The “Another Bloomin’ Run” event was established to promote awareness, acceptance and inclusion of students with disabilities in Candler County. Through proceeds earned by the race, our students in The Program for Exceptional Children have benefited in many ways. We have been able to provide enrichment opportunities for our students, purchase needed technology to help students succeed and provide educational resources for parents and much more.
Bring your children or grandchildren ages 0-5 years old for a night of fun activities at the L. C. Anderson Memorial Library - Candler County on Thursday, February 29 from 6-7 pm!
On Wednesday, February 28 from 6-8 pm, MHS/MCCA will host a Dual Enrollment Information Night to learn the ins and outs of Dual Enrollment. It is important to learn the pathway your child needs to take in order to be able to take Dual Enrollment classes. Reps from Southeastern Tech, Ogeechee Tech, East Ga State and Georgia Southern will be there to discuss options.
We are excited to announce that we will begin construction on the new Metter College & Career Academy very soon!
As with any construction project, there are challenges. For at least the remainder of this school year and more than likely, into next year, students will
continue to park in the grass area in front of the school.
However, beginning
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 19
the former student parking area will be blocked off to ALL traffic and there will be no through-traffic to the back of the High School. NO students will be able to park directly behind the High School. If faculty/staff wish to park near the tennis courts or the weight room during the school day, they will have to enter through the Oak Tree Entrance. Please note there is plenty of parking at the K8 complex. After 3:30 pm weekdays and on the weekends, traffic is permitted through the Bus Entrance to the athletic complexes.
We understand this will be an inconvenience for some, but please understand that we are growing and the final
product will be well worth it!
Don't forget to sign up for our Remind for families with babies and Tots ages 0-5 years! It's simple! On your phone, send a text to 81010 that says @4g3f2fg
and you are signed up! You will receive text occasionally telling you about our fun family events!
