As part of his presentation, he spoke of the duties of community helpers such as firemen and law enforcement officers. Officer Rhodes allowed one of our 5th grade students to try on his gear.

Field Day at MCS


Mobile Christian's Field Day was a wonderful day for our elementary students. The PK3 students ran the first race of the day (see photo) when they lined up for the 50-yard dash. While the 3 yr. old students ran, the other classes enjoyed sack races, a softball throw, 100-yard dash, face-painting and "jumpy things." Of course, every child enjoyed the popsicle he/she received when the races were complete. We had a fantastic day!

PK3 learns fire safety


The Mobile Fire Department visited Mobile Christian and presented a program on Fire Safety. The children watched a brief puppet show about the importance of having working Smoke Detectors in their homes. Following the puppet show, the children were taught how to escape the house if it caught on fire.
