Join the MDS community to support Latisha Cook. On August 29, Latisha and her family were involved in a serious explosion at her home. We are so grateful that Latisha, her mother, and dog, Apple, are safe; however, they've lost their home and possessions. Everything - their kitchen supplies, furniture, personal keepsakes, important documents, clothing, electronics - was destroyed. Help us support Latisha with short-term housing and other needs as she gets back on her feet. We are so proud of our strong school community and MDS family.
