Welcome back students!

Hope everyone had a great holiday.

This is an important week in education. The District, School Board, Teachers and District Personnel are all asking that you contact your local representatives and let them know the schools need money to continue the successful programs that we currently offer. There are letters at the school sites that you can sign and the schools will fax them to our representatives. We are also having a rally downtown Mariposa on May 13th, from 4 to 5:30. Please come and support the school district in requesting our representatives to get funding to the schools.

This week eighth graders are practicing for the May 24th Constitution Test. This is an eighth grade requirement. Your child has a study guide, on yellow paper, that will help he/she be successful on the test. Please help your child study a little each night so they are prepared. There will be lunch workshops, Tuesday, May 10, Thursday, May 12 and Friday, May 13. Please encourage your child to attend these Constitution workshops. The workshops are designed to help your child pass the Constitution Test.

On April 21 Mariposa Middle School sent home progress reports with your child. Please contact the school if you did not get a progress report. We can print out a new progress report for you.
