The international observance of World Kindness Day is a little over a month away on Nov. 13. There are a lot of opportunities in MCS to be kind, such as the 15th Annual Marion County Christmas Toy Shop, Community Link Teen Angel Tree, or just being kind. “The world is full of kind people. If you can’t find one, be one.” Donations will be accepted through MC BOE offices or Mr. Butch Tennant at 304-203-8385 or by contacting Connecting Link at 304-363-4882.

The MC BOE recently accepted a resolution to recognize MCS as a Purple Heart District. Many WVs are veterans of the Unites States armed forces and have families with children attending school. During times when these families relocate to meet duty requirements or experience the absence of a loved one while on deployment, MCS has an opportunity to meet the unique needs of these children. The Purple Star Award is designed to recognize schools that create a military-friendly environment and make a special commitment to supporting the resilience of military connected children. For more information, contact L.D. Skarzinski, Administrative Assistant of C&I, at lskarzin@k12.wv.us or visit https://wvde.us/commonground/.

It’s National Farm to School Month and MCS has quite the team to make things happen. One example is Cris Rowan, a cook at WFMS and our “traveling cook,” who has gone above and beyond to go help at any school that is short on cooking staff during the pandemic. #MCSgetbackinthegame
