MBJH WEB MBJH WEB is a junior high transition program that welcomes 7th graders and helps them build confidence throughout the first year of their junior high experience. The MBJH WEB program is built on the belief that students want to and can help other students succeed. This spring and summer, faculty will train select members of the upcoming 9th grade class to be WEB Leaders. WEB Leaders are positive role models who introduce 7th graders to the Junior High and help them be successful. MBJH WEB’s goal is to provide a structure in which students make real connections with a diverse group of peers, while recognizing that people at our school care about them and their success. We are currently taking applications from current 8th graders who want to be WEB leaders during the 2016-2017 school year. Fun, enthusiastic, responsible students who are interested in helping others will be a perfect fit in this great opportunity. From the pool of WEB Leaders, we will also be selecting WEB Ambassadors. The WEB Ambassadors will be placed in a 9th grade AO class together for use throughout the school year on WEB related activities.
