A message from Dr. Ford
(proud principal of Mark Twain Middle School)

To all our incoming 6th grade families, we hope you are staying safe as you wrap up your time at elementary school. We look forward to welcoming you to Mark Twain this coming fall and cannot wait to meet you!

To prepare for your arrival, we are asking that you visit our website: www.marktwainms.net and click our ENROLLMENT button. Under the LINKS, you will find a New Student Survey along with pertinent enrollment documents.

Please complete the survey as soon as possible to indicate your intent to enroll with us in August. Once we have received your survey, we will reach out to you with further enrollment instructions in the coming weeks. Also, please know that enrollment is NOT automatic and you must complete the entire enrollment packet in order to be enrolled at Mark Twain. We are looking forward to you becoming a part of the Shark family.
