Our MMS PTSO has set up a Mooresville Middle School Night at the Cannonballers stadium in Kannapolis -- it's their Opening Night game vs. the Hickory Crawdads! At this time, people can start buying their tickets using the customized group ticket link found below. As a reminder, this will be the Opening Night of the 2025 season, and there will be fireworks following the game!

Here is the ticket link: https://fevo-enterprise.com/event/Mooresvillemiddle2 Each ticket will include $5 of loaded value for concessions.

We are also allowed the "field of dreams experience", where our school is allowed a total of 10 baseball/softball players to run out with the team where they will stand with the players for the National Anthem! Sign up today or email redimpsptsl@gmail.com if you have questions. 

The email address for parents to alert MMS about student absences is: MMSAttendance@MGSD.k12.nc.us

Parents can upload doctor's notes as well. This process helps to avoid lost excuse notes!
