Many blessings to our families and friends in 2023!
It’s a beautiful day, but we’re keeping things “ugly” at McCarroll. We’ve had a fun week, capped off with Ugly Sweater Day, classroom celebrations, and even the assembly of a hallway masterpiece. The halls have been decked, carols have been sung, gifts were received (thank you PTO!), and we’re ready to wrap up this semester. Have a safe and Merry Christmas! ❤️MMS
During the severe weather Tuesday morning one of our DISD families lost their home and possessions due to tornado damage.
Let's help this family recover!
Drop off monetary donations or gift cards to any DISD campus front office.

These treble makers were #lookingsharp tonight. Mrs. Clare Yurasek and ensemble showed that choir is the ultimate team sport! 🎼🎤#lookingsharp #treblemakers
All families and community members affected by this mornings storms are in our prayers.
All DISD students who were traveling by bus have arrived safely at campuses. Buses en route sheltered at the closest campus until the threat passed. There is no known damage to district buildings. All power has been restored to DISD campuses.
Decatur is under a tornado warning per the National Weather service. Due to the fact that buses are en route schools will be opened at normal times; however, our priority is the safety of all. Please wait until weather passes to travel and stay safe.
Last Live Thankfully update: Mrs. Womble is in the lead with Coach Schneider and Mrs. Thornton close behind. (All three classes have over 500 items!) Tomorrow is the final day that donations will be accepted.
2022: The year the cougars went EXTINCT! 🏈🦅 MMS is rooting for you, Decatur Football! #weAREdecatur
Do you have a shelter pet? Show us your furry friend in the comments below! 🐈🐈⬛🐕🦺🦮🐕🐩
Saving animals is a community effort, and AVID is asking you to help support our local Wise County Animal Shelter.
AVID is more than a class. It’s a philosophy. It’s the idea that “effort creates ability.” While the mission of AVID is to help STUDENTS develop the skills they need to be successful in the future, the program places special emphasis on teamwork and organization. Let’s work together to give these animals a new leash on life! ❤️💚❤️💚❤️
Community service is both the AVID and Decatur way, and we’d love for you to join us in showering our furry friends with love this Christmas!
MMS staff was able to “Eat Mor Chikin” today, thanks to the generosity of Grace Fellowship and our hard working PTO. Thank you for your support, and thank you for taking the guess work out of today’s lunch plan! 😋🍽️ #12DaysofChristmas

Ever feel like an “outsider”? Our seventh grade ELA department has been reading the namesake novel written by S.E. Hinton, and students have been busy reviewing the literature elements of the novel. Our ELA teachers work hard to plan fun and interactive opportunities, ensuring there are NO MMS literature outsiders! #mmsLIT 📖📚
