It is my pleasure to announce we are hosting the 5th annual MVMS Veterans Day Breakfast on November, 12th beginning at 8:30 am. The breakfast is open to all veterans and their families in our community. Students and staff members who have a veteran coming to the breakfast will have the opportunity to eat with them. The breakfast will be student-led and feature members from the 8th grade social studies classes, Band, Orchestra, Social Studies, and Work and Family Life. We will get the whole school involved by having them participate in generating awareness of the event, fundraising, and decorations, as well as participating in learning opportunities during Social Studies classes. The invitation for the breakfast is above. You can register for the event by going to link on the invitation, clicking the button below, or by calling 740-392-6867.

The Jacket Closet
Did you know MVMS has a Jacket Closet? It’s a discrete, caring space where students can pick up the things they need—no questions asked.
What’s inside the Jacket Closet?
Clothing such as shirts, shorts, pants, and winter coats and hats
Shoes
Hygiene products
School supplies, including paper, pens, pencils, and calculators
Snacks
The Jacket Closet is all about making sure our students are comfortable, confident, and ready to learn every day. If your child could use something from the Jacket Closet, all they need to do is reach out to a trusted staff member.
We are proud to have this resource in place and are thankful for the generosity of those who help keep it stocked. Together, we can make sure all of our students have what they need to thrive.
