Friendly reminder: Tomorrow, March 20, 2026, is a Teacher Planning Day at @MDCPS.

It’s Alumni Appreciation Day during Alumni305 Week, and today we’re highlighting the journey of our Central Region Superintendent, Brenda Swain, a proud graduate of @mssh_hawks. Celebrating the many paths our alumni take and the impact they continue to make across our community.

Great teachers have high expectations for their students, but higher expectations for themselves.

Our fifth graders were geared up and ready to compete in the Science Showdown. With teamwork, critical thinking, and lots of school spirit, they competed against other schools! Let’s go Kelsey! 🧪✨#ETOScienceShowdown #YourBestChoiceMDCPS @MsAllisonStone @mdcpsdasetoosi

Our students are empowering one another by building a peer network for Say Something Week 💬💛. By listening, supporting, and speaking up for each other, they’re creating a safe, caring community where everyone feels seen and heard.

An instructional coach isn’t just another role in the building. They are the resource rain maker and servant leader committed to helping teachers grow into experts. When teachers get better, students win.

We are incredibly proud of our talented student poets at Kelsey L. Pharr Elementary! Our students stepped up, took a creative risk, and shared their voices through poetry in this year’s fair competition—and their hard work truly paid off.

Learning never stops! 🚀 Kudos to our students for taking ownership of their learning and doing an excellent job on their online i‑Ready assignments. Keep reaching for success!
