Today was high-energy at MJHS! We were thrilled to host Matt Wilhelm, who wowed students and staff alike with his incredible BMX stunts. Beyond the excitement, Matt shared a powerful message on resilience, perseverance, and the importance of kindness. Check out the photos below, and be sure to ask your student which part of the message stuck with them the most!
Mrs. Salo’s 7th Grade History classes took a trip around the world without ever leaving the classroom! Students each selected a country to research and explored the holidays and traditions celebrated there.
To share their learning, students displayed their findings on boxes that looked like wrapped presents, filled with facts, traditions, and cultural significance. They then presented their “gifts” to the class, teaching one another about how people celebrate across the globe.
This was a fun, festive way to build cultural awareness, research skills, and presentation confidence!
Happy Holiday!!!
