Sports:
Sports practices are starting this week. Cross Country starts today after school, please meet in the hallway by the gym.
Tennis, Field Hockey and boys soccer will begin Tuesday. Soccer practices are on our field and field hockey and tennis will need to get on the shuttle which leaves at 2:50 from the bus loop.
Girls soccer will begin on Wednesday.
Brown Elementary has asked us to remind students to not come on school grounds as they leave Mahoney in the afternoon. There is a lot of activity as the elementary students are dismissed and the adults are helping the younger students hop on the right bus or make their way to their parents. Thank you for reinforcing this with your student.
The cafeteria is open for breakfast everyday until 8:25. Please know that only those that are eating breakfast should be in the cafeteria at this time.
Would you like to set up a lunch account for your student? Does your student need more money on his/her account? Head to myschoolbucks.com to take care of this!
