Check out the latest Holiday spirit collection by our students in our Academy of Agri-Science. Our holiday spirit looks a little extra AG-mazing this year 🎄✨
Students showcased their creativity and pride by decorating two Christmas trees for the holidays, each with its own special story:
✈️ Mobile Regional Airport Tree
Welcoming travelers with a warm touch of Americana charm, this tree is wrapped in student-made garland, vintage-inspired ornaments, and homegrown details.
Whether you’re flying home or flying out, we hope this tree reminds you of the heart and hands behind agricultural education—and the traditions we build one project at a time.
🌲 Outdoor Viking Pride Tree at Semmes Honor Park
Back home at the City of Semmes Honor Park, our outdoor tree stands tall, showing off our Viking pride while highlighting one of our favorite places on campus—the greenhouse. From handcrafted decor to colors that represent who we are, this tree is our invitation for the community to stop by, celebrate with us, and remember that growth happens here—year-round.
We’re grateful for the opportunity to share our programs, our students’ work, and a little holiday joy with our community. 💛💙
Here’s to a season full of creativity, hard work, and light.

Students in Mrs. Touchstone’s Forensic Science classes recently studied blood typing as part of their curriculum. Blood typing plays an important role in forensic investigations by helping narrow down suspects and supporting other pieces of evidence.
Our students experienced what it’s like to work in a serology lab as they tested blood types firsthand. They didn’t just learn about agglutination (clumping)—they actually got to see it happen. Watching their understanding deepen as the “how and why” clicked was the best part of the day!

Key Club hosted a lunchtime fundraiser recently, and the mission was simple, tape Coach Long to the wall.
Students bought strips of tape for $1 and while Coach Long didn’t quite stick, they did stick to the real goal, raising money for USA Children's and Women's Hospital.
Huge shoutout to Peyton Whatley, the biggest donor!

MGM PTO is raising money for one of our own. One of our teacher's tragically lost their home to a fire the Saturday before Thanksgiving. We here at MGM are a family and we support each other. Please help us to show her and her family our love and support. Students may bring in a monetary donation to their 1st period teacher this week.
On Thanksgiving day, our Azalea Trail Maids represented MGM and MCPSS by participating in the Chicago Thanksgiving Parade.
Our Pre-K students enjoyed a delicious Thanksgiving lunch before the break! 🦃🍽️
They loved getting to share this special meal with family members and celebrate together. Moments like these make our school community feel even more like family!

Our Pre-K students enjoyed a festive Snoopy Thanksgiving feast while watching A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving!

👟👞🥾👠Shoe Impressions 🥾👞👟👠
Students in Mrs. Touchstone's Forensic Science classes created their own shoe impressions and added a photo of their shoes to a class database. They put their forensic skills to the test by analyzing impressions from other classes to identify patterns and match characteristics to determine whos shoes matched! They did a wonderful job! However, they all learned that HEYDUDE are the HARDEST shoe impressions to match. 😂 #ForensicScience #VikingCSI

Thank you as well to our coaches, administration, and teachers for your dedication to our students and our program. Once a Viking, always a Viking. #Skol 💙🖤🏈
