We are excited to announce that our school will be celebrating Red Ribbon Week from Tuesday, October 29-Friday, November 1. This week is dedicated to promoting drug prevention and encouraging healthy lifestyles among our students.
Red Ribbon Week is a nationwide event that encourages children to make healthy choices and avoid drugs. It’s a wonderful opportunity for our school community to come together and show support for living a drug-free life. Our theme this year is, "Life is Movie, Film Drug Free!"
To make this week engaging and fun, we invite students and staff to participate in our dress-up days! Here’s the schedule:
TUESDAY: "Don't Sleep on Your Future!" Wear your favorite school-appropriate PJ's.
WEDNESDAY: "Too Smart for Drugs!" Students dress like teachers and teachers dress like students.
THURSDAY: Hats off to a Drug Free Life!" Wear your favorite hat
FRIDAY: We are RED-dy to say no to Drugs! Wear red in support of Red Ribbon Week!
Thank you for your support. Together, we can help our students understand the importance of making healthy choices.
An FCCLA Star Event project involves collecting items for pets in need. If you are willing and able to donate, we need all items turned into AcLab by this Thursday, October 24.
MCMS celebrated the end of the quarter on Friday with a pep assembly full of Minute to Win It games and a class spirit competition. Seventh grade took home the spirit bucket this round. We look forward to celebrating again soon! It's a great day to be a Wildcat!
Please do not forget we have a flu clinic next week, October 24. Deadline for registration is October 22. Please see attached letter and handout.
At MCMS, we have been enjoying great success with our students using our new program, ClassBank, to teach student’s financial literacy while simultaneously rewarding them for displaying the traits of being positive, respectful, and responsible. Students are able to spend their earnings at our school store, the Wildcat Warehouse. We are able, in part, to keep our store stocked through the generous donations of our community. If you are interested in donating via our Amazon wishlist, we have added items that will help restock our inventory. Our wishlist can be found linked here: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3S0VVB1EWWV1B...
If you are interested, you can make a charitable donation via our school's Webstore linked here: https://mc-wildcats.revtrak.net/montgome.../ms-donations/...
Thank you again to the community for the support you have shown us, we appreciate you!

This evening's MS Softball game at Van-Far has been postponed. At this time, no future date has been scheduled.
Fridays are team building days in Academic Lab, a chance for students and teachers to get to know one another and really build a sense of community.
This past week, in Mrs. Healy's AcLab, students worked in small groups to create Similarity Towers. Each group was given ten minutes to write down as many similarities amongst themselves as they could. They were then challenged to build the tallest towers they could out of those similarities.
Great teamwork, Wildcats!
