There’s a lot happening on campus as we move into the fall season! Our Cookie Dough Fundraiser was a huge success, thank you for your incredible support. The proceeds will go right back into supporting our students and school programs.
Girls Basketball Tryouts are coming this week. Boys Basketball Tryouts will be announced as soon as we have details.
It’s also a great time to join a club and get involved! Whether it's the arts, leadership, or special interests, we encourage every student to connect beyond the classroom.
As National Arts in Education and Suicide Prevention Month wrap up, we want to thank our staff and students for participating in meaningful conversations and activities that build awareness and community.
Benchmark Testing will take place this Wednesday and Thursday. These assessments help us monitor student growth and academic readiness. It’s important that students arrive on time, well-rested, and do their best. Benchmark performance may be used to help guide future class placement and scheduling, and it serves as valuable practice for the TCAP assessments in the spring.
A few important reminders:
- Fall Break is October 6–10. Enjoy the time to recharge!
- If your student has been absent, please send attendance notes to the front office or email mshamburg@mauryk12.org. We follow school board policy, and have begun meeting with students and guardians who have more than five unexcused absences.
Thank you for staying connected and supporting our school community. We’re proud of all the hard work our students are putting in, and we look forward to a strong finish to the quarter!

Thank you to all the students, families, and staff who supported our recent Cookie Dough Fundraiser. With over 1,000 boxes sold, it was a tremendous success, and we’re excited to invest the proceeds back into our school and students.
A big congratulations goes to Ms. London's homeroom, which took first place in the homeroom competition by selling an impressive 131 boxes. They’ve earned a well-deserved pizza party for their efforts. We also want to recognize D. Davis, our overall top seller, who sold 50 boxes and will receive a $50 gift card.
Additional students who earned prizes will be notified soon with details about their rewards, including free popcorn on Fun Friday, entry to the special school dance, and a movie field trip.
We appreciate everyone's participation and support. We will notify parents of the cookie dough delivery date as soon as the vendor confirms with the transportation company.

We’re proud to celebrate National Arts in Education by shining a spotlight on the unsung heroes of our schools, our band teacher!
Through every rehearsal, performance, and early morning practice, our band director goes above and beyond to inspire creativity, discipline, teamwork, and a lifelong love of music in our students. He doesn’t just teach notes on a page — he builds confidence, connection, and community.
Thank you for your passion, patience, and helping our students find their voice — one note at a time.
