Dear Tiger Parents:We had a spectacular day at SJMS, I hope you did too! Thank you to all of the Tiger Dads that made it out to our Donuts with Dads. What a great turn out. Thank you, Mr. Fansler, Mr. Garza, and Mrs. Albertson for all of your help and support. Our Tiger Dads and PTO are the best.
Last night I attended the "Crosstown Showdown" between McKinney North and McKinney High. It was amazing seeing so many current Johnson Tigers and watch our "grown Tigers" beat McKinney North in a nailbiter, 44-42! The best part of the night was seeing so many of our kids out having a great time and showing their Tiger PRIDE. I hope you get to come out to a home game and see our incredible stadium and our amazing community. Below you find information about our SNAP School-Wide Fundraiser! Honestly, this is the best fundraiser for both the school and you. We will not ask you to sell anything or to deliver anything. We simply need you to help set up an email list (20+ emails) that will go out to your extended family and community that you know and are familiar. we will create a video and secure website that explains what we are doing and to thank anyone that makes a donation. Thank you in advance for helping us to support the teachers and our students. I will send out more information this coming week. Yearbooks on are sale now for the lowest price of the year, $35. Right now, this also includes 4 free icons! You can order online through our website, or stop by the front office and fill out a form and include your cash or check. This Friday, September 6th, we will have our fall picture day. You can also stop by the front office to pick up a form to send with your student on picture day or contact Mrs. Griffen @ dgriffen@mckinneyisd.net or 469-302-4900. These are the photos that will be in our yearbook. Get those hair appointments made and have your student pick out their favorite outfit for this day. Carpool has been running really smoothly. Please keep in mind, rain or shine, heat or snow, carpool runs the same procedures. We still pull all the way up to the sign where a teacher is stationed to release kids from cars. Please make sure your child is dressed accordingly. I appreciate all the waves and awesome "good mornings" I am getting from parents and students. Don't forget, we encourage you to bring your pet for the car ride lane, I always have a dog treat waiting for that other special member of your family. Our MISD Annual Crepe Myrtle Run is September 28th. Please plan to come out and support this great community event. We want to win for having the most kids present, so this year, we are going for the win. Can't wait to see you out there!! Next Friday is our first IPR (progress report) grade check. Please make sure your kiddo is checking grades and working to turn in any late work. Per our new campus-wide grading policy, no late work from this first 3 weeks will be accepted past Friday, September 6th. If your child has a "Z" in the grade book, that means it is late work and the "Z" calculates as a zero in the average. After next Friday, those "Z" will become zeros and cannot be made up. You can always check your child's attendance, grades, and much more live in HAC (Home Access Center). Lastly, please go to our SJMS TIGERS WEB PAGE (follow us), SJMS Tiger Facebook Page (like us), and SJMS Twitter Page to stay informed about all things SJMS! This will ensure that you receive all the information that you need to know regarding events, clubs, athletic competitions, concerts, school picture dates, etc. throughout the year. This SMORE newsletter is sent weekly. Please forward it to anyone that you would like to keep informed about all things SJ! September is upon us and hopefully, the cooler weather will follow. With Monday being Labor Day, your child has a three-day weekend. I hope you all have some fun and get some rest...our students and staff have been working hard! I couldn't be more proud of them.
