Decking Midlo’s Halls
First Annual Midlo Holiday Decorating Contest
This year, the Midlo Scoop sponsored a Holiday Decorating Contest to help Midlo staff and students get into the holiday spirit. The contest started the first day back from Thanksgiving break and ended on Friday, December 9th. Teachers and staff had the freedom to decorate their doors any way they liked based on the rubric criteria: creativity, holiday spirit, neatness, theme, and student involvement Judges included: administrators, Mrs. Tully, Scoop staff, librarians, front office staff, and custodial staff.
