Midland Christian Elementary School

This is one of our most favorite times of the day! What a blessing it is to come together to worship and grow together in Christ. Parents are always welcome to participate in these times of devotion. We do ask that you obtain a Visitor's badge anytime you are on campus, so please plan to stop at the Welcome Center in either the Elementary or Early Education buildings to sign-in prior to joining us.

Elementary students collected over 1,800 canned food items to donate to One Hope Church during this years food drive that was facilitated by Elementary Student Council. We look forward to many more opportunities to be able to be the hands and feet of Jesus within our community. Thank you to everyone who made this possible!

Our kindergarten classes had a special visit from a local geologist! The students were fascinated as they learned about different types of rocks and where they came from. The geologist shared examples of unique rocks and explained how they were formed in nature. It was an engaging, hands-on experience that sparked curiosity and encouraged exploration of our world God created!! Thank you to Marissa for taking the time to share with our students!!

November 5 our students got a taste of democracy by participating in a fun and educational voting activities. To learn about the voting process, they cast their ballots for their favorite type of cookie (Oreo or Chips Ahoy) and donuts/extra recess!! Students experienced every step of the procedure. It was a delicious way to understand the importance of making their voices heard.

Our school came alive with stories and excitement as we celebrated National Young Reader's Day! Special guest readers joined us to share their favorite books and a a love for reading. Students enjoyed a day full of engaging stories, fun activities, and a shared appreciation for the joy of books. Thank you to our special guests and staff for create memories that will last.

Kindergarten began the Thanksgiving season a little early with a special event---Pies with Parents!! This special event was a wonderful time for our kindergarteners and their families to come together to share in the spirit of gratitude and community with yummy pies!!
