Mark your calendars for May 8th at 6 pm. This is a great opportunity for families transitioning to MGMS next year! There will be a presentation about the middle school procedures, daily school schedules, lockers, and staff. You won't want to miss it. We will have a visit during the day on another day, but this is a great opportunity to help ease everyone's nerves about the transition. MGMS is a great school and this is a fun night!

Love Makes the World Go Round
Mrs. Millerd's class sent a simple message on their class Seesaw app and Facebook app to see if love really makes the world go round. Mrs. Millerd and her class were overjoyed with all the LOVE that they were given. They were flooded with Valentine's Day cards, emails and messages from all around the world! It was quite AMAZING! They received close to 100 pieces of mail during the month of February and into March. They received mail from 9 different countries and 25 states. The first graders received mail from such states as Alaska, Washington, Louisiana, Mississippi, Wyoming, Arkansas, Oregon and New York just to name a few. Some of the countries included Brazil, Japan, Germany, India, France and Ukraine. Not only did the class receive some really nice cards, they were sent three books. One book was all about Manatees, another book was about a football player and the third book was sent from a class in New York City called Love is all around New York City. The class received a Tennessee state magnet, gift baggies, stickers, pencils and candy from some very kind people. The first graders learned so much through this project. They learned about where states and countries are located in the world, they learned about bodies of water and land features of the states and countries that mail was received from. They also were interested in many important landmarks that they got mail from. Most importantly, Mrs. Millerd's class realized that LOVE does exist everywhere and love does make the world go round.!
Thank you Frankenmuth Credit Union for proving Mrs. Millerd and Mrs. White grants for their classrooms. 🍎
