This past weekend MDJH students in the Duke of Edinburgh program braved the elements for an outdoor hike. Many thanks to our guides and chaperones!

As a part of a drama unit in English Language Arts, the grade 7-2 class decided to present an abridged version of Macbeth. They received the scripts, reviewed them, auditioned, and then practiced it all over and over. Eventually, they performed for Ms. Pike, Ms. Hardy, Ms. Watton, and Ms. Ward. Everyone had a role whether it was on the stage or behind the scenes. It was a great way to end classes on April 18! A wonderful time was had by all. Mrs. Mills and Ms. Bartlett were very proud of all their students.

Dear Parents/Guardians:

Over the Easter break, PowerSchool was moved to a cloud environment with a new domain. As a result, you will have to update the PowerSchool mobile app on your mobile device. Click here for a guide on how to update the PowerSchool mobile app so it syncs with the new server.
