NJSMA Concert Band Festival hosted at MOMS
Mount Olive Middle School hosted the NJSMA Concert Band Festival on Thursday. Six high schools from Northern New Jersey and eight bands competed and were adjudicated by Dr. Shelley Axelson from Radford University, Dr. Dominic Talanca from the University of North Carolina Wilmington, Dr. Todd Nichols from Rutgers University, and Mr. Curt Ebersole - conductor of the Weschester Symphonic Winds. Mount Olive High School brought both their Symphonic Band and Wind Ensemble to the festival. Our very own MOMS Tri-M students sold snacks to all the students and raised money for the MOMS music department.
DISTRICT WIDE SPIRIT WEEK WAS AWESOME
MOMS DID A GREAT JOB "CHOOSING TO INCLUDE"
The Choose to Include campaign reminds students that when we give
others the chance to fulfill their dreams, everyone wins.
This years CHOOSE TO INCLUDE week kicked off with Jordan Toma speaking to our district about self confidence, resilience and acceptance. His energy carried with the students all week as they signed their pledges that read “Mt Olive Choose to Include”. We participated in a number of activities including spirit week, “Classroom-Connections” as staff opened up the classrooms and shared special lessons, students received TEAMWORK TESTIMONIALS (inspirational inclusion quotes on lockers), Photo ops by being the “I in Kind”, “Mix it Up” lunches and “Plant a seed, where friendships grow”. Each year our students inspire us with their strength, kindness, compassion and acceptance.
Congratulations to our MARCH Students of the Month!
MCCEA POSTER CONTEST WINNERS.
Three of our students from MOMS won $50 for the MCCEA poster contest! Their art will be displayed on the Morris County Calendar. Congratulations Shreya Mistry, Valencia Vimal and Gaanavi Pavan!!
SPRING SPORTS ARE COMING
All students who participate in the athletic program are required to obtain a physical examination as per NJ state law.
A new physical is required every 365 days, and an UPDATE form must be filled out if a physical wasn’t completed 60 days before the start of the season.
MOMS will not be hosting physicals, it is asked that all physicals be performed by the family’s physician.
*IF YOU HAVEN’T HAD ONE: THEN YOU WILL NEED A FULL Annual Sports Physical Exam
*IF YOU HAVE HAD ONE, THEN YOU WILL ONLY NEED A Sports Update Form
Forms can be picked up in the Athletic Office or printed online.
