Something spook-tacular has happened on Team 6A! While most students were busy dodging ghosts, goblins, and mountains of homework, two students rose from the pumpkin patch of greatness to claim the title of Team 6A’s Leaders of the Month! Give a big boo-tiful round of applause to Tyler Ellis and Annabelle Daley! These two have cast powerful spells of kindness and respect throughout the halls, showing what real leadership looks like! Whether it’s helping classmates, showing respect to teachers, or turning in frighteningly good work, Tyler and Annabelle have proven that hard work and positive energy can outshine even the creepiest cobwebs. 🕸️So beware—because their glow-in-the-dark work ethic and monster-level motivation might just inspire YOU to step up next month! Congrats, Tyler and Annabelle—you’ve truly haunted us with your awesomeness! 

Team 6B is proud of our October Leaders of the Month: Holly Bolton and Brendan Patani.  Both Holly and Brendan 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.  Holly and Brendan, our MJS community are so lucky to have you both as leaders!  

November is a time of gratitude, and as 7A teachers reflect on the accomplishments of our October leaders of the month, we are very grateful for the positive energy that Sofia Raichand and Piero Carranza bring to our classroom each day.  Sofia is ambitious and sets a great example for others around her by actively participating in class.  Piero's quiet but focused approach to classwork enables him to get the most out of each day's class, and he's quick to incorporate lesson content into his own work. We are so proud of Sofia and Piero's efforts.  Congratulations, and keep it up!

Team 7B is recognizing Noah Scheiner and SJ Bibbee as October Leaders of the Month. Noah is super respectful and kind to all. He always comes to class with a positive attitude and can be relied upon to do whatever is asked of him.  Noah is incredibly self-disciplined and is very considerate, not only of his teachers but also of his peers. SJ is also someone who consistently shows her respect, friendliness, and consideration for others in her school community.  She works well with others in class and is always willing to lend a helping hand.  Both Noah and SJ are great communicators and true role models for others. Team 7B is extremely proud of both Noah Scheiner and SJ Bibbee as our Leaders of the Month!

Team 8A would like to acknowledge Merit Santana Rodriguez and Cole Chaput as our Leaders of the Month for October. Both of these students embody the value of respect. They are kind and welcoming to their peers. They interact positively with their teachers and school staff. And they consistently make our school a better place simply by being thoughtful, helpful, and always willing to do what is right. We are proud to recognize Merit and Cole for leading by example and showing us what respect looks like in action each day.

Team 8 B is recognizing two students who are quite polite and respectful. They do not just take care of their classroom responsibilities, but are willing go above and beyond. Whether it’s straightening up the classroom or ensuring that their group is working well, they can be counted on in a variety of situations. Both of these students have impressed their teachers with respectful interactions. Congratulations to Avery Bryan and Lucas Vaccaro for being our October leaders of the month!
