A Note From Principal Solis
This week, I want to highlight some of the amazing things our Mustangs have been involved in!
 
This morning, we enjoyed a great Kindergarten ABC Boot Camp Parade celebrating some of our youngest learners! Our 6th grade students participated in the Drug Store Project, an important learning experience. And today, our Leadership students represented McSwain in the Atwater High School Homecoming Parade, complete with an amazing float they created!
 
Have a great weekend, Mustangs!
 
Mike Solis, Principal
