Early Dismissal on Friday and Spring Break next week

John Muir Service Day on Saturday, March 28^th
John Muir Service Day will take place on Saturday, March 28^th from 9am to noon.  It is a great way for students and parents to give back to Muir, beautify the campus, and earn service hours.

Mindful Monday Minute
Every Monday our students do a Social-Emotional Learning activity in their Muir Time class.  We encourage you to follow up with your student on what they discussed.

Today in Muir’s Mindful Monday we continued to talk about teamwork.  Students investigated ways in which they can show up for their peers.  Consider delving into this at home.  How do we show up for each other?  Are there ways your family could improve? Ask your child to share ways they show up for classmates at school.
