Tickets are being sent home today. We would like all students to take at least one booklet of 10 tickets.

Food Drive – May 24 to May 27
The Gonzaga Student Mental Health Coalition is totally pumped to announce that they have partnered with 5 schools including MDJH!! We are coming together for a week-long food drive to help combat Food Insecurity. Parents and community members, please drop food items at the MDJH office.
Grade 9 Graduating class.
As the school year comes to a close, we are reaching out to our Grade 9 students to propose a legacy project for this year’s graduates. We are asking Grade 9 students to leave a memento of their time here by donating some pocket change, so we can purchase a picnic table to complement our outdoor classroom. It will have a plaque inscribed with “Donated by the 2022 Grade 9 Graduating Class.” Money will be collected by the homeroom teacher.
