MJ Buddy Program

Although summer is just around the corner, we’re already planning ahead to ensure our new MJ families feel welcomed and supported when the new school year begins. That’s why we’re excited to launch the MJ Buddy Program, pairing current MJ families with those who are new to our community.

Why Become a Buddy Family?

• Ease Transitions: You’ll help newcomers navigate daily routines, answer questions about school events, and share insights about life at MJ.
• Foster Connections: By building these new friendships, we create a stronger, more vibrant, and connected school community.

What’s Involved?

• Connect with new families before or at the start of the school year and offer a friendly face at key events.
• Reach out periodically (via text, email, phone, or in-person) to provide answers, guidance, or just to say hello.
• Invite new families to attend upcoming MJ events like the Family Picnic, Bingo Night, or Movie Night.

Ready to Help?
