A Note From The Principal
Welcome to March. We saw some signs of spring this past weekend and are starting to see some flowers pop up around campus as well! It is hard to believe that we are entering the final days of winter, and that spring is just around the corner. There’s been a lot going on around school the past several weeks as students are engaged in continued learning. 
 
At the beginning of February, we spent some building time together looking at mid-year diagnostic data in reading and math. This time spent together as staff is a valued time where we learn from one another and share ideas of success across classrooms and grade levels. The professional development time we have together helps us grow as professionals and the staff and I are appreciative and thankful that families support us in having this time! For planning purposes, due to the snow days in February our end of year calendar has been pushed back a little bit, and our last day of school is now scheduled for Monday, June 23rd. (Of course, this could change if we have a resurgence of winter weather!)

I also wanted to share that I am amazed at the regular participation of parents/guardians as Art Docents and Nature Guides here at ME. A huge thank you to all the parents/guardians that have become involved in these programs to provide wonderful art and outdoor learning opportunities for our students! 

Thanks for all that you do to assist us in educating your children and supporting us in this very important work. Have a great March!

Jack Sackett, Principal
