Mt. Washington Middle School

MWMS families: In compliance with new state law, here is some information about the daily moment of silence. Please discuss this with your students. #ForTheMount #GeneralsLEAD

We are having a great first day! 💜💛 #ForTheMount #GeneralsLEAD

Per the HB 208, students WILL NOT be allowed to use Airpods or wireless headphones for class or have them out during the school day. While the school will have some headphones for students to use, you may want to go ahead and purchase a pair of wired headphones that students can plug into their Chromebook.

Hello MWMS Families:

Car Rider Procedures
Safety is a top priority at MWMS.

Morning car riders will enter through the side of the building. Pull forward as far as you can. Students will be released and enter the building at 7:40.

Afternoon cars will enter the side parking lot from Erin Circle and Crossroads. Kevin Place (road between MWMS and Crossroads) will be blocked off at the pool at 2:50.  There will be no entrance or through traffic. All cars must enter from Erin Circle. Cars will form several lines. There will be no parking on the street. Pull as far forward as possible. Students will be dismissed at 3:00. As soon as all buses have left the front parking lot, cars can exit in both directions on Kevin Place.  

If you have any questions, please contact the school, during regular school hours (7:30 am - 4:00 pm)

Thank you and we look forward to seeing our Generals on the first day of school, Tuesday August 12.

Apologies to Mrs. Spencer for incorrectly spelling her name. Mrs. Spencer and Mr. Talley work in our ECE department. We are very lucky to have them on our team!

MWMS Families...💜💛 *6th grade families…don’t forget about Wednesday's open house. 💜💛 *There will not be an open house prior to the start of the year for 7th and 8th grade. *Hopefully 🤞🤞 team assignments and supply lists will be able to be posted very soon. Students/families need to know team placement/schedule for the supply lists as the lists are specific to each team. 💜💛 *Posts have been made over the last few days with the link to the free/reduced lunch application as well as the link for paying school fees online. 💜💛 #ForTheMount #GeneralsLEAD

For families who do not qualify for the free/reduced lunch service, you can go ahead and pay your annual Chromebook lease fee and other school fees using www.schoolcashonline.com We know everyone is anxiously awaiting supply lists. Until we have the ability to “turn on” Infinite Campus for families to see schedules, the supply lists aren’t going to be helpful. Students will need to know their schedule (teacher placements) so that they can purchase from the correct list. We hope to be able to push this information out early in the week of August 4. We apologize for the delay, but we have no control of Infinite Campus’ rollover. If you have any questions, you can contact the school office Monday through Friday, 8:00-3:00. #ForTheMount #GeneralsLEAD
