📦 A Moment 50 Years in the Making! 💙💛

Today, September 25, our community came together for a truly special moment as we opened a time capsule that had been buried in 1976!

After 50 years underground, we had the opportunity to discover items and memories from a different time and reflect on the history that has shaped our community. What an incredible reminder of how much can change in 50 years—and how important it is to preserve the stories and memories of those who came before us.

But the story doesn’t end today! After opening the original capsule, we added new items representing 2026 and reburied the time capsule for future generations to discover in 2076.

We can only imagine what our community—and the world—will look like 50 years from now when the next generation opens it! What a wonderful gift we have left for those who will come after us. ❤️

A special thank-you to Mr. Thomas, our 8th grade social studies teacher, for all of his work and help in making sure our students were included in this special day. His efforts helped make this a meaningful learning experience for our students and allowed them to be a part of a piece of history they will remember for years to come!

1976 → 2026 → 2076

Here’s to preserving our past, celebrating our present, and looking forward to our future! 📦✨

MJHS students came together for See You at the Pole 2026, sharing a moment of prayer and fellowship before the school day. Thank you to everyone who participated! 💙
