🎒✨ Kindergarten School Tour! ✨🎒

Today, our Kindergarteners took a little adventure around MDA! 🐯 They toured the school and stopped by the Business Office to meet some of the staff members who help keep our school running every day.

It was a fun opportunity for our youngest students to become familiar with the campus beyond their classroom and discover new spaces.

Faith Families 🤝❤️

This Wednesday, our students gathered in their Faith Families for the first time! Faith Families are intended to provide a welcoming, faith-filled environment where students across grade levels build relationships, strengthen our school community, and grow together in faith.

One beautiful moment captured the spirit of the day: a younger student who was nervous about being with the “big kids” found comfort and confidence when an older student took her hand and walked with her to Faith Families. ❤️

This is what community looks like at MDA—leading with kindness, connection, and faith.

🍦🎉 Our 4th graders celebrated a sweet achievement today!

Students earned Mitchell’s ice cream sundaes for mastering their multiplication tables — a well-deserved treat after all their hard work and dedication in math! 📚✨

We are so proud of their perseverance and growth in building strong foundational skills. Way to go, 4th grade! 💙

Yesterday, we proudly celebrated our T3 Academic Awards along with our Spirit of MDA Awards! 🎉📚✨

The Spirit of MDA Awards honor students who truly live out the values and characteristics of our MDA Creed each day — through kindness, leadership, respect, compassion, faith, and service to others.

We are so proud of all of our students for their hard work, growth, and commitment throughout the trimester. Congratulations to all of our award recipients for being shining examples of the Mission Dolores Academy community! 💙🐯

On May 15, as part of our “Principal for a Day” experience, Mr. Contreras stepped into the role of Principal at Mission Dolores Academy! 🎉

He spent the day fully immersed in school life—supervising K–2 lunch and recess, reading a story to Kindergarten students, meeting with members of the Leadership Team, and visiting classrooms to observe learning in action. He also took time to leave notes of encouragement and affirmation for teachers, and enjoyed a special lunch with a few student friends.

Our 6th graders had a blast bringing science to life during their end-of-year project on polymers by making slime! 🧪✨

Through this hands-on activity, students explored chemical reactions, experimented with ingredients, and created their own unique slime mixtures while learning about the science behind polymers. It was a fun, engaging, and memorable way to end the school year in science class!

A big congratulations to our new MDA Cub Scouts Pack 11, who proudly made their first presentation in front of the entire school community wearing their brand-new uniforms! 🐯⚜️

Students shared the exciting news that Cub Scout Pack 11 has officially launched at Mission Dolores Academy. Open to students from Kindergarten through 5th grade, the pack will offer fun activities such as hiking, camping, crafts, sports, games, and family events — all while helping students learn kindness, leadership, teamwork, and confidence.

We are so excited to see this new program growing at MDA!
