Hello All, it has been quite some time since we have been able to update you all on the state of athletics. Below you will find the most recent press release from the MHSAA regarding the Winter sports tournament and Spring sports. It is said with a heavy heart that the Spring sports season is officially cancelled. Before reading the statement below, we would like to present you with some good news. This past basketball season six Mesick basketball players were selected to the WMD All Conference teams. 1st Team - Lexy Abraham and Lucas Hayes. 2nd Team - Jillian Hillier and Logan Wienclaw. Honorable Mention - Elizabeth Hamilton and Robert Spoor. Congratulations to all! We will be releasing some off season sports workouts soon for the kids to complete at home. Stay well and we will be in touch!
EAST LANSING, Mich. – April 3 – The Michigan High School Athletic Association has canceled the remainder of the 2019-20 Winter and Spring sports seasons, in compliance with the Thursday (April 2) “state of disaster” directive by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer closing school buildings and moving education online for the remainder of the school year to help decrease the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus.
This will be the first school year to not see MHSAA Finals played in multiple sports since 1942-43, when World War II led to the elimination of Finals in most sports.
The MHSAA on March 12 suspended its girls and boys basketball, girls gymnastics, boys ice hockey and boys swimming & diving tournaments amid COVID-19 concerns. All activity in all sports was halted March 13. Spring sports to that point had begun practice, but not competition.
The MHSAA’s Representative Council approved during its Winter Meeting on March 27 a series of concepts for completing the Winter tournaments and an abbreviated Spring season, contingent on the lifting of a statewide quarantine. The closure of school buildings into June made those possibilities void.
The MHSAA’s Executive Committee, comprised of officers of the larger Council, affirmed the decision today (April 3) to cancel the remainder of this school year’s activities.
“We are heartbroken to not be able to provide these opportunities for Michigan’s student-athletes, and especially seniors. We continue to hear from dozens asking us to hold out hope. But safety always must come first, and Governor Whitmer is making courageous decisions to safeguard the people of our state,” MHSAA Executive Director Mark Uyl said. “We understand as much as anyone how much school sports mean to athletes and their communities. We had ideas and hopes for finishing Winter and Spring and helping bring some sort of normalcy after this long break. But this is the correct decision, and we will play our part in bringing schools and communities together again when the time is right.”
“For now, we cannot state strongly enough that all students, staffs and others follow the guidelines established to slow the spread of this virus – we all must do our part.”
Because the five Winter sports were not able to conclude with Finals, no champions will be awarded in those sports for 2019-20. However, championships won at earlier rounds of those tournaments (District or Regional) will continue to stand.
The MHSAA will in coming weeks provide guidelines and other information pertinent to this unusual offseason as attention is turned to preparing for Fall 2020.
Sadly, the Class of 1970 feels it is necessary to cancel the All-School Reunion for 2020. At this time we all need to focus on staying healthy. We will miss seeing all of you and hope to see you in 2021!
Who is ready for some Friday fun trivia? I hope to see you all at 7:00 pm, the game code will be released at 6:45 pm. Quizizzes Link https://quizizz.com/join

This is a link to a live lab especially for chemistry students but all are welcome to get the student sheet and participate. There are going to be several of these if you go to flinnsci.com under live science labs, the only drawback being they require about an hour of wifi. The website does have other activities in other science subjects than chemistry as well. Definitely something interesting to do and get extra credit too.
I sent out an email to my students and their families today. Unfortunately not everyone in our class got an email because I don’t have email addresses for everyone. If any students have new or updated emails please send me an email at fordm@mesick.org and I will get that updated. Thank you. I hope everyone is staying healthy.

I know how much our students enjoyed the recent visit we had from the John Ball Zoo and yesterday I found these really fun videos from the Cincinnati Zoo featuring a new animal every day at 3:00. Today's video is about the Lions! There are even some fun activities you can do that coordinate with the animal you see each day. Previous videos are also available and include Sloths, an Ocelot, a Porcupine and a Hippo! You can find the videos at the Cincinnati Zoo website under the Home Safari Resources page or you can also find them on YouTube. The link is below. Kind of like a field trip from the comfort of your home!

Another assignment I usually give at this time is to make a family tree, except instead of the usual the goal is to track characteristics, like eye color, hair color, baldness, earlobe attachment, cleft chin, ear point and so on so we can use it to show how genetics-inheritance works. You could even try to track medical conditions like high blood pressure, talk to your folks to make sure they are comfortable with it. The other thing that sometimes comes up is difficulty tracing family, so if you have trouble with that find a celebrity you want to be "part of your family" and that you can find a picture of so you can see the traits you are tracking. There are lots of examples on line if you look, be creative and have fun.

Hello Everyone,
I know many of you are changing spring break plans for this year. I wanted you to be aware that at the WMISD Board Meeting last night. They voted to change next year's spring break (2020-2021) to March 29-April 2.
This was in the works before this current school closure it has nothing to do with what we are currently facing.
A great way to keep your children entertained and sharp for school is to read!
Please have your children read at least 20 minutes a day.
K-5 Grades: Here is a reading strategy you can practice at home, 10 recommended books and a calendar with daily reading-related activities.
Enjoy!

Saturdays elementary boys basketball tournament for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders has been cancelled. Please see the attached press release from the MHSAA regarding current high school athletics:
MHSAA Tournaments to Continue with Attendance Restrictions, Online Streaming of Finals
EAST LANSING, Mich. – March 12 – Postseason events sponsored by the Michigan High School Athletic Association and scheduled for March 12-14 will be conducted as scheduled. However, attendance will be restricted at all events through this weekend, with updates to be announced Monday, March 16, for the remainder of the girls and boys basketball tournaments.
The MHSAA Ice Hockey Semifinals and Finals will be played March 12-14 at USA Hockey Arena, with Lower Peninsula Boys Swimming & Diving Finals beginning Friday, March 13 and concluding March 14 at Oakland University and Holland Aquatic Center. Girls Gymnastics at Rockford High School also will be competed Friday and Saturday this weekend. Girls Basketball Regionals Finals are scheduled for tonight, March 12, across the state, as are Boys District Finals on Friday, March 13.
Based on recommendations from Gov. Gretchen Whitmer suggesting attendance limitations, no spectators will be allowed for the three Swimming & Diving Finals, both days, or Saturday’s Girls Gymnastics Individual Finals. These events have the highest number of participants of this weekend’s events.
However, for Hockey Semifinals and Finals and Gymnastics Team Finals – events with far fewer participants – a limited number of spectators will be allowed, as determined by participating schools, to include only parents, legal guardians and essential administrators. Basketball games during the next two days also will allow only limited spectators, as determined by participating schools and following these same restrictions. Each competing school will provide the entry list of parents, legal guardians and essential administrators to the host site prior to each contest.
To recap, here is a breakdown of sport-by-sport attendance and broadcast stipulations.

It was a bittersweet weekend for Mesick Athletics. Our football team traveled to Kingston Friday night for the first round of the MHSAA playoffs but unfortunately were not able to bring home a win.

More 4th grade water safety practice.

Hello All,
I received the email below this past weekend. This is a testament to our students, staff and community. This was the first time Mesick has played Kingston in any event. Great job on leaving a great impression! Proud to be a Bulldog!
Good Evening Gentlemen;
As I said last night to Kyle and Coach Ream, last night was what high school sports is really all about. I witnessed 31 players, several coaches and numerous Mesick fans show the best display of sportsmanship I have seen in my over 40 years of high school athletics. Helping players off the ground, patting them on the back and helmet and even once a Mesick player pulled a Kingston players jersey back over his shoulder pad. Watching your team shake the hands of the MHSAA officials was an inspiration.
In the cafeteria after the game every player and coach that was there said "thank you" for the pizza and drinks. The parents I talked to were extremely friendly and complementary on the night as a whole.
Regardless of the score, because of what I witnessed, The Mesick Bulldogs were the true winners.
I (we) here at Kingston High School wish you great success in the future and hope to see you again down the road.

Thank You
Carl Nicol

All juniors and seniors participated in a career information workshop today to match aptitudes and interests with potential careers.

Dear Parents,
It was reported to us last evening that earlier in the week a junior/senior high student had mentioned to other students that he had a gun in his bag. Law enforcement was contacted and the statement was found to not be true. All students are safe, Please remind your children that it is very important to let adults know immediately if they hear things like this. It is also important to remind your children that is not alright to joke or play around in this manner. Again, all students are safe and law enforcement determined that this statement was not truthful. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.
Good luck to our boys and girls varsity track teams as they compete in the regional meet at East Jordan today!

Tonight's Varsity Track meet at Brethren has been cancelled. Varsity track practice is cancelled for both the boys and girls team. This meet will not be rescheduled. Tonight's Golf match has been cancelled and is rescheduled for next Wednesday at Antioch Hills. Tonight's JV Baseball/Softball game has been cancelled. This game will not be rescheduled. JH track practice will still take place tonight until 4:15 pm.
We have been receiving several questions regarding secure phase and what that means. Basically, it is a 'soft' lock down. The students start in a lock down which allows us to know where everyone is located. Then the day resumes as normal, no students/staff are outside of the building and we have tighter control of exit/entry. All of the doors are locked everyday this safety practice continues through the secure phase.
Dear Parents,
As many of you know the schools were placed into secure phase this morning. We had an unknown vehicle on school property. All of the students were safe during our secure phase. After contacting law enforcement with no threat found, secure phase was lifted. I know hearing of a secure phase can be a concern, but we will always err on the side of caution. I am very thankful for Mr. Fowler and his experience.
Todays varsity baseball/softball game has been rescheduled for this Friday in Mesick at 430 PM.
Tonights varsity baseball/softball game has been cancelled. Also, the JH track meet has been cancelled along with JH track practice.

The girls track team was also in action and turned in some very impressive performances. They finished 4th overall and had multiple girls place in the top 6 in their events! JV softball also turned in a solid performance tonight as they split a pair with Cadillac. Well done girls!
Mesick 11th graders visited Ferris State University today for a campus tour, admissions presentation, & great lunch at The Rock Cafe. Students learned about the many great programs at Ferris & how a college education can help them maximize their earning potential in the future.

A BIG thank you to Erma Hensel, Rose Clous, St. Raphael Church, Pam McPherson for your art donations! The students appreciate your support!
If you make a donation, please attach your name. We love giving shout outs!
What is the reason for an Jump-a-thon?
We understand budgets are tighter, so rather than the traditional catalog fundraiser that requires us to split the profits in the fundraiser company’s favor, Mesick Elementary has replaced their fundraising with a Jump-a-Thon. This will allow parents and business community to donate directly to Mesick Elementary, so we can provide the services and programs that enrich our elementary students’ school experience. New prize incentives will be available for your child to earn. It’s also a great opportunity to educate our Bulldogs about physical fitness, while supporting a good cause for their school community.

Elementary students participating in holiday spirit week.
The 7th/8th grade and SR High bands did a great job at their concert Monday night. Not to mention looking sharp in their new uniforms!
Thanks to a generous donation, our Elementary school was able to purchase 8 Breakout kits! These kits are very similar to the concept of an escape room. Students have to work together and problem solve to reveal clues to unlock the box. The box can contain some type of reward that the teacher chooses.
Third grade had an absolute blast working together to open the breakout box! They had to use their newly acquired knowledge about context clues to solve the problems and eventually open their breakout box! We are super excited to complete more of these challenges!
Attention Alumni: We will be hosting the 2019 Mesick High School Basketball Alumni Game on Saturday, January 19th at the High School. We will continue with the tradition of having a guys and girls game. We will have the ladies start at 5:00 pm with the guys to follow. The cost will be $20 and that will include a T Shirt with the remaining funds being put towards the boys and girls programs. Please share this with anyone who may be interested in playing! If you have any questions or woud like to sign up, please contact Coach Duby in the Athletic Department! Also, the girls basketball teams will be playing tonight at MCC at 6:00 pm and the boys will be playing tomorrow night in Walkerville at 6:00 pm. Have a great week!
We are seeking interest from all stakeholders regarding starting school before Labor Day. The ISD has again received a three-year waiver for all schools within the WMISD to begin before Labor Day. It appears that enough schools in the ISD will be starting before Labor Day which will open the CTC and WMISD before Labor Day. This is not stating that Mesick Schools will be starting before Labor Day nor does this mean that we will not. This is purely information gathering. Regardless of the start date on the next school year calendar, Mesick students will still be required to attend school for 180 days and have at least 1,098 clock hours as required by state law.
