MMS Connections Program
Every Thursday, students participate in the Connections program, which groups every student with a teacher. The goal is to support students’ social, emotional, and academic needs during the middle school years. This year there is a greater focus on community involvement, including decorating Starbucks cup sleeves, writing thank-you letters to our troops, and sending birthday cards to a veteran. We are currently working with Children’s hospital to create shoe decorating kits for teens at the hospital. We are seeking donations through an online campaign at the link below. Thank you in advance for your support!

Help Support Period Positivity at MMS

It is our goal to help our girls feel more confident as they navigate the changes they face during the middle school years. Donations can be dropped off in the office.
