February 2018

6th grade students from Barnett, Spring Lake, Goshen, Wilson, and Taylor Elementary Schools were welcomed to MNJHS today, February 28th. 6th Grade Day gave these students a chance to come to our school, take a look around, and get a small glimpse into what 7th grade will be like. Our incoming 2018/2019 class was greeted by our band students playing for them.  6th graders were then introduced to our Student Council, Orchestra Department, Drama Department, Sports Departments, Art Department and Choir Department. The dreaded subject of vaccinations required for 7th grade admission was also addressed by our school nurse.  Our Counseling Department then spoke to students about registration and other fun activities available at Mt. Nebo. 

We were so excited to meet these new students and can't wait to see them again in the Fall!  If you have an incoming 6th grade student, make sure to turn their registration packets in by this Friday.
