Good Morning Mavericks! Today is Tuesday, February 26th, 2019

Attention Mavericks!  The Annual District Math competition is on Thursday March 7th.  Join other 6th, 7th and 8th graders from all 5 junior highs in both a team and individual math competition.  Let’s keep our Trophy and take down Bednarcik again!  See your math teacher for more information and be sure to turn in your sign up form by March 1st.

Hey 8th grade Washington D.C. travelers.  This is just a reminder that the final meeting before our trip is tonight at 6:30pm in the Traughber cafeteria.  Your parents received a letter about this mandatory meeting. Please remember to attend.  All of the important information you need to know about the trip will be given out.  If you can’t make it, please see Ms. Miller in room D121, before Tuesday.  Get excited!  Our trip is only a month away! We will see you Tuesday at 6:30 PM at Traughber.   

It is that time of year again, dodgeball time!  Anyone interested in getting a team together for the 3rd quarter assembly please see one of the P.E teachers. The team must consist of 4 boys and 4 girls, and we will take the first 8 teams to to let us know.  You must get everyone's permission to be on your team.

Reminder to students: The author visit is this Thursday.  Book money for Stolen Girl and/or Making Bombs for Hitler is due this Wednesday to Mrs. Campasano. Students who purchase books are invited to a meet and greet with the author after the presentation to get their books. See your ELA teacher or the LRC for a form.

Hey Mavs!  Saturday March 2nd would be Doctor Seuss’ 115th birthday.  In honor of our upcoming musical, “Seussical,” and of Dr. Seuss’ birthday, the Murphy Drama Department wanted to share some interesting facts about his life throughout the rest of the week.  Did you know that it took Doctor Seuss more than one year to write “Cat in the Hat,” a book that only contains 236 words?!? Honor Doctor Seuss’ 115th birthday by coming out to see the Murphy Drama Department’s production of Seussical the Music on Thursday March 14 or Friday March 15. The show begins at 7PM in the Murphy Cafeteria.  Tickets cost $5 and doors will open at 6:30PM.  There will be a bakesale where all items cost $1.  We hope to see you there!

Hey Mav’s: The mini mall is open for first floor homerooms today! Bring your bullseyes with your name on them after the pledge!

Make it a great day Mavericks!
