This week we launched our Bulldog Brew Coffee Cart, and it was a huge success! Our students did an outstanding job preparing and serving coffee to staff while building valuable communication and workplace skills.

Programs like Bulldog Brew give students real-world experiences while spreading a little extra positivity around the building.

We are proud to share that four McKell Middle School Beta Club members will be advancing to the National Beta Convention after placing at the state level competition! This is a tremendous accomplishment and a reflection of the hard work, dedication, and leadership these students demonstrate every day.

Congratulations to our students and sponsors for representing McKell and Greenup County with Bulldog Pride!

This week is Read Across the America Week! In celebration we are having a hat day Wednesday March 4!

This is McKell Middles first year competing in Mathcounts Competition! We had one team and many students compete solo. Our very own Heinrick Bentz placed 1st in the individual student competition!! Another amazing thing for McKell Middle School and the achievements of our students !!

Three of our students (Kadence Wheeler, Kaylee Yelley, and Ellie Collier), came up with the idea to create personal hygiene bags for students. They created 155 bags and donated them to both Mckell Middle School FRYSC and Greenup County High School FRYSC. What amazing community service and dedication to help out their fellow students.

Beta Club Parent Meeting!

We have had lots of questions and parents asking for a meeting before the students leave for the State Convention.

If you have a beta club student attending state please try and attend! Paper packets will be passed out with important information. If you cannot make, we will make sure a paper packet is sent home with your student.

Middle school soccer will have a meeting/conditioning practice Monday from 3:30-5:00. Bring tennis shoes and practice clothes! This will be at the soccer field

Also Midterms went home today!

Students in Mr. Pack’s theatre class were tasked with recreating famous pantings in small groups. The catch: they could use only objects they found at home or around the school.
They focused on and learned about lighting, costuming, makeup, and design

We noticed a post earlier in the week didnt get posted like it was scheduled to!

Mrs. Fraley’s science students picked up their genetic studies on their return to school. Students worked with a partner to identify five genetic traits. They identified the trait to taste bitterness using PTC papers, having freckles, earlobe attachment, tongue rolling, and hairline. They colored hung leaves on our Trait Tree corresponding to a dominant or recessive genetic result.
