From the Desk of Jay Rainey – September 27, 2024

We’ve been busy dressing out loud around campus this week at MICDS. Yesterday I asked students in all three divisions, “What are your top two favorite Spirit Week theme days?” Today’s sartorial selection—MICDS Spirit Day—was the unanimous favorite, but others received plenty of votes as well.

USA Day on Monday was the second most popular dress-up day in Beasley.

In the Middle School, PJ Day on Thursday finished a very close second to Spirit Day, and Tuesday’s Color Wash Day was also popular.

Upper School student preferences generally mirrored those of their counterparts in Beasley. Some Ram fashions, apparently, never go out of style.

We’ve had a wonderful week on campus, occasional uncooperative weather notwithstanding, and we look forward to continuing to celebrate with you as we begin our special weekend together. Always reason, always compassion, always courage. Happy Homecoming to you and your families, and go Rams!!
