Music Appreciation students were treated to a special experience this afternoon by Noli and Ana of Margaretville's own Oda restaurant. Students connected their interests in learning about Mediterranean music and culture with Balkan foods and personal experiences from owner Noli Alaj.

The food was delicious, the walking weather was perfect, and we are so grateful to have Oda as a part of our village!

Noli, thank you for donating your time, talent, food, and real-life experiences to help our students make meaningful connections and memories!

🎥✨ Our new Broadcast Class is off to an exciting start! This week, students were in Superintendent Osterhoudt’s office practicing interview set-ups—learning everything from lighting to sound to camera work. Each student takes on a role based on their personal interests, and the ultimate goal is for them to be able to run a professional interview from start to finish—completely on their own. We can’t wait to see their first interviews rolling out--stay tuned ! 👏 #MCSExcellence #StudentVoices

Due to a tornado warning this afternoon, we immediately evacuated students to lower level, interior spaces. Once the warning had expired, we resumed normal activity. Because this event was frightening for some students, counselors are on hand to assist as necessary. Additionally, some siblings were united to provide comfort. Our safety team responded swiftly to help keep our school community safe.
