Dear Parent or Guardian,
Beginning today 9/13, we will require a quarantine note from a health professional for your child when you request homework for them. Once we have the note, we will alert teachers and you can pick up their work the day after your request. Do not email the teachers directly for homework assignments.
Quarantine absences will be considered unexcused unless they have a note from a health professional. Parent notes will be accepted as well but only for 5 days in each semester.
Thanks for helping us make our school year as normal as possible and making our school a great place for students.
John P. Rogers
Principal

STEAM at MMS
These are just a few pictures taken from classrooms at MMS this week. The theme is STEAM. Pictures are of students from Science, Technology, the Arts, and Math class. Great things are happening the first week of school at MMS.
Harrison County Schools has become aware of an announcement circulating that our District is closed next week.
This is simply not true.
We look forward to seeing our students in the classroom on Tuesday morning after the Labor Day Holiday.
Bandland will beat MMS tonight with Mr. Cale to help students try different instruments to see what might best suit them. They will also have some instruments for rent and for sale. 6th Grade Band members are encouraged to attend the event, which is from 5:00 until 7:00.
I would also suggest that if your child would like to be in band but doesn't have it on their schedule to come as well, and for them to send a note with their child in the morning to add band to their schedule.
🤒DO NOT SEND YOUR STUDENT TO SCHOOL IF... 🤧
➡️The student tests positive for COVID-19
➡️Someone in the household tests positive for COVID-19
➡️The student is waiting for send away tests results
➡️The student is exhibiting COVID-19 symptoms
🚨Positive cases must isolate for 10 days even if they do not have symptoms.
🚨Students who stay home sick need to return to school with a Note.
If you meet any of these, please contact the Harrison-Clarksburg Health Department for further guidance.

🤒DON'T FEEL WELL? 🤧
Students should stay home if they are sick. Tell your mom, dad, or caregiver before you come to school. Tell your teacher or an adult if you become sick at school.

↘️A Message from Healthy Grandfamilies ↙️
Ladies and Gentlemen,
After much checking around and discussion, we have decided to postpone the live Healthy Grandfamily Sessions until March.
Grandfamilies are helping their grandchildren adjust to being back in school, some are concerned about gathering due to the upswing in COVID cases and some have some other conflicts at this time.
We will continue to meet the information and training needs of the Grandfamilies by phone calls, face to face socially distanced home visits and the Grandparents as Parents Support Group.
In January, we will start recruiting and planning for our Sessions to begin in March.
The COVID-19 Reporting Numbers dashboard on the website contained out-of-date information and does not reflect current cases in our schools.
Harrison County Schools is not currently providing a COVID-19 Reporting Numbers dashboard.
We apologize for the confusion.
Just a reminder that we begin a new school year tomorrow. Please make sure your child has a mask to wear, since it is required. Please make sure that they bring their iPad with them as well and that it is fully charged. We are excited to have everyone back and ready to learn.
