KINDERGARTEN GRADUATION

Kindergarten Graduation will be on Monday, May 21st at 10:00am in the cafeteria. Kindergarten teachers will send home more info. Although this is a "graduation," students are still expected to attend school the remainder of the year.  Students should arrive to school on time in order to get ready. Please plan for your child to stay the remainder of the day on May 21st. We respectfully ask that all attendees sit in the metal folding chairs provided so that everyone can see. No standing around the perimeter of the cafeteria or coming to the front during the ceremony.  Remember, students cannot have balloons or flowers at school. Thank you!

MUFFINS WITH MOMS

PAC is excited to again be hosting Muffins with Mom. Save the date for May 10th & 11th.  Muffins with Mom will begin at 8am. Students are not to ride the bus to school as the event ends before our buses arrive. Please RSVP on the form that will be coming home with your child soon. This is a student-favorite event – we hope to see many mom's there!

GRADES K-4 ONLY

If your child will NOT be returning to MME next year please notify the office as soon as possible. We will begin making class lists and this info will be very helpful in doing so. Also, if you know where your student is transferring to please tell us so we can be prepared to send their records when needed. Thank you for your help!

A REMINDER FROM THE NURSE

  • Please do not send your child to school if they have had a temperature over 100,   vomiting, or diarrhea in the last 24 hours. If a student is sent home from school for fever, vomiting or diarrhea they will be out the following day as well.
  • Students CANNOT bring medicine to school.  All medicines & inhalers have to be brought to school BY THE PARENT. Cough drops CANNOT be sent to school either.
  • If your student has borrowed clothes from the nurse please wash & return them ASAP.   
  • Any medications that parents have brought to school for students must be picked up by the last day of school. They must be picked up by a parent or the parent must notify us in writing of what adult they give permission to pick up the meds. Any meds that are left here at the end of the last day of school will be disposed of as we do not keep medications here over the summer.

A NOTE FROM THE LIBRARY

DISMISSAL CHANGES

Changes in in your child's dismissal plans can be very confusing for the child. We will not make a change to a child's dismissal plans unless we are notified by the parent. In order to keep dismissal running smoothly, we ask that you send a note with your child in the morning. If an emergency change needs to be made it must be done by 3pm. We deliver notes to each classroom with transportation changes at 3pm each day so changes must take place prior to then. Thank you for your help!
