Dear MES Families,
Our lost and found has a multitude of items. If your child is missing something, please have them check. You are also welcome to come in and look through our lost and found. All leftover items will be donated at spring break. We will continue to go outside as much as possible for recess and other activities. Please have your children dress accordingly.
I hope that you have a great weekend!
