Happy Juneteenth Day from MCSD!

This morning is off to a great start! MCSD presented at SCASA i3 on our amazing journey of district transformation. Presentation title: “Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither is district transformation. Timing is everything”. The session was well-attended by school administrators and district leadership across the state. We are so proud of our district! Go Chiefs!

"The best honor you can give to anyone is to show respect for their time." We had a wonderful time celebrating our amazing team at our end-of-the-year luncheon! It was a joy to honor everyone’s years of service, and we loved taking the time to recognize our Teachers of the Year and Employees of the Year. What a great way to wrap up the year together!
JUST A REMINDER AHEAD OF TODAY'S BIG EVENT!!
Congratulations to McCormick High School's Valedictorian, Jordan DiGeronimo, and Salutatorian, Jancee Flanders. We are so proud of their work!
Good Afternoon Chiefs,
This is Dr. Hembree from McCormick County School District with an important message.
We will dismiss school at 12:30 p.m. Today. This is due to the threat of severe weather, including damaging winds, that is expected to move through our area between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. this afternoon.
We thank you in advance for your flexibility. The safety of our students and staff is of the utmost importance.
Community Fun Day!
Last night, we celebrated thirteen students at McCormick High School who completed the requirements for work-based learning (WBL) opportunities. The state mandates that students complete a minimum of 40 hours with their employers, sign a training agreement, and receive two evaluations to earn credit. Placements must align with students' goals on their Individual Graduation Plans (IGP). WBL aims to raise awareness of potential careers, facilitate exploration of career options, and prepare students for future employment. WBL involves structured interactions between students, employers, or community partners, either at school or at work sites.
Our middle school students are ready to nail that test! This morning, they rubbed the Chiefs' helmet for good luck and received a peppermint for a fresh start to the day!
MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
We really enjoyed celebrating our amazing teachers and staffs last week. We hope they had a relaxing weekend.
This week, we celebrate ALL of our World-Class staff during Teacher Appreciation Week! I am incredibly grateful for each and every one of you, and I hope you will feel celebrated and honored all throughout this week.
I hope you have a wonderful week! You deserve it! -Dr. Hembree
