Our annual 8th Grade Boat Race was a success today! Congratulations to our winners: Madeleine, Luz, and Aaral! 🏆🚣
We also celebrated four students who share the same birthday, enjoyed a visit from the Kona Ice truck, and wrapped up the day with a pool party for our middle and high school students. What a fun and memorable day for all of our MUS students! ☀️🎉🍧🏊♂️

🏆 Winning nostalgia.
We are indeed the champions!
Our Co-Ed Middle and High School Flag Football Team never gave up and fought for every point until the very end. Today’s game proved that heart, determination, teamwork, and resilience matter more than size.

Please join us in congratulating them below! Give them a high five, celebrate their greatness, and let them know how proud we are of their hard work, perseverance, and sportsmanship throughout the season.
A huge thank you to all of our families, staff, friends, cheerleaders, our one-man band, and every Barrie supporter who came out today. Your energy and encouragement meant so much to our students.
