Shoutout to our MJH Blackcats for earning Positive Office Referrals! 🐾❤️ These students are being recognized for showing great character, leadership, kindness, and going above and beyond on campus. We love celebrating the positive choices our students make every single day! Keep leading the way and making us proud, Blackcats! #MJHBlackcats #PositiveReferrals

Hands-on learning in action! 📊🐾 Our 6th grade math students recently tackled number lines using a whole-class interactive lesson — getting up, moving, collaborating, and truly visualizing math concepts together. Engagement was high, conversations were strong, and learning was happening all around the room! Love seeing our MJH Blackcats thinking, participating, and growing every day. #MJHBlackcats #MathInAction #StudentEngagement

Our Student Council and NJHS students recently came together for a Choose Love community service project, showing what leadership, kindness, and service truly look like in action. From planning to giving back, these students continue to prove that character and compassion matter just as much as academics. Thank you to our sponsor and students for leading with heart and making our community stronger. #ChooseLove #MJHBlackcats #StudentLeadership #ServingOthers
