Cheer packets and Flu Shot Clinic packets are located on Popcorn Board. What is a Popcorn Board, you might ask? You can think of it as an Information Station. Mrs. Byrd and I made a “What’s Poppin’ at MCMS" bulletin board right across from Nurse Niki’s office. This board will hold all the important handouts and information you may need to know. When there are games or special events at the school it’s located in a place your parents can see as well. So, when we say something is on the Popcorn Board you now know where to find it. Make sure to look for it on your way to PE today!
