Today’s Red Ribbon Week theme for MWHS was “Throwback Tuesday.” From sock-hop skirts in the 50’s, bamboo earrings, "at least two pair," from the ‘80’s and 90's, to the iconic Nelly Band-Aid of the 2000’s, Crusaders understood the assignment!

First grade students in the classes of Mrs. Adler, Ms. Heffner, and Mrs. Flood enjoyed visits from special guests during the annual Community Helpers Assembly.

During this highly anticipated event, parents and guardians shared insights about their careers and explained how their jobs make a difference in the community. Our young Crusaders learned about a variety of professions, including nursing, construction, library services and detective work.

The event was marked with smiles, laughter and curious questions as students learned more about their family members’ careers and the important role they play in the community. What a memorable day for all!

MWMS eighth grade students in Mrs. Sager's biology class experienced the chemistry of life firsthand through an engaging, step-by-step collaborative lab.

Working in small teams, students built a monosaccharide. Next, pairs of teams combined their molecules to form disaccharides. To complete the activity, the whole class came together to create a polysaccharide.

This hands-on lesson allowed students to explore dehydration synthesis in action, demonstrating how smaller molecules join together to form more complex carbohydrates.

Crusaders are learning biology one molecule at a time! 🔬🧬
