Immunization Information
6th Grade Parents,
Those students needing immunizations before the start of 7th grade brought home information in the last couple of days. The information contains your child’s shot record as well as a letter explaining what is needed. Please submit the paperwork from your doctor as soon as your student receives the proper immunizations. This will enable the school record to be updated .
Thank you.

MMS Athletics Information- Cross Country
Cross country season has started. We practice every Monday, Tuesday, and Friday morning before school starting at 7:30 during our season. Any 7th or 8th grader that shows up to run will be able to participate in the meets. There are no cuts. All athletes must have all of their paperwork in before they can start running. Our meets will be held at Plano Sr High on April 25th, May 2nd, and May 10th. If you have any questions please see Coach Ragsdale.
MMS PE News
The Dallas Roughnecks will be here on May 4th to share their passion of the Ultimate Frisbee game with our PE classes. We will have players on the professional team out here to teach the students the official rules to the game. They have also left free kids tickets for their games for the students. If anyone wants one please see Coach Ragsdale. They will stay after school to continue playing the game with the students until 4:30 on May 4th. All students are welcome to stay and play after school. If you have any questions please see Coach Ragsdale.
Plano ISD Theater Summer Camps
Enrollment for the middle and high school theatre camps are now open and have gone 100% digital this year. I enthusiastically recommend both of these camps and would be happy to answer any questions you might have about them.
If you have a current 6th or 7th grade student, they would attend StarPower, the Middle School Camp: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/plano-isd-starpower-middle-school-theatre-camp-registration-44766489776
If you have a current 8th grade student, they would attend CenterStage, the High School Camp: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/plano-isd-centerstage-high-school-theatre-camp-registration-44783629040
Both of these camps have a finite number of spaces for actors and technicians so I would encourage you to register ASAP, as the camps book quickly every year!
Lastly, if you would like to apply for a scholarship to cover part (or potential all) the cost of camp tuition, please follow these instructions:
1. Email me ASAP so that I can send you the scholarship application.
2. Do not register through the above links. There is a separate registration process for students receiving scholarship assistance.
Again, I’m happy to answer any questions. I hope your student is able to take advantage of this wonderful and unique opportunity!
Thanks,
Candace Norris
