MMS Student Spotlight Articles Set to Resume

The Mount Madonna School (MMS) Student Spotlight, a short Q & A with individual middle and high school students, will soon resume publishing. In recent years these features have proved to be a fun way to build community while getting to know our students better. 
 
This year, we hope to expand the scope and include upper elementary grade students in the mix from time to time.

We want to celebrate everyone’s hard work, collaborative spirit and success as classes. This type of community effort greatly benefits our school as a whole.

Our top ticket sellers this year were:

  • Sera, PreK
  • Sophia, PreK
  • Giavanna, Kinder
  • Harrison, 1st grade
  • Eduardo, 2nd grade
  • Shirin, 3rd grade
  • Bridget, 4th grade

  • Riley M, 7th grade
  • Phoebe, 10th grade

We want to thank everyone for helping our children to feel empowered and enthused in support of their school. All of the money earned from such events goes right back into our 2015-16 operations and program.
