A message from the Principal



Dear MES Families,

We have been working hard to complete I LEARN checkpoint 2 for grades 3-4. As soon as we are completed, we will send you the instructions to access your child's data.

We will go outside for recess as much as possible! We have limited clear space, and teachers are getting creative! If the weather is 25+ degrees with wind-chill we will venture out!

Have a great weekend!

Stephanie



News from the Library



February is Library Lover’s Month. What a great time to visit your local library and spend time together reading. The Hancock County Public Library serves residents in eight of the nine townships in Hancock County. Vernon Township is served by the Vernon Township Public Library. Cardholders from one library may apply for a card at the other. It is FREE






CogAT Testing 



Our district requires additional information on the academic needs and performance of individual children in order to ensure that the school corporation is providing instruction at the appropriate level for each child. All fourth grade students will take the screener, the week of February 9th. This screener is a short 40 minute test.

Please refer to the website below for practice and sample questions:

Reminder - Drop off and Pick up Procedures



If you are bringing your child to school in the morning, please drop off your child at the front drop off area beginning at 7:10 a.m. 


Please enter school grounds via the back entrance on 700N. Pull all the way around and there will be staff to direct you to pull forward. They will also be there to assist your child out of the car. Parents should not get out of the car.

AM Only - When exiting the school, you may only head North (turn right) on 600W. 

 

Please remember that you must come in to sign a student in and out of school if it is after 7:35 am or before 2:05 pm. They could be considered tardy if this procedure is not followed. 


The back gate opens at 1:30 for pick-up. Do not park on the grass or anywhere on 700N. We use a cone/number system to make sure students are safe. 

Please display car rider numbers during pick up.

Remain in line until you are at the end of the car rider line. Do not pull around cars.


Pull over at the end of the line if you need to buckle in your child.

Please try to let the office know of any dismissal changes no later than 1:30pm, unless there is an emergency.


 Please follow all procedures.
