We have two students on Team 6A who are standout examples of kindness and positivity. Elle Kaegi and Ryan Orwig are incredibly patient with their peers, always taking the time to help explain concepts or offer support to others. They help create a welcoming and inclusive classroom. Their willingness to lend a hand and treat everyone with respect has not gone unnoticed. Whether working in groups or on individual tasks, they consistently lead by example with their generosity and upbeat attitudes. Thank you, Elle and Ryan, for leading by example!

Team 6B is proud to announce our November Leaders of the Month: Sienna Snyder and Colin Scott! Both Sienna and Colin exemplify this month’s theme of citizenship through their consistent respect for others. They are always willing to help classmates, demonstrate respect toward their teachers and friends, and display exemplary character. Sienna and Colin are true role models for our MJS school community. Your teachers are proud of you both—congratulations!

November is a month of gratitude, and 7A teachers approached the Thanksgiving holiday feeling especially thankful for two individuals:  Charlotte Joiris and Brady Smith exude quiet confidence, and they work well with classmates across the board. We are so impressed with their diligence and focus in class, and they set a wonderful example for others around them.  Yay, Charlotte & Brady!

Team 7B couldn’t be more proud of their November leaders of the month - Elizabeth Wendrychowicz and Cole Chaput. 

Elizabeth is a kind and considerate person whose work ethic stands out to each and every one of her teachers. We admire her perseverance and determination to be the best she can be and appreciate the great attitude she has each and every day. 

One thing the 7B teachers know they can count on is Cole coming to class every day with a smile on his face and willingness to participate. He is a leader amongst his peers and his teachers admire his good nature and great sense of humor.

Congratulations Elizabeth and Cole!

Paige consistently puts effort into her assignments and is willing to collaborate with anyone. Her friendly and encouraging demeanor makes her a pleasure to work with.

Jack approaches his studies with focus and works well with his peers. His positive and cooperative outlook helps create a supportive atmosphere.

Gianna is a quiet leader, showing us all that leadership isn’t always about words—it’s about consistent action. She models the behaviors of a successful student with hard work and preparation. Every day, she keeps her head down and focuses on what is expected, leading by example and inspiring others to follow suit. Gianna's demonstrates that true leadership often shines brightest in its consistency.

He is responsible, always prepared and consistently meets the highest standards of performance. Our orchestra would not be the same without him!

Sofia Malaxos is our Leader of the Month for CHORUS! A soprano in our 7th Grade Chorus, Sofia is a student who is always doing her best during rehearsal, assisting with class procedures, and helping others learn. Sofia knows when to work hard and when to have fun, and always works as a great team player around her peers.
