At last night’s school board meeting, we were able to celebrate the accomplishments of our students, and we also had the opportunity to recognize the hard work of our teachers. All of the faculty and staff at MMS work very hard and do a great job, and Mrs. Koch and Mrs. Campbell, along with the board, were pleased to offer a special word of thanks and praise to Mrs. Satterwhite and Coach Teas! They are both new to our district, but have truly dove in head-first and demonstrate daily the characteristics of respect and responsibility that we are trying to instill in our students. They are excellent in the classroom, have great rapport with students and staff, and are a joy to work with. Thanks for your hard work and dedication! We are proud that you are MMS Eagles.
