A Message to Our Families:
Dear MES Families:
Remember to set your clocks forward an hour for daylight savings time which will take place on Sunday, March 10th!
It was such a pleasure to see so many of our families at parent-teacher conferences! What an opportunity to celebrate your child's growth, set new goals, and continue our partnership to meet your child's needs!
We had great success with the Kids Heart Challenge and Scholastic Book Fair! We want to thank everyone for their support, especially the Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) for their continued hard work! Thank you to the family members who volunteered to help run the book fair! The school was full of excitement!
Warm regards,
Ms. Mahedy and Mrs .Carlson
Scholastic Book Fair
What a success! The MES Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) organized The Scholastic Book Fair Monday, March 4th, until Friday, March 8th! Students and staff were able to purchase books during the time slot that classrooms signed up for during the week.
Grade 3 Biographies!
Out third grade students worked hard on their biography reports and presentations! What amazing work they did researching a historical figure and sharing what they learned with their classmates! Check out these pictures highlighting these biographies!
In the World of Physical Education
I want to thank everyone who contributed to the Kids Heart Challenge Fundraiser for the American Heart Association! As a school we raised $1,823.16! So that concludes our jump rope unit for the year and we are now starting our basketball unit. During this unit students will work on dribbling skills with each hand, the chest pass, the bounce pass, playing offense and defense, shooting the hoop and modified game play! Please be sure to send your student to school in sneakers or pack them in their backpacks! Thank you, Ms. Buron
