All of our students’ grade level attendance was up this week! Let’s keep this trend going! 4th grade was the only grade level who maintained responsible attendance of 95%!
Tomorrow begins a new adventure with a breakfast cart. We are adding a breakfast cart with grab and go items for students to choose from in the mornings. We are hoping this will help with serving breakfast to all our students more efficiently. The breakfast cart will be the breakfast options for students that arrive after 7:40.
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday our 3rd Graders will participate in the CogAt testing unless you have completed an opt out form.
Kindergarten and PK registration is happening now! Please spread the word!

What an awesome way to kick off Music In Our Schools Month, than to have Africa Unplugged to come to MCE and perform for us! The theme this year for MIOSM is "United Through Music". As we celebrate the month of March, all over America through music, we are reminded how important and awesome music is to everyone, no matter the age or genre. Let's remember, music can bring us together in so many ways, despite our differences.
