Congratulations to our boys' volleyball team on their season, which ended a few weeks ago. Before their DPVC Conference Tournament, the Athletic Boosters and Blue Crew hosted a Pack the Place Night with a Red, White, and Blue theme to go along with an 8th-Grade Celebration! Thanks to all of the fans that came out and showed their Demon Pride by cheering the team on! And thank you, parents, for all of your support of the coaches and team during the season!

MJHS hosted its Fall House Olympics at the end of September, and the gym was rocking with spirit! Students signed up to compete in different events, and Houses earned more points towards the team trophy for having the most creativity, energy, and more! The competition was fierce and came down to the final event, tug-of-war! Congrats to the Rams for winning the House Trophy after coming out victorious!

A special thank you to our SEL Committee, Mrs. Klaric, Mrs. Worth, Mrs. Senka, Mrs. Flavio, and Ms. Faber, for all their time and efforts that went in to planning and running the event! Thank you to the staff and Principal's Cabinet Leaders for their role during the House Olympics!

Best of luck to our two cross country runners as they compete at the IESA State Cross Country meet today in Normal! Last Saturday, the girls qualified as individuals in one of the toughest 3A Sectionals in the State. A huge shout out to the entire team as 10/11 runners ran personal bests at the meet!

Yesterday, MJHS gave the athletes and coaches a State Sendoff through the hallways! Thank you to the amazing Demon Drumline for leading the way, along with Blue Crew's Demo! Thanks, too, to our Athletic Boosters for helping to celebrate the athletes on their tremendous accomplishment!

Go Demons! Today is a beautiful day for more PRs and the chance to be a State Medalist!
