Be Kind

2022-01-25 02:20:57 UTC

We embarked on a journey over 2 1/2 years ago to start a local business for our two young kids. The journey has taught many lessons about working hard work, about dedication, about putting more into something than what you expect to get out of it, perseverance, working with your hands, life skills, tools and equipment. But above all...it has taught all of us about Being Kind. About treating others the way you want to be treated. The Golden Rule. It has been a hallmark for how we raise our children and it carries over everyday in how we are teaching our children the importance of Being Kind in the real world. But we can't do it alone. It takes all of us. It takes a village to raise a child they say. Thank you to all of the MJS staff that embody and embrace this very thought and thank you for helping us to teach our children to Be Kind. - Conor

As a teacher at Baldwin Middle School, I just want to express how grateful I am to work in such a caring, student focused environment. We all have put the kids first, and that, with a supportive administration and AMAZING co-workers, I know we will overcome the challenges we currently face!

Penguins on the Green!

Thank you so so much for all the healthcare providers. These past couple months were so busy for the entire healthcare system, and everyone worked as a team many extra hours to care for many family love ones.
Thank you for all the educators, that have dedicated their time to make sure our children are kept safe in this time of distress for many. Thank for all the off hours you also work, to prepare for the next school day to give our children a great education.
Thank you for all the ones that kept our schools, hospitals, and other facilities clean. Working hard when no one sees.
Thank you to all the ones have been making sure our streets are safe to drive so we can all get to our destinations.
This list can go on, and on but we all know that we should be grateful for all the services we received from many people in other institutions. Because one will not perform great with out the other, we have all worked as a team. I am grateful to have you all!!!

Dr. Freeman, our board of Ed members, our principals, amazing teachers, bus drivers, custodians and building maintenance, dining services… we see you all as our heroes! Thank you for everything you do for our kids and families!
