It’s been a fantastic first week of school! Welcome back to another year of learning and making memories at MTS! 💛

Back together and ready for another year!

Our students are bringing plenty of energy into the new school year!

This week, our kindergartners were learning, creating, and discovering how to work together

Curious minds back to work

Theater takes teamwork, especially when you’re discovering what the 4th & 5th grade play will be through a word scramble

A little friendly competition never hurts, especially when it comes to breaking in the new ping pong tables

The MTS buses are rolling in!

The first day of kindergarten full of new faces, new friends, and new adventures

The kindergartners are finding their way around the play structures

Andrew Davis, Head of School, kicked off our first Gather with a warm welcome-back-to-school presentation
