November Tiki Teacher
Mrs. Ferrell is committed to ensuring the success of each student she comes in contact with. She devotes time and effort to helping her students develop a strong work ethic and responsibility for their own words and actions. Mrs. Ferrell has high expectations for her students. She communicates with them how capable they are and how much confidence she has in their ability to succeed. Her classes are challenging and enable students to think critically and deeply.
Mrs. Ferrell firmly believes in communication with parents/guardians and will immediately contact home when there is a concern in order to catch it early. She lets parents know that she is in a partnership with them and the goal is to together facilitate and encourage the child to be their best!
Mrs. Ferrell is a huge asset to Team 7A/Tribe Exile! Her teammates are thankful to be able to work with her everyday! A special thank you to Mrs. Ferrell and her contributions to the students and staff @ MJHS!

October Tiki Teacher
Ms. Della Morris
M. J. H. S.
TIKI TEACHER
During the dog days of summer, Ms. Morris would come into school with one and two gallon plants, planting soil, shovels and huge trimmers. What was she doing you ask? Creating a beautiful butterfly garden out of an overgrown courtyard. Ms. Morris made flower beds and planted beautiful plants and bushes to attract butterflies. This garden has turned into a lab for our seventh grade teachers and students …students are able to witness the magic of nature first hand. Her students have been exposed to the transformation from the egg to the caterpillar to the chrysalis to the butterfly. The butterflies are then tagged and “set free”. A colleague of Ms. Morris’s stated “It is great to watch the kids as they enter her room and witness the excitement they have for learning”.
Ms. Morris’s students appreciate her creativity. She sometimes creates songs and dances that pertain to the topics that are being covered. This in turn helps her students remember material. She is always bringing in animals and things to share with her students bringing Science to life! Ms. Morris’s students describe her as lively! Even though it is lively and fun, students are learning. If a student does not understand the material, she takes the time to explain to them individually. Ms. Morris truly cares if her students are mastering the material.
Team 7C/Tribe Eaglicious and the staff and students of MJHS thank you for everything you do daily to make MJHS a better place to be! Congratulations!
