LA Rams Cheer on the Menifee Rams
MENIFEE – In what proved to be a prescient decision just as word of a possible pandemic was on the horizon, the Menifee Union School District initiated a virtual TK – 8 Curriculum, with the creation of the Menifee Virtual School (MVS).
Experiencing the same pause as in-person learning due to COVID-19, MVS proved a popular alternative once class resumed.
Though most learning is done – virtually – there are opportunities for students to gather.
In an event for the program to show its colors, the school hosted its “MVS Makerspace and More!” More than 100 students gathered for games, connection, and community building, “underscoring the school’s intentions and efforts in maintaining a supportive and engaging learning environment.”
A highlight for the MVS Rams was a visit from Los Angeles Rams cheerleaders.
In a statement, MUSD said, “Their presence was especially meaningful as the virtual school proudly shares its mascot with the Rams. Students had a fantastic time playing games, building relationships, and experiencing the encouragement of the cheerleaders.”
Principal Steve Melvin expressed his enthusiasm for the event, saying, “This event really shows how strong the bond is between our teachers and students. These fun, community-building moments are critical to student success, even in a virtual world.”
According to the district, a recent family survey highlighted the positive atmosphere at MVS, with an impressive 93% of parents reporting that they feel the school is welcoming, staff are available to support them and their children, and teachers respect their children. These figures are well above the national average, reflecting the unique and nurturing community at MVS.
MVS announced that enrollment for the 2024-2025 school year is now open. Families interested in joining the MVS community can find more information and register at this link: https://musd.me/MVSregister.
