As evenings darken, the sun dips low,
But two bright stars continue to glow.
Victoria Cohen and Augusto Alves, our shining lights,
Bring warmth to Team 6A, day and night.

They step into class with smiles so bright,
Kindness and effort, a radiant sight.
With positivity, their spirits soar,
Inspiring others to strive for more.

Like sunshine breaking through clouds of gray,
They lift us up in their own special way.
Helping friends to grow and reach their best,
They make our school shine above the rest.

Congratulations to Victoria & Augusto!

Team 6B is proud of our October leaders of the month: Jake Dubman and Kira Goldshvartz.  Both Jake and Kira exemplify respect in so many ways.  They are kind and respectful to their friends and classmates, teachers, and the school community as a whole.  We all appreciate how you give respect to everyone around you, along with understanding and kindness.  Kira and Jake, our MJS community are so lucky to have you both as leaders!

Fun Fact:  7A's leaders for October both have super-developed arm muscles -- that's because they ALWAYS are raising their hands.  From asking curious questions to sharing their bright insights, Zuhayr Fakhar and Sophia Blanco are always moving the conversations forward in all their classes.
