Thank you to everyone in our school system who helped support our recent Jay's Hope Hats4Hope day. Together we raised funds to assist local families battling childhood cancer while also raising awareness about the fight. The mission of Jay’s Hope is “to improve the quality-of-life of children with cancer and their families in Georgia by extending HOPE through social, emotional, spiritual, educational and financial support.” HES, KBS, TGS, and MCMS are honored to have participated in this campaign and today presented a check to Jay’s Hope for nearly $1200. Thanks for giving HOPE!
Don't forget that Monday, 10.21, is Don’t Get Mixed Up with Drugs for Red Ribbon Week! Please have fun with it, and wear mismatched clothes. But remember, you must still adhere to MCMS school dress code so plan accordingly.
Congratulations to our September Teacher of the Month, Julia Pritchett, who, her colleagues say, “is deserving of this award for SO MANY reasons.” Those reasons include free tutoring, wanting the best for ALL CHILDREN, hilarious personality, and more. Some even say that she ”deserves to be teacher of the month every month!”
