Welcome to March. It’s 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 happening around school over the past several weeks as students continue to engage in their learning. Today was our last day of our annual food drive. Multiple grades have reached or surpassed their goals for food donations. Thank you to all the families that donated. Today also marked the end of our Kindness Campaign, and it was fun seeing our students’ creativity shine. Lastly, kindergarten registration is now opened for the 2026/2027 year. If you have a child that will be 5 on or before August 31st, please head to the Mukilteo School District website to register.

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!

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

Every day, students have the opportunity to earn SOAR tickets, which they can trade for awesome prizes at the SOAR Store! One of the most exciting rewards is being featured in the Falcon Spirit! This month, we’re thrilled to introduce our featured student who has earned this special recognition. Congratulations to Max D. in Mrs. Olson’s class!

Keep up the great work, everyone! The more SOAR tickets you earn, the more exciting opportunities await you at the SOAR Store. Let’s continue to SOAR together! Stay tuned for more student spotlights in our upcoming newsletters!
