Maturation Program Dates
MMA is hosting a Maturation Program for our 7th & 8th graders.
Consent forms have been sent home with the Junior High students. There are options on the form of what you grant permission to. If you choose to not have your child participate, there is an option to check that as well. Please look over it & send it back to school with your child. They need to be returned to Ms Jaime by Wednesday, February 18th. Planned Parenthood of Utah (Approved provider by the State of Utah) will be presenting the information.
Parents are invited to attend if they would like to come.

Also, don’t forget to order the 2014-2015 Hardcover Yearbook (Not for Junior High). Early bird order season is past but it isn’t too late to order. Yearbook orders are available until April 28, 2015. Yearbooks are $25 this year, $30 if you want your student’s name on the cover. This year’s book is amazing, plus it will last for a long time because it will have a HARDCOVER on it instead of the soft/paper cover we are used to. The hardcover and the additional pages is why it is $5 more than years past.
Parent Teacher Conference Reminder
Don’t forget to sign up for Parent Teacher Conferences.
We would love to meet with you and your child.
They will be Feb. 10-12.
