Celebrating 15 Years of Leadership – Rodney Norris
After 15 years of dedicated service to Midwest Central, we congratulate Rodney Norris on his retirement as our High School Assistant Principal and Athletic Director.
Throughout his time at MCHS, Mr. Norris has been a steady leader, a supportive presence for students and staff, and a familiar face at countless games, events, and everyday moments that make our school special. From early mornings to late nights, he’s been there—cheering on our Raiders, solving problems, and somehow keeping it all running smoothly.
While we’re excited for him to enjoy a well-earned retirement, it won’t quite be the same without him in the halls (or on the sidelines). His impact on our students, programs, and community will be felt for years to come.
Thank you, Mr. Norris, for your years of commitment, leadership, and care for Raider Nation. We wish you all the best in this next chapter—you’ve more than earned it. 💙

Congratulations to our 5th Grade Music students on earning their Bucket Drumming Karate certificates!
Throughout the program, students learned how to read music while practicing different notes, rhythms, and musical symbols through bucket drumming activities. Their hard work, focus, and creativity were on full display as they developed new musical skills and confidence along the way.
Great job, students! #MCRaiderNationProuds.

This morning, our first-grade classes visited the library for a special presentation from Mrs. Herrin about her experience as a beekeeper.
Students learned what it takes to care for a hive and explored several tools beekeepers use in their work. They even got a sweet treat at the end—sampling some of Mrs. Herrin’s local honey!
Thank you, Mrs. Herrin, for sharing your time and helping bring learning to life for our students! 🐝

There’s some exciting science happening MCPS
Several classrooms have been busy hatching praying mantises and watching their early life stages up close. The mantis egg cases were generously donated by Sarah Parkin, who collected them while working at a tree farm this winter.
It’s been a fantastic hands-on learning experience as students discover a whole new world of insects right in their classrooms!
