Principal's Weekly Message

Good afternoon Middle Creek High School families, 

 

I hope all our families enjoyed time away from school over Winter Break and that 2025 is off to a great start!  After some time to rest and recharge, we are excited to get back to it and finish the First Semester strong.  Next week we will be completing our final instructional week of the semester, followed by a week of exams.   

I have continued to provide exam information below for your review. We will also be reviewing the schedule with students next week so that they know which days to report and what types of exams will be given for each class. 

I appreciate your attention to all of the details!

Information & Reminders:

Final Exam Information:

Final exams for first semester classes will be held on-campus on January 13th-17th. Students will be taking either teacher-made exams or a state exam (CTE or EOC courses).  Reminder, that final exam participation is required unless you are a 12th grader that has earned exemption status for a particular course.  Final exams will count for 20% of the final course grade. The schedule for final exams is provided below and will be reviewed with students in their classes on January 9th.  

**Most students will not report to campus on Friday, January 17th unless they have to make up for an exam missed earlier in the week.

MCHS Exam Release Form

 

Information from Student Services: 

State Employees Credit Union People Helping People Scholarship

The application for the SECU People Helping People Scholarship has now been posted on the MCHS Scholarship Listing and in all senior counselor Canvas classrooms.  Students who are members of the SECU or are eligible for membership through their parents can apply for this $10,000 scholarship.  Please read the information at this link carefully as the application process takes several days to complete.  Finalized application packets must be emailed to Mrs. Gillespie at tgillespie2@wcpss.net by February 14, 2025.



Seniors- Class of 2025:

Scholarship Reporting for the Class of 2025

We are excited to recognize Seniors who have been offered a scholarship at our Senior Awards Night this May.  Please email any scholarship offers to Mrs. Morris at jmorris@wcpss.net.  Scholarships can be academic, athletic, arts, or community-based and students do not need to attend the college in order for us to include that in our listing.  Last year’s class earned the largest total in MCHS history with over $18 million dollars and we want to see if we can repeat or even beat that total with the Class of 2025!
