Science in action at MMS!!!!Students in Mrs. Carson's room recently participated in a hands-on lab that helped them connect physical forces to
thermodynamics. Throughout the lesson, these young scientists successfully collected, analyzed, and
graphed their data to prove their hypotheses.
We love seeing our students dive deep into data and bring scientific concepts to life. Great job, Mrs. Carson's class!!!!!

RISE & SHINE - KEEP IT GOING! 🌅
The Rise & Shine Attendance Challenge may be over, but attendance matters all year long! 📚✨

Every school day is an opportunity to learn something new, connect with classmates, build relationships with teachers, and keep moving forward. When students are in school consistently, they are better positioned to stay on track and make the most of every opportunity.
🏫 Show up.
📚 Learn.
🤝 Connect.
🌟 Keep growing.

And remember - you don't have to be perfect to make a difference. Every day you can be here is a day worth showing up for.

Thank you, ACPS families, students, teachers and staff, for making attendance a priority! Let's keep the momentum going all year long.
Every Day Counts!💙
