An assembly was held on Thursday afternoon to congratulate one of our students, who won the 2017 Telegram Regional Spelling Bee. Representatives from The Telegram were on hand to present Vincent Burton with his trophy, and to wish him well as he heads off to Washington, D.C., to compete in the Scripps National Spelling Bee.

On behalf of everyone at MDJH, well done!  Good luck in Washington!

As we approach the end of another school year, teachers will soon be collecting back in the books that were distributed to students throughout the year. If a student has lost or damaged their textbook, they are responsible for reimbursing the school for the cost of a replacement book. For parents and guardians who are looking for the cost of a replacement book, please consult the attached lists. They are broken down into English K-8, English 9-12,

• English 7-8
• English 9-12
• French Immersion K-8
• French Immersion 9-12

Congratulations to the Grade 9 Girls Basketball Team on taking Silver this past weekend in the Junior High Basketball League B Championship!
