MJS Food Drive Complete
MJS Food Drive Complete
In a joint effort between student council and peer leaders, our student body collected over 1,700 non-perishable food items. The student council will bag them up and deliver them to the The Market Street Mission in Morristown. On Monday we will announce the homeroom winner in each grade level who collected the most items. These three homerooms collected 722 items combined! Student council will be throwing each winning homeroom an Ice Cream Party. Ms. Siso, Ms. Kolinchak, Ms. Spangler and Mr. Hom would like to thank everyone who helped make this food dirve a huge success. The Market Street Mission is also very grateful and looking forward to serving many families in our area. A true example of what it means to be MJSONE!

Our lost and found table continues to gather many items. A big thank you to our office secretary, Ms. Kelly for taking the time to organize these items so we can get them back to their owners. Below is a picture of all the items we currently have in our lost and found. If you notice a item that belongs to your child please have them go to the office to check in with Ms. Kelly before picking up their item. Thank you for your assistance in getting these items back to their owners.

Technology Reminder about Student Chromebook Usage
Technology Reminder about Student Chromebook Usage
In Madison, we utilize a 1:1 Chromebook model where all students (grades 6-12) receive a district owned Chromebook to utilize during the school day and at home. While there is no cost for the use of the Chromebook, it is important that Chromebooks be maintained and handled in a responsible way. As we continue to move through the school year, we wanted to utilize this time as a reminder for our students and families about the importance of handling Chromebooks with care to prevent damage to the device. The district has expectations and protocols that are listed on the district website that we continue to follow at the building level.
We would like to highlight the specific section regarding lost and damaged chromebooks as a reminder to all parents and guardians:
In the event a Chromebook, case, or charger is lost or damaged beyond repair and deemed to be intentional, excessive, neglectful or student misuse, parents/guardians are responsible for paying the cost of replacement equipment.
Costs:
Chromebook - $365.00
Charger - $47.00
Case - $20.00
Other - Will be quoted by the Tech Department
Note: Final assessment of damage and fines are determined by the Technology Department.
Students are also responsible for the care of any loaners they use. Damage to loaners is subject to the same rules as permanently assigned Chromebooks.
In case of theft, parents/guardians are required to file a formal police report with the Madison Police Department.
Below are the direct links from the district website that pertains to Chromebook care and protocols followed for lost/damaged Chromebooks.
