    Hi Murray Families! 
     
    I am excited to announce that the Flipside registration is now open for the fall session! 
    Flipside is full of awesome after school classes and clubs that are totally free for students to join.  Flipside starts on October 10th and runs from 3 PM - 5 PM on Monday-Thursday.  Fall session ends on January 19th and there will be another round of registration for spring session begins January 30th and goes until May 11th. On non-school days and days when Murray has conferences, there is no regular program.
    Murray Middle School has school busses available to bring students home from Flipside at 5 PM on MONDAYS AND WEDNESDAYS. Students are eligible to ride these 5 PM Monday/Wednesday busses if they are eligible for a school day bus and if they participate in Flipside or athletics.
    Register online here or students can pick up paper registration forms in the main office or the lunchroom. In order for transportation to have a bus route ready for your student by the October 10th start date, registration forms need to be turned in by September 23rd. Students are able to register after September 23rd, however if they do that we cannot guarantee that their bus route will be ready in time for the start of program.
    Please feel free to email or call me with any questions! I am the Flipside Coordinator here at Murray and am excited to get to know the students and families at Murray throughout the school year!
    Thank you,
    Ms. Jenna
