Congrats!

The Florida Dept. of Education, along with the Southern Regional Education Board has selected 20 principals from the 517 charter school in the state to enroll into the Florida Turnaround Leadership Program that’s designed to prepare the candidates to work with educators around the state at chronically low performing schools in the effort to make them high achieving ones. Because Mr. Johnson was selected, Micanopy middle school will receive $43,000 in grant money.

GRAD ADVENTURE

This year Grad Adventure will take place on Friday May 20th. We are in need of
chaperones if we are going to participate. At this point we do not have enough volunteers
for this event and we are asking that you consider volunteering for this annual tradition..
If you are interested in chaperoning we will need to know by March 24th. The fee is also
due by this date so Disney World can book us. The cost of the trip will be $100.00 per
student if all students go. The cost could rise if any of the students choose not to go. This
will cover the cost of the charter bus and the entrance fee. This will be the last year that
Disney World will host Grad Adventure Nights.
