"Of course, we cannot control everything that happens in life. But we can control how we respond to what happens, and over time, and with practice, we can learn to attract a lot less negativity and trouble" - John McGrail, Ph.D.

As we navigate through these challenging times of the COVID-19 crisis, we still want to provide learning resources/opportunities for all of our students to the best of our ability. The most viable way to do this is virtually, through a host of online platforms that we are already using across the district. We will be presenting learning resources very shortly; however, we want to ensure that every household has access to at least one device and has appropriate high speed Internet access. If this is an issue in your household, and you do not have a device such as a desktop, laptop, or a tablet and/or you need high speed Internet, please fill out this form.

A member of the MURSD Technology Staff will be in touch with you shortly.

Miss Holloway is once again leading an expedition to the Andes & Amazon Rainforest for Miscoe Hill students and parents! This incredible travel opportunity SOLD OUT (at 80 people!) in less than a week two years ago, and was a phenomenal experience for all travelers!

Highlights of this trip include: standing on the equator, hiking through the Amazon Rainforest, river tubing, El Pailon Del Diablo waterfall excursion, visiting an animal rescue center, white water rafting, zip-lining through the jungle (NEW this year!), visiting with the indigenous Kichwa people, soaking in thermal hot springs, volunteering at a local school, and MORE!

Information about the trip can be viewed HERE. Students that are currently in the 6th and 7th grade are eligible to attend. We will be traveling over the April 2021 School Vacation. Please direct any questions to Miss Holloway at lholloway@mursd.org or view our website HERE.
