Today, we honor and celebrate Martin Luther King Jr., a Baptist minister and leader, who used the power of his words to fight for justice and equality during the Civil Rights Movement of 1955. His infamous “I Have a Dream” was heard around the world during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on August 28, 1963. https://youtu.be/vP4iY1TtS3s

As we reflect on 2020, we realize that this year, has called for us to demonstrate the 7 virtues we teach: Hope, Faith, Charity, Justice, Fortitude, Prudence and Temperance. Although we’ve faced many challenges and disappointments, it has only made our MA family stronger! 💪🏻 We have so much to be thankful for! Just to name a few, we were able to feed our students and surrounding communities, provide our students with school supplies, keep our K-5 in person instruction uninterrupted this fall, have our students participate in volleyball, cross country, and football! Although, this year hasn’t been the norm, we would like to thank our families having faith in us and our staff for their fortitude! Thanks for being part of our family! 💙💛 Happy New Year’s Eve! 🎊 #MAexcellence #community #MAfamily
Wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2021!
It’s with a heavy heart, we’re sharing that Mrs. Simich was recently diagnosed with leukemia. The day after her diagnosis she was immediately sent to U of M to begin receiving chemo treatments. Being the dedicated and passionate teacher that she is, she has continued to teach her students virtually from her hospital bed and wants to continue to do so as long as she is able. Mrs. Simich had to spend Christmas at U of M away from her two small children, husband, and the rest of her family. She remains to stay strong and positive as she faces this battle. Mrs. Simich is thankful for all of the support she has been receiving from family, students, staff, and friends. She is a fighter and determined to get back to her family and students as soon as possible. Mrs. Simich is truly inspiring!♥️ If anyone would like to send her a card they can be sent to:
