Hey Mav’s: It’s cold out there! Have you lost your jacket, a water bottle, a binder? There are a bunch of lost and found items! Please come and look for your missing items outside of Student Services, THEY MISS YOU, before they are donated Monday!

Hey 6th period lunch students: Mrs. Miller is hosting a glitter tattoos meet and eat this Wednesday during 6th period lunch. Sign up during homeroom!

Attention Student Council members: This Tuesday is our monthly meeting. If you have not obtained your hall pass from Miss Phillips, please do so TODAY! You will not be able to attend the meeting without a pass. Thank you and see you then!

Mavericks: It's that time of year again! Beginning this Monday November 15th and running through December 8th, Murphy Junior High School in conjunction with the Oswego Fire Protection District will be participating in the Annual Toys for Tots Program. Murphy Junior High will be collecting NEW toys to donate to families in the community who are currently having financial difficulties. Gifts should be $10 and up, unwrapped and can be for children of all ages. Donated gifts should be something similar to what you would like to receive for the holiday so please keep that in mind! Here's how to win!!! First and foremost, you need to donate NEW GIFTS that are priced $10 and up! Students should bring all the toys to their homeroom rep in exchange for a raffle ticket. Raffle tickets will need to be filled out with your first and last name as well as grade level. Each homeroom's toys for tots representative will then enter you into a raffle on December 8th where 15 lucky winners will have the chance to serve as Murphy’s "elves for the day" WITH A FRIEND OF CHOICE. These elves will win the chance to attend this year’s Toys for Tots Pizza Party and will help load up Murphy's toys with the Oswego Fire Department as well as have their picture taken with the local fire department, which will then be submitted to the local newspaper. This special event will take place on Friday, December 10th during the first half of the school day. Mavericks, do your part over the holiday season and pick up your toy today! The more you donate the better chance you have to participate in this special event!!

Make it a great day Mavericks!
