In her spare time, Ms. Little enjoys reading. She has been to Israel to play basketball. Her favorite book series is Harry Potter. Her favorite sport is UGA Football.

 Attention Rising Seniors & Parents
Your son or daughter will receive important information this week about their upcoming senior year. Please be sure that you get this information so you will be prepared for this exciting year. Make sure your addresses are current as students will be mailed appointment cards with dates and times for their senior portraits this summer. The newsletter also includes details about Senior Baby Ads, yearbook sales, and senior quotations. Parents are always excited to place pictures and a congratulatory message in the yearbook for their child. Please note that the space is limited and is first come, first served. Often, the senior ad spots are sold out before the deadline. Make sure you plan ahead for this as the deadline will not be extended and students on the waiting list are not guaranteed a spot. If you have any questions, please email Mrs. May at brandi.may@mcschools.org.
