News for families of Margarita Middle School

Message from the Principal

Welcome to an Amazing March!

Get Ready! A lot of learning and growth will take place this month. Thank you for building scholars who are Ready to Learn. It is so encouraging to see scholars change and improve their attendance. Try embracing the truths:

"Showing up is half the battle, " and
“Success is not about being the best. It's about showing up when others choose to stay home.”
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". 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.

Important Mustang Reminders:

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.

Spring 2025 Parent Conferences 3/13/25. Join us in the Mustang Auditorium from 3-5 pm. If your scholar is thriving, use this day to celebrate with them instead of a parent conference.

Progress Reports 3/20/25. This 9 Progress Report is the halfway point of the semester.

3 Weeks before Spring Break 2025 March 22-April 6. We return to school on April 7.

Our entire Mustang Team is here to support you and your scholar in making March a month a filled with Mustang STRONG.

Thank you for your help in making the Margarita Family so great!
