Today our fifth grade students visited Greenfield Middle School in preparation for next school year. Thank you to the GMS staff and student leaders for providing tours and making the students feel welcomed. Fifth grade students were also able to enjoy a performance by the MHS marching band and a few of our Tigerettes as they prepare to explore the possibility of joining band as sixth graders. Finally, the students enjoyed a tour of McClain High School provided by Mr. Shelton, ending with a visit to the roof! 😊

We have a couple of answers to questions that have been asked. 😀
➡️ Someone asked about the pile of concrete that is at the Eighth Street end of the property. Based on where the concrete was located, it is believed that it is the foundation for the bleachers that were once located there.
➡️ Someone commented about a sewer smell. The smell that was noticed is a normal smell that can occur whenever dirt is being moved like that through excavation. It is a short-lived issue and not harmful to anyone.
What you can see in today's pictures:
1. The concrete referenced above - It's unbelievable to think that was under the grass!
2. Components of the underground water retention system
3. Marking the courts and preparing for concrete to be poured
4. A friend of our district shared this wonderful excerpt from the October 1919 Dragon. It details the original plans for the practice field, which included a pool, tennis courts, locker/shower rooms, and a grandstand that would seat 1,800 people!
We welcome questions and will continue to keep you updated. 😊
