Each student in the School District of Newberry County will have the opportunity to use their school-issued device over the summer. All devices will be checked by staff before collection or distribution for summer take home. Parents who prefer their children to use their devices over the summer, must sign and return this form to their child’s homeroom or first period teacher by Friday, May 17, 2024. Parents who do not wish for their child to use the school issued device over the summer do not need to take any further action, as devices will be collected in May and kept at the school over the summer.

The 8th Grade Visual Art II classes designed a mural based on self-love. The students identified self-love as the most important mantra that middle schoolers need to hear. The design will include a flower that each student will create to represent themselves and a variety of other flowers to represent all of the different personalities that fill our school. The message of the mural is "Everyone is a unique flower and all together we make a beautiful garden." Students began prepping the wall this week.

MCMS would like to thank Ms. Kris Abell from DHEC for her “Action for a Cleaner Tomorrow” presentation to our 7th grade science classes. Students learned how humans affect Earth’s resources and the environment. Ms. Abell also discussed steps everyone can take to help conserve resources by reducing, reusing, and recycling.

April is Poetry Month, and Mid Carolina celebrated Poem in Your Pocket Day today. Students and staff carried poems around with them and shared these poems with others.
