Student Life
The naturally wide-open, expansive prairie of the MCDS campus is the ideal setting for a wide variety of extracurricular activities and experiences that expand students’ horizons and help them develop all the different sides of themselves. Many of our extracurricular activities are student-driven, sparked by a particular student’s passion or interest in trying something new.
Leadership opportunities, team-building skills and treasured friendships are just a few of the many benefits of our robust student life activities.
