November 24, 2020 Dear MES Families, I walked around the school today and asked students what they were thankful for. The most popular answers were my parents, food, snow, and pets.

Dear Parents and Guardians, These pictures show our scientists hard at work. 2nd graders did a liquid density experiment to see how heavy some liquids are and why some float on top of others. 4th graders are studying different kinds of rocks.

Dear Families, The most exciting change this past week was the opening up of our playground. Students have been patient and understanding, and were so happy to be able to climb and spin and swing again.
