MMS HSA News - Week 3
MAPLEWOOD MIDDLE SCHOOL HOME & SCHOOL ASSOCIATION
Welcome to the third week of school!
This week we have Back to School Night on Thursday with doors opening at 6:35 p.m. and classroom visits starting at 7:10 p.m. We will need a few parent volunteers to help out with the MMS HSA table - a Sign-up Genius will go out shortly. Also, we are helping out MMS with Assistant Principal interviews this week. The hope is to bring on a new AP by Thanksgiving!

Finally, we have a special note in this week's newsletter on who does what in our public school to help you navigate the system. 

Hope to see you on Thursday!
