Melican Memo | June 2, 2025
 

Seventh graders learn how to dance
Eighth graders learn how to dance
ARHS Senior Stroll

Dear Melican Families -


We hope you enjoyed the weekend. It is hard to believe that May is behind us. Last week was busy for our students.


On Tuesday and Friday, seventh and eighth graders participated in World Dancing workshops. On Wednesday, our seventh graders enjoyed their field trip to Patriot Place. 


On Friday, Melican took part in the ARHS Senior Stroll. Students and staff lined the halls as seniors toured the school. The seniors loved being back at Melican, seeing teachers and staff, and reminiscing about middle school. Faculty and staff enjoyed seeing the seniors, too. 


This week is busy for our musicians.
