Important announcement! Next year Mariposa County Unified School District will be requiring all students receive a whooping cough immunization before starting the 2011/2012 school year. Please contact your doctor or contact Mariposa County Health Department 966-3689.

Mariposa Middle School is currently working on STAR testing. Mariposa teachers and staff want to acknowledge all the hard work our students are doing on this test. They are taking it seriously and really putting lots of effort into the test. Please have your child get a good night's sleep and eat breakfast. We will be testing Monday and Tuesday of next week and doing make-ups Wednesday through Friday

We are currently part way through the fourth and last quarter of the school year. We will be sending progress reports home on Thursday, April 21. Please ask your student for his/her progress report. Remember you can also see grades on line. If you have lost your students password and code have them ask a teacher for that information.

Seventh and Eighth grade parents keep checking the homework calendar on the Mariposa web page. It will help you know what homework your student needs to be completing each day.

Constitution Test is coming! On April 18th the eighth graders will begin practicing for the Constitution Test. Our district requires that each eighth grader pass the Constitution Test. Ms. Gallagher will be handing out student study guides on April 18th and will begin lunch workshops to help students practice for the test. If you have any questions or concerns please call our school 742-0320 and ask for Ms. Gallagher
