By Joe Meyer - MCC High School Principal
lIn every school throughout the nation there are many people involved behind the scenes to make the educational experience a successful one for each student. Everyday children attend school in pursuit of an education that will help them be successful throughout their lives. Who provides this extra support for reading teachers? Who attends to the special needs of our students? Who provides playground and/or lunchroom supervision and all the critical operational duties in the school district?
