Good Afternoon MCMS Families!

Happy Weekend!  We hope that your family has been able to relax and unwind after a long week! It was our first full week, and everyone has settled in for a great year at MCMS.  Our students did a great job with iReady ELA testing on Friday.  It will be great to start looking at their scores and seeing how much they have grown from last year.  We also had our first Fire Drill of the year, students and staff did a great job safely evacuating the building in a timely manner.

We encourage all of our parents to stay connected with their child's academic progress by monitoring your child's grades on the Parent Portal.  Our teachers will update grades weekly to make sure you and your child are receiving valuable feedback.  Please reach out to your child's teacher if you have any questions related to grades.
