The MJHS library would like to send out a big thank you to the students, teachers, parents, and community members who stopped by this year's Scholastic Book Fair. We didn't quite meet our sales goal this year, but were very, very close! All proceeds from the fair support new book purchases for the library. Thank you again. It was great to see everyone!

Mrs. Mayberry's first and second grade enrichment class has been reading the book Creepy Carrots. At the conclusion of the book, students were tasked with defining the problem, coming up with a design to keep the carrots in the fence, and then testing their designs. These students worked together, adjusted their designs to fix the flaws, and came up with a fence that would contain the creepy carrots (pumpkins in this case). Well done students! On hand to test the students' designs were Mr. Harridge and Mr. Vance.
