Here are a few pictures of our MJT students enjoying this program . Crafts, puzzles, fun educational games, plenty of outdoor play, snacks and homework help led by an MJT staff and two high school students who assist.
Thank you to the huge team effort it took to pull this off! MJT's Principal Taylor, District office staff, MJT teaching staff who offered to work after school, the transportation department for finding way to provide transportation home and the driver who offered to take this late route, AND two Granville High teens from the Jr/Sr who come over everyday after school to assist. A true school wide effort.
Fun fact: nearly 50% of the families enrolled registered within hours of receiving notice of this program. We have one or two spots left (please call MJT main office if interested).
