Congrats to Morgan Cole who placed 9th out of 55 at the South Central Middle School Cross Country Conference at EIU on Sept 21, 2023.
6th grade students at MMS recently participated in a gummy bear lab. They created a hypothesis stating which solution they thought would help the gummy bear grow the most (Sprite, salt water, sugar water, vinegar water, or plain water). They ran an experiment, analyzed their data, came to a conclusion, and had a lot of fun doing so!
MMS students are invited to take on New York City and Washington, D.C. next summer! Get more details tomorrow at 6 p.m. in the MMS Cafeteria and with the link below.👇 mcusd2.org/MMSWorldStrides2024Trip
