Parent Survey... Your feedback is IMPortant!!!
This year, we are using Panorama Education Survey Systems to get feedback from our MMS Families and Students.
We are asking parents to please complete the Family-School Relationship Survey. This survey is anonymous and is estimated to take around 24 minutes to complete. Your feedback is extremely important and helpful. The data from the survey will be utilized by the School Improvement Team and School Leadership Team for planning purposes. The results will be shared with staff and parents.
The survey is open from April 16 through May 7.
Use this link to complete the survey. If you have any trouble with the survey, there is a support email included at the link provided.
Students will participate in 3 surveys at school. Part 1 is the Student Survey Classroom Climate will be taken in classes on Friday April 30th. Part 2 is the Student Survey on Diversity, Equity & Inclusion; this survey will be taken during IMPtime on May 6. Part 3 is the Student Social Emotional Learning survey and will be taken during IMPtime on May 13.

MAWI Lesson
During one class session the week of April 19th, the MMS social studies department will facilitate MAWI Mindset Lesson 3- Grow Your Can Do.
MMS is using the MAWI program to facilitate social and emotional lessons that are designed to help students build life-long coping skills.
In Building Expectations
While in the building all students are expected to follow the following school-wide expectations:
- Students must wear a mask covering their nose and mouth while in the building. If a student is not wearing his/her mask correctly the teacher will give the student a warning. If the issue continues we will contact parents.
- Students should not use cellphones during class or while in the hallway. Students are allowed to use their cell phone during SHAC time.
- Students should not wear headphones in the hallway
- Please be sure all students are dressed appropriately for school.
A message from the Mooresville Public Library
On May 18, 2021 at 5:00, the Mooresville Public Library will be hosting a virtual presentation by Young Adult author Pam Withers. Pam is a multi-time award winning author who writes action/adventures stories. For every student who registers for the program, the library will provide a link that will allow students to download a copy of Pam’s book “The Parkour Club”. We also have ebook copies of many of Pam’s other works and I am ordering some of her titles in print. This is an opportunity to “meet” and talk with an award-winning author. Here is a link telling more about the program. To register, please visit our calendar of events at https://mooresvillenc.evanced.info/signup/calendar, select the day of the event and fill out the form, or you can email Ms. Mosher using mmosher@mooresvillenc.gov and the public library will register you.
