Thank you students and parents for a great first week! I know that the weather didn't cooperate, but everyone did their best and pitched in to get us off to a great start. We have great students here at Micanopy Academy! This is a credit to the parents and the hard work they have put into raising these upstanding young citizens.
I encourage parents to check Skyward if they have the time. This will give you an idea as to how your child is doing and what assignments (if any) they are missing.
