McKissick Academy of Science and Technology - 5.17.24

May 17, 2024

It has been a full week at MAST! Students have had wonderful field experiences, celebrated with awards days, and also had a blast with Field Day! It is an exciting time of year as we get to enjoy being a Shark Family and our community. These last few days we are embracing the moment and reflecting on the hard work this year. See below on the events that are occurring next week. Many of our 4th and 5th graders are going on their over night field experience to Virginia. However, there are other events happening for the rest of our Sharks. We have 3 full days left and 2 half days left next week. Have a great weekend!

Committed to Success,

Heather Touchberry
