We started a new tradition at MMS this year and it was a big hit. We hosted our first ever Deck the Doorway competition, and we were blown away by the creativity. Check out these amazing doorways. Our staff and students truly outdid themselves.
It was so fun to see students getting involved and really getting into the decorating. Because it was such a success, this may just become a new MMS tradition.
Our judges have already picked their winners, but we want to hear from you. Which doorway was your favorite? #minervapride 🦁

Huge shoutout to Carroll County Dairy Princess Emma Catlett for treating our MMS students to an ice cream social. Such a fun and thoughtful surprise. The students absolutely loved it and it was a huge hit. Thank you for helping make their day a little sweeter. 🍦 #minervapride 🦁

🎉 MMS 7 Days of Giving Starts Tomorrow! 🎉
Tomorrow kicks off our annual 7 Days of Giving, and we’re excited to come together to support the Minerva Salvation Army. Our school goal is $1,000, and every dollar helps families right here in our community.
Wednesday's Challenge December 10:
Bring in $5 to earn 5 points for your grade.
We’ll also be counting Spirit Day participation, homeroom totals, and staff involvement all week. The grade with the most points wins an Ice Cream Party after winter break!
Plus… Pie Wars are back!
We’re hosting both a Sibling Showdown and a Family Showdown, where the person who raises the most money gets a pie in the face, and the one who raises the least gets to throw it. Donation containers are set up outside the office.
Let’s bring the spirit, have some fun, and make this our best 7 Days of Giving!
