Career Day is tomorrow, and we are so excited! 🥳 It's a great opportunity for students to learn about CTE courses in high school as well as learn from the many professionals who graciously volunteer to spend their day with teenagers. 🙏🏻 Since we won't have traditional classes tomorrow, we're asking that all students leave their backpacks at home. 🚫🎒We'll also have a concession stand, so be sure to bring cash if you'd like to purchase snacks throughout the day. 💙🦅🍿#careerday2023

This week, sixth grade scientists had the opportunity to identify prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells through the lenses of our brand new cordless, battery-charged microscopes. 🔬 We'd like to send a HUGE thank you 🙏🏻 to the Decatur Education Foundation for awarding the grant to purchase these portable, practical, and innovative tools! This microscope design makes it possible for all MMS students (and their traveling teachers!) to learn through exploration. 🧫 #CELLfietime #futureEinsteins
