Congratulations to the volleyball team on an exciting season! You fought and played hard to the very last point. Last night didn’t end the way we wanted, but it’s been a joy watching you play together as a team this season. Also thank you to all the parents and fans for your support throughout the season.

The Elementary students had quite the busy day! They started by visiting the Care Center to do a little early Trick-Or-Treating, then made their way around to see the MS and HS classrooms, and finally finished the afternoon with a Glow Stick Dance Party. The kids did phenomenal, and we're thankful the amazing residents and staff at the Menno-Olivet Care Center were able to see them all!
Have a great Halloween everyone - and stay safe!
Happy Halloween from some of our Menno Elementary Students!
