We used to be the admin team of McDeeds Creek a couple of years ago. Today we were an ax throwing team at the end of the year Principal’s Meeting. Our faces say it all. So glad we are still learning and growing … and killing it with axes now!😆❤️ #thosefaces #nailedit #goteamgo

Ms. Person and Mr. Baylor got to serve as Principal for the day after winning the lucky egg....when asked what they think a principal does all day, they said, "solve problems and attend ALOT of meetings." They aren't wrong! They also said, "Principaling is tiring and hard work!"

Enjoyed meeting our upcoming 6th graders this morning; our Beta Club did such a good job touring our new students around. We even had a great turnout at our 6th Grade Parent Academy tonight #SmallMightyFiercelyUnited
