Physical Education: Happy Holidays, Falcon Parents!

 
You are receiving this email because your student is currently signed up to take second semester PE.  We are looking forward to meeting new students and also seeing a lot of our kiddos back with us again from this past semester!  When you have a chance, some time over the next two weeks, we would appreciate if you would visit the link provided below and go through the course policies for PE with your student(s).  This will help us with a smoother transition back the first week.  (We ask that you please complete the course policies for January 2018 even if your student has been with us before.)
Course Policies:  https://tinyurl.com/CPs-MMS-PE-Jan2018
I'm sure you're all ready for a little time off and hope you enjoy some R&R with your families, near and far.  Have a wonderful and restful holiday...

Dear MUSD Parents/Guardians:

Happy Holidays! On behalf of the Governing Board and District Administration, I extend our warmest wishes for the holiday season and thank you for your continued support of our District. This special time of year is a wonderful time to celebrate with family and friends.

The Marana Unified School District is pleased to be a part of this community and thanks you for placing your trust in us. The degree to which a school district thrives is dependent on the level of support received and the tireless dedication of so many. Thank you for your active role in the success of our students, our staff, and our schools. With everyone's active involvement and support, we will continue to make our schools even greater in the New Year.

As we reflect upon the past several months and all that we have to be thankful for, we also look forward to the New Year and the endless opportunities that await our District. We will begin 2018 with high expectations and a strong commitment to providing 21st century learning environments, offering a deeper level of engagement and limitless opportunities for our students to achieve academic and personal excellence.

Thank you for your continued support. Best wishes for a safe and happy holiday season.

Principal Message
Falcon Families,
The end of the 1st semester is near! We have accomplished so many great things as a community. Our students have performed in the classroom, on the stage, and on athletic fields. They have learned many lessons and continue grow and improve. We can't wait to see what the second half of the year has in store for the Falcon Community! 
 
I wish you all a wonderful holiday season.  Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!
Falcon Shout-Out & Celebration
I would like to recognize Mrs. Angela Taylor for the work she has done with our Code to the Future program.  Students
are learning skills that will prepare them for the job market of tomorrow.  Mrs. Taylor worked diligently to prepare for the
CTTF Epic Build Showcase and it was a HUGE success! Thanks to all the parents who joined us to see the innovative projects our kids created. 
Athletics


Falcon Family Athletes: It's time to register your students for 3rd Quarter Athletics! Available sports for 3rd quarter include Boys Soccer, Girls Basketball, and Wrestling. The deadline for online registration is December 15th. Payment is due by November 21st. The cost for each sport is 60.00. To participate in athletics, students must complete a RegisterMyAthlete profile, submit a sports physical, and pay.

Counseling Corner

COUNSELOR'S CORNER:
Today was the last day for students to submit a schedule change request form for their elective classes for 2nd semester. Please contact our office if you have any questions about your child's schedule. 

We are also scheduling groups for the 3rd quarter. If you would like more information about the groups we have available for our students, please contact the counseling department at 682-4715

PBIS: Positive Behavior Intervention Support

MMS consistently works to establish a climate that encourages and enables students, teachers, and parents and/or guardians to report any potential threats.

We ensure that students understand that when reporting a fellow classmate's concerning behavior, the goal is intervention, not punishment. We will consistently communicate to students that all threats of violence should be reported even if they feel it is not a "real" threat. 


Marana Middle School will provide an experience that fosters life-long academic and personal growth in a world-class education environment. Faculty and staff will collaborate with families, students and the community to develop strong, caring and productive leaders.
