🟨⬛ Future MMS Kernels were in the house at MMS today! 🏫🎉

We loved welcoming the current 5th graders from GBR Elementary as they got a firsthand look at what life at middle school is all about! 👏😁 Students toured the building from the inside while preparing for their next big step into 6th grade.

They explored:
🟨 Upstairs classrooms
⬛ Downstairs classrooms
🎭 Fine arts rooms
🏀 The gym
📚 The 6th grade hallway
🔒 And even got to check out a real MMS locker!

There were lots of smiles, excitement, and curiosity throughout the day as students started picturing themselves as future MMS students. We can’t wait to welcome this great group next year! 🖤💛

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week, GBR families! 🍎✨

This week, we celebrate the incredible teachers who pour their time, energy, and heart into helping our Golden Arrows learn and grow each day. We are so thankful for all they do!

If you’re looking for a simple way to show appreciation, here are a few easy ideas:
- Write a kind note or have your child draw a picture
- Send an encouraging email or message
- Share a small treat or favorite snack
- Have your child say “thank you” and share something they love about their class

The little things truly mean the most. Let’s work together to make our teachers feel extra appreciated this week!

Thank you for helping us celebrate our amazing staff! 💛
