Here are the Highlights from the Weekly School Messenger Call for the Week of November 7th!

We hope that everyone has had a great weekend and fell back with the time change! Speaking of time, there is still time to improve your semester grade that will be on your transcript!

This week is Veterans Day and on behalf of the JWMHS Faculty and Staff, we want to thank all who have served in our military. We have a number of active and former military members on our staff and we are so grateful for their service.

Wednesday, November 10th is an Early Release Day! Students will end their school day at 12:56PM.

We have started our Thanksgiving Canned Food Drive! Each RANCH will have a box where students can bring in items that we will donate to different families in the community. Please bring in non-perishable items. Please donate if you can!

In December, we will do our traditional “Baby It’s Cold Outside” baby clothes and baby items drive. We will start this after the Thanksgiving Holidays!

Congratulations to Mia Dempsey and Evan Lewis, Diving Regional Champions! And congratulations to Alex Winston who came in second and qualified for States as well! Best wishes at Swimming and Diving States to those who qualified!

Congratulations to Boys and Girls Mustang Cross Country and Girls and Boys Mustang Golf on their Regional performances this weekend! Congratulations to Mustang Volleyball who lost a tough game yesterday in the Regional Final! Congratulations on a great season!

We are now in Winter Sports and want to wish them well as we continue through the season!

We also want to congratulate the Marching Mustangs who earned Superiors at Marching Band Performance Assessment this weekend! There will be a Fall Concert this week on Wednesday at 7PM at the RRHS PAC!

And congratulations to our NJROTC Orienteering Team this week at their competition where we had many finishers who placed!

Seniors! Please make sure that you go on our website and complete the form to order your cap and gown and diploma! (https://jwmhs.pasco.k12.fl.us/mform/view.php?id=75615.)

All paperwork for Winter and Spring Sports will now be completed online at Athletic Clearance (https://athleticclearance.fhsaahome.org/). This can also be found on our website. If you played a fall sport, see Mrs. Dixon for a copy of your paperwork so that you can upload it.

As a reminder, all tickets for sporting events must be purchased via GoFan (https://gofan.co/search) and we will not accept paper tickets or screenshots. The ticket must be on your mobile device.

If you have an eSchool placeholder, on campus or off campus, please continue to work on your classes as they need to be completed by the end of the first semester.

Parking on campus is a privilege and you must have a hangtag and spot to park on campus. Applying for a spot does not guarantee parking. In fact, there is a currently a waiting list for those who want to park. If you have not applied, you will not be on the waiting list if a spot opens. Please follow our rules.

Please make sure that you can pass the Covid-19 screener (Student Covid-19 Screener) each morning that is found on our website. If you cannot, please stay home. If you are positive for Covid-19 or have been exposed to someone who is positive for Covid-19, please stay home and contact your administrator so that we can help you with your school work.

The best way to be successful at JWMHS is to listen to the things we say and read the information that we put out. We communicate in a variety of ways and ask that you make sure that you are paying attention and following us on social media.

Please read our JWMHS Electronic Newsletter, Around the RANCH. You can find it here:  https://www.smore.com/yvtj8 and we will be putting a lot of information in this newsletter that can assist you throughout the year.

We want to remind you that you need to respect each other and just be nice. Calling each other names, posting negative things online, and acting inappropriately towards each other is uncalled for and unnecessary. Again, just be nice. And if you can’t find something nice to say, then don’t say anything at all.

I am very proud of the things going on in Mustang Nation! Let’s make more excellence this week!

We hope you have a great evening! Thank you for reading!

Go Mustangs!
