For a group of Murray Middle School eighth graders, history leapt off the page as they explored the nation’s capital on a school trip packed with monuments, museums, and memories. More than 30 students from MMS traveled to Washington, D.C., for a four-day educational adventure that brought classroom lessons to life. Accompanied by teachers and parent chaperones, students visited iconic landmarks including the Lincoln Memorial, the U.S. Capitol, Arlington National Cemetery, and the Smithsonian museums.
Students began their journey with a guided tour of the National Mall, marveling at the towering Washington Monument and reflecting on Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. At Arlington National Cemetery, many were moved during the Changing of the Guard ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
All MISD volunteers and those new to the MISD Volunteer program, volunteer trainings are quickly approaching. Save one of these dates to your calendar. All volunteers are required to complete a yearly confidentiality training and submit a new volunteer form. Each volunteer is required to become approved. This mandates a state background check. There is a suggested $10 donation fee to perform the background check. Once the background check is received and approved the check remains on file five years until another check is required. (Remember all volunteers must be approved to attend field trips. NO REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED! #murrayschools
The Community Education Advisory Council (CEAC) has announced the MKY Cares Mistletoe Market Place will be hosted Saturday, November 22 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Sunday, November 23, 2025, from 1 to 5 p.m. at the Murray Calloway County Area Technology Center, 126 Robertson Road North, Murray.
This new holiday event is hosted by the Community Education Advisory Council and is now accepting vendor applications. Prior to COVID, the Ricky Lamkin MKY Cares Auction was slated to kick off to support non-profits in the community to honor the late Ricky Lamkin who passed in 2019. Lamkin was a passionate MKY Cares board member who believed in launching the MKY Cares Auction for the betterment of the community. However, after Lamkin’s death and a pause when the COVID pandemic forced the cancellation, the MKY Cares Mistletoe Market Place will now move forward with the same primary mission to aid non-profits and include student groups from Murray and Calloway County schools.
The mission of MKY Cares is to solicit and receive contributions and distribute these funds to charitable organizations in Murray/Calloway Community for the purpose of increasing involvement and enhancing the services provided by these agencies.

Haley Burchett, Murray High School Geometry teacher, received the Main Impact Teacher Grant, providing students in her MHS Honors Geometry classes the opportunity to build kites.
During the project, students measured the perimeter of the kite to determine the amount of string needed to secure the base of their kite, then measured the amount of table cloth needed for the surface area of the kites by dilating the frame of their kite.
After crafting their kites, students analyzed properties of quadrilaterals by measuring the side lengths and angles of their kites. #murrayschools
