January 2025 MES Newsletter

Dear Mustang Families,

Welcome to 2025 and HAPPY NEW YEAR from all of us at MES!

Our staff has worked hard the past few days to plan and prepare for our little mustangs as they arrive back on campus Wednesday. We are all excited to see them and get back to the business of learning and growing here at MES. We have a few fun events this month so stay in contact with your child's teacher for more detailed information.

1/20 Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday, no school

1/23 Main Street Theaters will be performing for our students during the school day

1/24 MES Honor Choir Performance at MWHS

1/31 100th Day of School- look for information from your teacher

We are so ready to get back to work with our students and we are looking forward to a great month full of Winter Adventures at MES!

Breakfast is served until the tardy bell rings at 8:30.

Morning announcements begin at 8:30.

Classroom instruction begins immediately after morning announcements.

When a student misses even a few hours of class, they are missing important instruction.

Background Check Needed

We absolutely love our volunteers and know our school would not function without them! If you are planning on volunteering in any capacity or chaperoning on the field trips, get a head start by getting your MISD background check completed! (It would be better to have it done and not need it, then to need it and not have it!) We are so grateful for you!
