The 2025-2026 Academic Year Calendar has been officially approved by the MCS Board!
One key change for next year involves planned two-hour delays. Instead of following previous schedules, there will now be a two-hour delay on the second Wednesday of select months:
📅 September, October, November, January, March, and April
These delays will provide valuable time for our teachers to plan, collaborate, and participate in professional development—ultimately enhancing student learning. We appreciate your support and look forward to another amazing school year!
Reminder to our Hatfield Families: Friday, February 14th will be a planned eLearning Day for all MCS students. Please see the attached flier for more information.
Today, our Kindergarten, First, and Second Graders had an exciting visit from one of our very own MCS teachers, Mrs. Maggie Hamilton—a 5th-grade teacher at Burris and this year's Iditarod Teacher on the Trail! 🏔️🐕
Mrs. Hamilton shared all about her upcoming adventure at the Iditarod, teaching us about the history of the race, the incredible sled dogs and mushers, and fun facts about Alaska! 🌨️✨ Mrs. Hamilton also informed us that she will be riding on a sled during the opening ceremony and flying in bush planes from checkpoint to checkpoint to bring us live race updates all the way back here in Mitchell!
We are so proud of Mrs. Hamilton and can’t wait to follow her journey. Safe travels and best wishes, Teacher on the Trail! 🎉👏
This week, we have been so excited to celebrate Mrs. Waldbieser, our incredible Hatfield School Counselor! 🌟 She is the heart of our school, always providing kindness, support, and encouragement to every student, staff member, and family she meets. Whether she’s helping a student work through big emotions, cheering on their successes, or making sure every child feels seen and valued, Mrs. Waldbieser makes Hatfield a better place every single day. Thank you, Mrs. Waldbieser, for all you do to help our Hatfield family learn, grow, and thrive! 💛
Attention Families: Potential for eLearning!
We are closely monitoring the forecast for next week, and with the possibility of accumulating snow, all elementary students will bring home their Chromebooks and chargers on Friday, February 7th, as a precaution. As of now, school is still scheduled to be in session on Monday, February 10th. This is simply a proactive measure to ensure we are prepared for Indiana’s unpredictable winter weather. :-)
Reminder: Chromebooks and chargers must be returned to school each day that we are in session. Thank you, and have a great weekend!
