The End of March

This past week was a great week at Macomb Christian. On Thursday evening we held our parent/teacher conferences. Thank you so much to all of the parents that were able to attend. Your attendance encourages our teachers. It also reminds us that we are all working together to help the students be successful.

Saturday evening was the school talent show. The freshmen class did a great job with this event especially since this was their first year organizing it. I was so surprised to see all of the different acts. The students did a great job using the gifts and talents that God has given to them.

This coming week is sure to be another busy week at MCS. The elementary students and teachers will be busy getting ready for VIP day on Thursday. I am excited to see who the students are going to bring to school with them.

I trust that this week will also be a time of reflection for all of us as we remember the great sacrifice that Jesus made for us. I always look forward to the celebration that takes place on Easter Sunday!

Ending the Third Quarter

It is hard to believe that Friday was the last day of the third quarter. This school year has gone by quickly. I am sure that the last quarter will be busy with all of the extra "end of the year" activities.

Thank you to all of the parents that have returned their surveys. I greatly appreciate your input. If you have not had an opportunity to fill them out and return them, please do so as soon as possible.

I also wanted to remind you that parent/teacher conferences will be this Thursday from 6:00-8:00 pm. Elementary teachers will be contacting you if they would like to set up a conference. Parents may also request a conference with their child's teacher. All of the secondary teachers will be available in the gym during conference time. If you would like to speak with any or all of your child's secondary teachers, please stop by the gym on Thursday evening.

Another Busy Week at MCS

This past week we enjoyed some beautiful weather. The elementary students were so excited to go outside for recess to enjoy it, and I think the adults were excited to take them out. Some of the P.E. classes also enjoyed going outside.

Tuesday was another installment of "Tasty Tuesday." This one was hosted by the EEC at Chuck E. Cheese. Everyone had a great time. Thank you to those of you who came out to support the EEC as they raise money for a new playground.

Early Friday morning several secondary students and parents headed out for the ACSI music festival in Illinois. This provides an opportunity for our students to be apart of a band and choir with students from other Christian schools. Thank you to Miss Hafemeister for all of her hard work and to the parents that chaperoned this trip

March Is Here!

There was a lot of activity this past week at MCS with all of the preparation for the auction. There were many volunteers at school all week doing their part to help get things ready for the auction. It was exciting to see all of the details come together.

The weather was beautiful on Saturday as we had our 5th annual auction at Macomb Christian. It was great to see so many of you at school enjoying all of the festivities. I hope that you all had a great time. As I walked around the silent auction, I was amazed at some of the incredible items that had been donated. Hopefully, you were able to walk away with some good buys.

Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and donated items. The auction would not have been a success without you. Thank you to those who came out and bought items at the auction.

I hope that all of you have been enjoying the beautiful weather that we have been having. I have loved seeing the sun out so much. Don't forget about about Tasty Tuesday this week at Chuck E. Cheese.
