The Foods 2 classes participated in a Cupcake Wars competition! Students had to choose the type of cake they were making, add a flavor to it, create their theme, designs, and backdrops all on their own. Judges sampled and rated each group based on theme, design, taste, frosting, and color. They all did such a great job! #mchsproud
Congratulations to junior Kamryn Banach for receiving a positive referral! Mrs. Julie Ziel was trying to get in her classroom with lots of boxes and bags in her hands. Unprompted, Kamryn rushed over and offered to help! Without her assistance, she would have been picking up dropped items off the floor. Way to go, Kamryn! #mchsproud

On #MinookaMonday, we'd like to feature Mr. Kyle Adelmann, music teacher and band director. He earned his bachelor's degree from U of I and master's degree from NIU. He is one of the few teachers that gets to see students' growth over their four years, which he loves! He lives in Minooka with his wife Christine (who is also a band director!) and has two kids, Thomas - 9 and Louise - 5. They also have two dogs, Tina and Teddy and love the show "Bobs Burgers". Can you tell?!
