A Very Busy Week

It is hard to believe that January is almost over. There have been a lot of activities going on at Macomb Christian, so I think that has made the time go by faster.

This past week was Spirit Week, and it seemed like the students really enjoyed all of the activities. Each day I was amazed at the creativity of some of the costumes of our secondary students. There was also a lot of excitement and energy at the pep rally today.

Today was the ACSI District Spelling Bee. The students that represented MCS were Isaiah Florendo, Tabby Maluzhinsky, Kendall Mustola, Josh Evans, Mikayla Mitchell, Nathan Lloyd, Nick Townsend, and Hannah Schultz. These students won their class spelling bee here at MCS to qualify for the district bee. All of our students did an excellent job at the District Bee. Hannah Schultz won 1st place for 8th grade and Nick Townsend won 2nd place for 7th grade, so they were able to move on to the Spell-off. Nick won 3rd place in the Spell-off and will move on to the ACSI Regional Bee. Congratulations to all of our students!

Current Happenings

This past Tuesday, we held our school spelling bee. The winners and runners-up from 5th - 8th grades competed against one another. The winner of the school spelling bee was Nathan Lloyd and the runner-up was Shaina Rawls. All of the students did an excellent job. I was surprised with how many rounds the spelling bee went. Nathan will represent Macomb Christian in The Macomb Daily spelling bee in February. Each class from grades 1 - 8 have a class winner that will compete in the ACSI spelling bee on January 28.

The junior class sponsored the Student/Faculty games on Friday evening. This was a fun event for everyone in attendance. The "jail" seemed to be very busy for most of the night.

This coming Thursday, January 20, will be a very busy evening at MCS. It will start at 6:15 pm with a time of prayer in the library. Please come join us as we lift up our school and the students to God. Starting at 7:00 pm in the gym will be the all parent, re-enrollment meeting. This meeting will be an opportunity for you to hear about some of the exciting things that God has been doing at MCS. At 8:00 pm Mrs. Scott will be meeting with all of the junior parents in 1A, and Mr. Myers will hold an informational meeting in the science lab for the junior high parents regarding the science fair. I hope to see all of you on Thursday!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! I pray that you all had a wonderful Christmas and were able to enjoy the break from school. There was a lot of excitement at MCS when the teachers and students came back to school on Monday to see all of the painting that was done over the break. If you haven’t seen it yet, please stop by to check it out. Thank you to all of the volunteers that worked on it!
