***Mission Activities Calendar for 9/14 - 9/19***

HOMECOMING WEEK - GO BULLDOGS!!!

The Mission Community has suffered the heartbreaking loss of one of our students. Our thoughts are with the student’s family, friends, classmates, and all those in our school community who are grieving this loss.

Please know that additional counselors and support staff are available on campus this week. They are working diligently to support our students, staff, and families as we navigate this difficult time together.

We encourage families to check in with their children and to reach out to the school if their child needs additional support.

We ask that everyone please respect the privacy of the student’s family and those most closely affected by this loss.

Our Mission Community is strong, caring, and deeply connected. During the days ahead, we will continue to look after one another and make sure our students know they are surrounded by people who care about them.

The regular scheduled school board meeting for tomorrow September 15th will be cancelled and rescheduled for next Tuesday, Sept. 22 at 7pm in the high school library.

Free BBQ tonight at 6pm! Everyone is welcome to join.

On the 25th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, some of Mrs. Schilling's History and Government students spent time with the teachers in the building, asking them about their personal memories and experiences about that day. All of the kids involved did a great job learning about what 9/11 meant to people when it happened and how it still affects our lives today. Leaving class, they came out with new perspectives and reminders of why we discuss and memorialize this day and those who were lost each year.

The middle school and high school students were fortunate to have Dougie Hall come to the school and speak to our students. Dougie is a Browning graduate and U of M Western Alumni. He is currently an actor on Landman, was on Yellowstone and 1923, in several movies as an actor or stunt person and he owns his own stock contracting company. He spoke about his life growing up, the movie business, overcoming adversity, family issues, and looking at life from a different angle. Huge thanks to CSKT Tribal Health for making this opportunity possible, and covering all costs to bring Dougie to our school!

The Middle School celebrated the Grand Opening of the outdoor green space/playground. We had an amazing turnout and many of the workers, donors and community partners were able to attend and be recognized. Every student in the middle school personally thanked the donors and helpers who were in attendance. It was a good day to be a Bulldog!

***ATTENTION***

The NFHS camera in our new gym has been very unstable the last few weeks. We've done just about everything in our power to get it up and running. At times it works just fine, others it won't work at all. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up, there's a decent chance it won't be working for the volleyball games tonight! I'm going to keep working on it, but if you go to watch the game and can't find it or the screen is just black... that's what is going on!

Sorry for the hassle. Hopefully it cooperates tonight!

Elementary Homecoming dress up days!
Homecoming week is September 15 - September 18.
Homecoming parade is Friday, September 18 at 1:30pm.

Reminder - no school Monday September 14!

Go Bulldogs!

As we wind down Labor Day weekend, we're proud of our families for making the effort to get your kids to school. Our attendance is outstanding, all three schools above 95% attendance, and we want to keep that rolling. When students attend regularly, they are more likely to read proficiently by third grade, do well in middle school and graduate on time! Where will your child land with their attendance this year? Talk with them and make a plan as we start the year. Go Bulldogs!

These local Mission MS Heroes found and saved a missing person yesterday afternoon. They will be on the KPAX Channel 8 news tonight at 5:30pm. When you find someone in pain and in need of help, you help. Thank you Xander, River and Arnold for representing family, school and community.
