Principal's Weekly Message
Good afternoon Middle Creek High School families,
I hope everyone has enjoyed their Spring Break. Quarter 3 wrapped up at the end of March, so this week we will be starting Quarter 4. Teachers will be finalizing grades throughout this week, and you can expect report cards to come home on April 16th. Just a reminder that tomorrow, April 7th is a school day- which is a change from the impact of February’s snow. Also, this week is Assistant Principal Appreciation Week. We are lucky to have an outtanding team of APs here at The Creek: Ms. Schultz, Mr. Baer, Mr. Cucurullo, Mr. Thomas, and Ms. Megronigle. Please join me sharing gratitude for their support and leadership!

We are excited to announce that this year each senior family will receive 10 tickets for the graduation ceremony. Tickets will be handed out to students at the Graduation Rehearsal, all fees and fines must be paid and students must be in good academic standing to receive their tickets.
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!
