MMS 8th graders visited Central High in Little Rock today, and enjoyed a picnic lunch after. They have been reading a novel in ELA classes about Civil Rights, as well as studying the topic in their History classes. Central High offers a tour highlighting the Civil Rights movement in Arkansas, and of course the Little Rock Nine. We appreciate our teachers for making the curriculum come alive for our students! Special thanks goes to Mrs. Stephanie Ivy, who organized and planned this trip. She also made special presentations to the students before the trip to maximize their learning experience.

MMS counseling classes welcomed Miss Petit Jean Valley Kristin Hardy for Mental Health Awareness Month. She promoted her social impact initiative M.I.N.D: Mental Illness Never Defines.

We appreciate Nurse Elliott and Nurse Fortner. You are always there on the duty no matter how difficult it is for you and no matter what campus. We wish you a very Happy School Nurses Day.

This message is for the parents of 5th and 6th-grade girls. Lady Eagles basketball camp money and form are due by 9:00 a.m. Wednesday, May 10.
