Exciting Week Ahead at Junior Deputy Camp!
We are so excited to host Junior Deputy Camp at MCES this week! Because our local law enforcement officers are running the camp and mentoring our campers, you will notice a significant increase in police presence and law enforcement vehicles on campus all week.
Please don't be alarmed, this is simply part of the camp activities and a wonderful opportunity for our students to interact with our local heroes.
We’re looking forward to a safe, fun, and memorable week!

Don't let the last week of school pass by without a yearbook--we still have some for sale! Send in a check or come by the school to order one.

We are looking forward to a fun last week of school!

We are looking forward to celebrating all of our students' accomplishments at Honors Day next week. Each ceremony will be followed by a reception.

We've got extra field day t-shirts ($15) and sweatshirts ($20)! If you want one for yourself or your child, please send in exact cash or a check made out to MCES.
T-Shirts: Adult S, M, L, 2X, 3X and Youth S, M, L

Our very own Miranda Johnson, a 5th grade science and social studies teacher, is a member of the KSU Museum of History and Holocaust Education Teacher Ambassador Cohort for this school year! They featured her this week, and it is because of her efforts that our entire fifth grade got to view two World War II Exhibits on loan to us from this museum. Thank you, Miranda, for bringing these enriching history experiences to our students!
