All-School Picnic

The MLC All-School Picnic is a long-standing tradition. At the beginning and the end of every school year, all of MLC's students and staff hike up to Washington Park's Elephant House and field to enjoy a game of soccer, face-painting, swings, other activities, and the much-anticipated popsicles.

The picnic is a wonderful opportunity to catch up with old friends, make new ones, and have a good time.

It's also a great time to get to know your teachers, who play right alongside students and have just as much fun doing it.

Buddies!

Seventh and eighth graders played cards with their kindergarten buddies in the auditorium on a Thursday afternoon. The kindergarteners are always so happy to see their buddies. We all played a great game of Bingo last week in addition to the board games. Throughout the school, there are many cross-grade activities, from sitting together in all school gatherings, to reading buddies, and art projects. This is just one example of the great community we have here.
