⭐ OUTSTANDING TIGERS! ⭐

We have so many students at MMS worth celebrating, and throughout the year, we’ll be shining the spotlight on a few of our Outstanding Tigers from each grade level!

🥁 First up…8th grade! 🥁 These students were selected by their classroom teachers for exemplifying our Tiger Traits and making a positive impact at MMS.

Listen to hear what their teachers had to say about what makes each of these Tigers so outstanding!

We are so proud of them! 🐯

📚🐯 NEED A LITTLE TIME TO CATCH UP, TIGERS? 🐯📚

We know that missing assignments can happen—especially after multiple absences or when students simply get a little behind. That’s why Murray Middle offers students dedicated time on Thursdays from 3:00–4:00 PM to stay after school, get some extra support, and CATCH UP!

Building good habits now matters! Learning to keep up with assignments, stay organized, ask for help, and take responsibility for schoolwork helps students become more confident and successful as they move through middle school and beyond. 💛🖤

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Students should NOT plan to stay on Thursday without prior communication. Families must communicate with the appropriate teacher and receive confirmation before allowing a student to stay.

We want our Tigers to stay on track—and we’re here to help them do it! 🐯💛 We care about our Tigers’ success!

🐯💛 IT’S WEEK 6, TIGERS! 🖤🐯

Let’s make it an incredible one at Murray Middle! There are SO many opportunities for our Tigers to plug in, get involved, and be part of our amazing community!

📸 School Pictures are this week!
✝️ Reminder: NO FCA on Friday!

Families, be sure you’re checking your child’s grades in Parent Portal. If you aren’t sure how, contact the MMS office and we’ll help you get connected!

Now is the time to keep up, stay organized, ask for help, and establish good habits that will make a difference all year long.

Let’s have a GREAT Week 6, Tigers! 🐯💛🖤

To know Mrs. Butler is to love her! We are so proud to see her hard work, dedication, and love for our students recognized. So well deserved! Congratulations, Mrs. Butler! 🐯

During the September Murray Board of Education meeting Teresa Butler, Murray Middle School Attendance Clerk, was recognized as the August 2026 CFSB Tiger Pride Staff Award Recipient.
Butler’s nominations said Butler knows students by name, takes time to talk with them, and builds the kind of relationships with students that make them enjoy coming to school. “She is always willing to help, whether that means supporting staff, working concessions for hours after school, assisting with dances and activities, jumping into a social media video, or tackling whatever needs to be done.”
“Kind, funny, sassy, generous, loving, and a ringleader who gets things done,” were affirmations by her colleagues. “She shows up, she helps, and she cares. Mrs. Butler gives her time, energy, humor and heart to Murray Middle, and our school is better because of her.”
Congratulations to Mrs. Butler on this esteemed recognition!
