MJP Students
desire to create warm homes for our animal friends
Greetings MJP Families!!!
We
are continuing to “Pay It Forward” with our “Doing the Right Thing”
Challenge. The enthusiasm and excitement
of helping others has become so contagious that even our Chief Academic
Superintendent, Dr. Eileen De Los Reyes, was inspired to bring it back to her
office!
Ms.
Daniels’, our Science Specialist, is leading an initiative to help animals that
have been rescued. We are asking
families to contribute towels and blankets to support comfortable sleeping
quarters for animals whose home are inside animal shelters. If you could "spare some change" we will take that too! :) If you can help us to help our animal
friends, we would appreciate it.

MJP
International Potluck Literacy Night
The MJP is
COOOOOOOOOOOKING up a good time on Thursday, December 19th from 4:00
– 6:30 p.m. We are hosting our infamous
International Potluck Literacy Night. We
are doing arts and crafts, eating delicious foods from all over the world,
listening to amazing guest readers, and much much more. We are giving away cool books and even
raffling off a few baskets!
We would appreciate it if
families would bring a nice dish to share with other families that night. It will be a great way to build a sense of
community and get to know our families and friends from the Michael J. Perkins!

Urban
Nutcracker
Unfortunately we will not
be able to take the school to the Urban Nutcracker because we were not able to
meet an internal deadline. We are
saddened by this and will do much better the next time. Teachers will be
sending home your child’s money. Please
do not be discouraged. We will have another chance to do this again real soon!
If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Martin. Thanks. Have a great winter break!J
