Movement: Looks like we can all go outside today!
PHONES: Just a reminder that phones should be off and stored away during the school day. The school day begins when you come into Mahoney and ends at 2:45.
Students please remove your Earbuds/Earpods while in school/in the hallways and classrooms. If a teacher gives you permission to use these in a classroom, please remove them when the class is over.
Spring is finally here! Students who choose to come onto school grounds before the 8:10 bell are asked to wait outside. Students are not to wait inside the 6th grade entrance. If necessary, students are able to wait in the main entrance foyer. If possible, please plan to arrive at 8:10 so you can come right in!
There seems to be an increase in the amount of perfume/Axe and cologne people are using. Please know that there are some students and staff who have asthma and allergies and strong fragrances can cause issues.
Please be mindful of how much perfume or cologne/Axe you use either at home or here at school.
Adults will kindly and privately ask you to use less, if you are not aware yourself. Perhaps your friends will let you know, as well?
