MTMS Wolf Wire

Hello, Timberwolves.

Next week we will be finishing up State Testing with 8th grade science and makeups for those that have missed ELA or Math tests. This also means one more week of block scheduling. While reviewing grades this week with counselors we noticed that several students are missing assignments. Please take some time to sit down with your student to look at Skyward. If an assignment is marked as missing ask them to explain the assignment to you. If the assignment is in Canvas have then show you that it is completed and submitted. If your student tells you that they have already completed the assignment and turned it in then have them email the teacher to verify that it has been turned in and is waiting to be graded.

Thank you for your continued support.

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Our district is seeking your input as we plan for the future of our Career and Technical Education (CTE)/Pathway programs for students.

CTE /Pathway programs provide students with hands-on learning experiences and opportunities to explore careers, earn certifications, and prepare for college and the workforce. We are also exploring ways to expand programming to better meet student needs and interests.

Your feedback will help guide decisions about:

• Expanding current programs such as health science, construction, manufacturing, and more

• Adding potential new programs like aviation, agriculture, and supply chain & logistics

Illness

To help control the spread of illness in our school please follow these illness guidelines:

Fever-Keep student home until fever free for 24 hours without the use of medication

Vomiting, Diarrhea, GI upset-keep home until symptom free for 24 hours without the use of medication.

Respiratory Virus Illness (Covid, Influenza, RSV): Stay home until both are true, fever free for 24 hours without medication and symptoms are getting better.

When reporting your student absent due to illness please give a brief description of the illness such as sore throat, fever, vomiting, flu, strep throat. This will help with illness tracking and reporting to the health department. If reporting Influenza (Flu) please indicate the type of Flu such as Influenza A or Influenza B or tested with home test.

Please remember to report absences and late arrivals to the school by 8:30 a.m. You may call the school attendance line at 913-422-5854 or use the online absence reporting form. The school will call to follow-up with unreported absences after 8:30. Students arriving tardy after 7:55 must enter through the front office doors (you are not required to escort late students inside, but if your student is late due to an appointment, please report it to the office in advance so their attendance is appropriately marked).

Due to staffing transitions, the MT office will close each day at 3:30pm (phones and physical office). We are available by phone from 7:35am until 3:30pm each school day. If you need to speak with us outside of these hours, please reach out via email.
