Little blue stem, turkeyfoot grass, and shagbark hickory trees! Grade 2 is looking for seeds of all kinds as they make connections to pollinators and cycles in nature.

There was a great turnout of families at MCS for the book fair, family picnic and fall parent assembly on Thursday. Thank you for coming, you put the Community in MCS! #SPSD #MCS
4K students had a deliciously fantastic week learning about apples and Fall. They made applesauce and apple pie. A trip out to the school orchard and garden added to the learning fun. Students also learned how many apples tall they are and graphed their favorite type of apple.
After careful cutting of garden fresh vegetables, the fifth graders enjoyed salsa from seeds they planted last spring! Yum!

It was an egg-citing day in the school barnyard! Students welcomed back the chickens and ducks they hatched last spring. The sheep are happy to see all the kids at recess!

We have two new basketball hoops at MCS this fall. Thanks to the donations from Charlie Fuchs' Memorial we were able to pay for the concrete for these recycled hoops! Looking forward to seeing our students try them out at recess on September 5th!
