McKENZIE — The students at McKenzie Middle School have worked diligently this school year, and their hard work has paid off, resulting in a state title as well as being nationally ranked for their vocabulary success.
MMS was introduced to a vocabulary building program in the fall call vocabulary.com. The program is designed to help expose, bridge and build individual vocabulary knowledge.
Each student works at his or her own learning pace to master vocabulary words within an adaptive learning game. The students, along with others at thousands of schools around the United States and Canada, competed in the 2018-19 school year in the annual Vocabulary Bowl, a competition to see which schools can master the most words.
