As we wrap up September, we want to take a moment to celebrate all the growth, learning, and community we’ve experienced this month! Our students have settled into routines, built new friendships, and worked hard each day. Thank you for your continued support, encouragement, and partnership as we begin to settle into the rhythm of the school year. We’re excited for all that October has in store!

It’s been an exciting time for the MPJH Band, and we’re proud to share some of the great things our students have been up to!

Our band students recently had the opportunity to participate in two 8th Grade Nights, supporting our future classmates as they prepare to join the Magnolia ISD high schools.

On Friday, September 4, our students traveled to Magnolia West High School to celebrate and support the 8th graders who will attend MWHS next year. Then, on Friday, September 18, we headed to Magnolia High School to cheer on the students who will be joining MHS.

Both events were filled with energy, school spirit, and plenty of fun! Our students did a fantastic job representing the MPJH Band and showing their support for the next generation of high school band students.

Football

On Monday our 7th grade football teams played against Grand Lakes JH, our C team started off the night with a 20 to 14 victory. The B team stayed undefeated on the season with another victory 19 to 18. The A team had their first loss of the year by losing a close game 6 to 0.

Tuesday, the 8th grade teams all traveled to Grand Lakes and played three hard games. All taking their first losses of the season. We look to get back on track next week when we take on Creekside Park JH!
