McKell Middle wants to thank our FRYSC and Ms. Michelle for sponsoring Micheal DeLeon and the Steered Straight company. Micheal had a message that made us laugh, cry, and consider different choices in life. Thank you for bringing such a good message to our students and providing such valuable information.
On Thursday day we welcomed our new Mckell Middle members into Beta Club. Congratulations students! We cannot wait to see the great things our Beta Club does this year.
The MMS Ag class has been baking pumpkins, they made pumpkin puree they toasted pumpkin seeds and made pumpkin rolls! They even donated some of the puree to the kitchen for our annual Thanksgiving Dinner. One student said "it was better than grannys", we won't tell who said it!!
Mrs. Fraleys science students are wrapping up a unit on human impacts of the earth. Today they simulated the effects of mining on earth habitats and organisms. They used toothpicks as their mining tool to extract their ore (chocolate chips) from their mining site (cookie). Then they had to complete an analysis form to describe exactly what habitats, water sources, and organisms were affected. Extra cookies were enjoyed after their studies.
Update!
If you purchased a flag for our Field of Flags and would like to keep your flag(s), stop by the MMS office and we will have them. Thanks for the support and to help raise funds for the Greenup War Memorial!!
