News for families of Margarita Middle School

Message from the Principal

Finish February Strong!

Thank you for arriving early and making sure scholars are in their seats and working by 7:55 a.m. when the first bell rings. Attendance matters, we look forward to celebrating your success.

I am reminded that we are better together and "You have a place in this world. You matter. You belong". The backbone of success is knowing at Margarita Middle School, You Belong! Thank you for your amazing support of Margarita Middle School.

Do you have a question, concern, or need to connect with us, call or email so we can work together for excellence.

Don't Forget these weekly habits.

Check Weekly Grades. Make sure school and learning expectations are met each week before electronics and rewards are released. When all of us work together to expect our scholars to complete and improve, our scholars respond with academic improvement and excellence.

Get involved, start a club, & try something new. Whether it is NJHS, Intramural Teams, Peer Leadership, or Unified Sports, activate your learning through getting involved.

Practice Gratitude. Being Mustang Strong includes being grateful. Be thankful and become a giver. Buy Cookies for a Cause for $5 this Wednesday 2/26.
