Good Afternoon Spartan Volleyball family. Just a reminder with our first home Volleyball game this afternoon.
1. Please remember that masks are mandatory.
2. Between the 7th and 8th grade game we will ask the 7th grade parents to leave the gym and allow the 8th grade parents to enter the gym. This is due to the small size of Upper Elementary Gym and in accordance with the current Executive Order.
See you all tonight! Go Spartans!
Wrestling starts at 4:00 today. We are limited to 2 spectators per participant. Please wear your mask. Thank you!
Dear MCC School Family:
Snow Day # 1 of 2020-21 School Year.
Due to deteriorating road conditions and an even worse forecast for Friday morning, we have decided to cancel school for Friday, February 5th.
Stay Healthy, Warm and Safe Spartans!!
Dear Spartan Family.
With Great Regret :
The eight West Michigan Conference schools unanimously voted to conclude the early Middle School winter sports of Boy's Basketball and Competitive cheer that were originally scheduled to end in late December and early January. Despite the best efforts of coaches and administration over the last four to six weeks, the timeline (based on MDHHS orders), to effectively complete these seasons has elapsed. The early season was rescheduled four different times and the late winter sports of volleyball and wrestling were pushed back 2 weeks in an attempt to finish the early sports, but in the end it was no longer feasible to complete the seasons.
Check out the District News Feed with a letter from the Region's Superintendents in support of contact sports competitions reconvening.
We are supporting the high school in their homecoming week with a charity week for our community. In addition to a coin war supporting a local charity chosen by each grade level, we will have dress up days to add a little more fun.
Monday- Pajama Day
Tuesday- Twin Day
Wednesday- Hat Day
Thursday- Sports Day
Friday- Blue and Gold Day
We all need a little pick-me-up this time of year, and what better way to do it than dressing up and raising money for those in need! Students will bring in coins M-TH and dollars on Friday to bomb other classes.
Attention Parents: Students were given their second trimester
progress reports to take home at the end of the school day today.
Spartan Connect progress reports will be mailed.
Next week is parent teacher conference week. There will be no face to face conferences due to COVID 19. All week you can call or email teachers and they will respond by the end of the day on
Friday. Teachers will be in their classrooms to talk live on Thursday, February 4 th , from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30
p.m.
