Dear Families,
As we move into the month of May, we can't help but be reminded that EOG season is right around the corner. Rest assured, "our kids" are well prepared! MCMS students and staff have worked hard and continue to work hard every day. Then End-of-Grade tests measure somethings, but they don't measure everything.
Just this past week, our students and staff experienced some amazing events that will undoubtedly be memorable learning experiences. Both our girl's and boy's track teams posted first place finishes at the Crystal Coast Conference tournament. This is quite an accomplishment and there is much to be celebrated in this cooperative effort!
The boy's baseball team capped off an incredible season, posting yet another victory on Thursday. This team demonstrated the real definition of sportsmanship this season, when our own MCMS team member pitched for the opposing team - now that says something about character and what truly is important.
On Thursday evening, I attended the three MCMS band concerts. These concerts were THE BEST middle school band concerts I have attended in my career...and I've been to many over the years. The concerts were bittersweet as Mr. Fye announced his resignation to the group. Additionally, the performance of all individuals was exemplary, including the percussion groups. But, the performance of one very special student stood out for me. Let's just refer to this student as "Oscar." If you missed seeing this joy-filled drummer, you missed quite an experience. Now THAT is what school's are all about - students finding joy in their learning and performance. Thanks, Oscar, Mr. David Fye, Mr. Andy Wright, and the MCMS Bands! It was a magical evening and beyond measure!
Best to you and your family as we prepare for a strong finish to the school year!
Sincerely,
Dr. Sue Kreuser
