new book helps us keep our library fresh for students. We are so thankful for your support!

Last Friday, members of the Mary Miller Junior High Student Council spent time spreading kindness in our community by delivering Valentine’s to residents at a local nursing home.

Students loved getting the chance to brighten someone’s day with handmade cards, smiles, and conversations. It was a great reminder that even small acts of kindness can make a big difference. ❤️

We are proud of our Student Council members for representing MMJH and sharing some Valentine’s cheer with others!

The Athletic Booster club is paying for GRHS high school students to go the Lady Buffs Regional Championship on Thursday. Any student interested MUST go to the office by lunch time on Thursday.

There is a Lady Buffs Softball parent meeting tonight at GRHS in the cafeteria at 5:30pm.

Students in our Puzzles Exploratory class have been hard at work putting their problem-solving skills to the test! 🧩

One group is getting close to finishing their Starry Night puzzle, while another student is focused on completing a different design. It’s great to see their patience, teamwork, and persistence come together piece by piece!

📚✨ MMJH Scholastic Book Fair is coming soon! ✨📚
Get ready to stock up on some great reads! Our Scholastic Book Fair will be here in March with both online and in-person shopping options.
🟣 Online Ordering: March 2–15
🟡 Physical Book Fair: March 5–12
📖 After-School Shopping (during conferences): March 12 & 13 | 4:00–7:00 PM
https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/marymillerjuniorhighschool
Please use this link to see more fair details.. We highly recommend setting up an eWallet for your student to avoid cash being lost at school.. The eWallet is great for those family members who are wanting to donate books to a teacher's classroom, you can just add funds to that teacher's eWallet and they are able to use them to pick out books! Also, if there is anyone in the community wanting to contribute, the 'share the fair' feature is a great way to donate funds to support students at our school who need help getting new books. Your contribution helps even more kids take home a book from the Fair!
