Principal's News

On Wednesday, a representative from Children’s Hospital came to speak to our students about bike safety. Some important information about how to be safe when riding a bike - and also about being safe in the car- was discussed. Some students admitted that they don’t wear a helmet when they ride their bikes, but don’t worry! All of our students received a free helmet so now everyone can be safe! Thank you Nurse Leader, Colleen Gadles, for arranging to have this great presentation come to MES.

Notes From the Nurse

Health Records: Please be sure that your child's health / immunization record is up to date- by sending in the most recent copy of your child's physical exam. All students in 4th grade are required to provide this documentation per state mandate, if you have not so already - please forward a copy to school.

Medication Returns by June 13 :

Please plan ahead---if your child has medication stored at school- it needs to be picked up at school by an adult. The last day of school is June 13 and dismissal is at 11:35.

Best Practice Protocol is to not send medication into school or return home with children. Parents/ Guardians should make arrangements with Nurse Mudge to retrieve medication in person.

Nutrition Please be sure your child eats a good healthy breakfast each day before coming to school. and brings a healthy snack for a midday break.

Hydration is very important to a successful day, please be sure your child brings a water bottle to school each day- preferably one that is easy to refill at our touchless refill station here at school.

The weather and temperatures can change quickly - so please be sure that your child is dressed accordingly, dressing in layers to accommodate cooler or warmer climates is advisable.

CHECK FOR TICKS: After children come in from playing outside it is very important to check for Ticks. In addition to inspecting ankles and head/ hair- they also tend to land and then migrate to other areas, so also check behind the ears, and creases of elbows and behind the knees.
