Mill Creek Middle School (Kansas)

Mill creek MS, located in Lenexa, KS. We are in our third year of Science Olympiad. We are Strong in Battery Buggy and Storm the Castle.

Overview
Mill Creek is located in Lenexa, KS. Our school colors are black and gold. we are the Mustangs. We are still a relatively small school with a small team. This year we attended the Southland,Pembroke Hill, and Platte City invitationals. We went to State in 2010 and placed 3rd in Disease Detectives and The Wright Stuff. We are hoping for a repeat success. Sadly, this will be the last year for the veterans who started MCMS Scioly. The new generation has been proving themselves worthy though, and the 8th graders will hopefully be able to pass the power down to the new generation. We are trying also to start up a Mill Valley and Desoto High School Science Olympiad team. The team is attending state in 2011 at WSU andf is looking forwart do it.

Mill Creek attends the Southland, Pembroke Hill, and Platte City invitationals. We attend Regionals at JCCC and state at WSU.
