Principal's Weekly Message
Good afternoon Middle Creek High School families,
Welcome to March everyone! It has been busy, busy here at The Creek and March will be no different. Below are many updates, reminders, and informational items to hopefully help keep you in the loop. Thank you for your attention to these details.
Information & Reminders:

MCHS Band Boosters is hosting a Sarris Candies fundraiser. Ordering is sweet and simple - all online!

Changes to event security- Start TODAY March 1st:
As mentioned in WCPSS communications, there will be changes to the rules guiding personal items and bags for events starting in March. Specific information linked here.
Attendance Reminders:
Good attendance continues to be something I would like to highlight as we move further into second semester. Students must be in regular attendance to do their best work in school. As a reminder, there are attendance expectations that must be met to maintain privileges (like parking and lunch passes), and earn exemption status as seniors. While our underclassmen do not have as many privileges available, I wanted to note that being provided transportation on the school bus is a privilege. When a student is taking advantage of this service, but not attending class with fidelity and is skipping, then they are putting their access to that ride home in jeopardy. I hope that none of our students reach the level of losing this privilege, but a bus suspension/removal is something that can be given as a consequence and I wanted to make sure our families were aware. Your reinforcement of good attendance is much appreciated!
Seniors- Class of 2024:
March 6 - 100 Days Until Graduation Shirt Day!
-
Seniors and staff are encouraged to make a shirt with 100 things attached to it to celebrate that there are only 100 days until graduation. There will be prizes! More information to come soon!
Cap & Gown portraits!
Seniors Cap & Gown portraits are now available to view and purchase throughCADY! Celebrate this achievement with new and exclusive products like tassel frames, yard signs, mugs, and more. Deadline to order your items to receive them by Graduation is Thursday, April 4th. Click here to order now!
Information from Student Services:
