Principal's Message
Dear Families and Friends of MLD,
Happy Friday! It feels great to be back together with everyone. We have had a productive week filled with some fantastic learning experiences.
We are pleased to announce that our school store is currently open. This event is a school sponsored fundraiser with funds going directly our student activity fund. Please see the attached flyer!
On another note, we would like to recognize Deb Katon, our school lunch manager. Today is School Lunch Hero day - and it’s a great time to recognize all Deb does to keep us well fed and happy!
Principal Keith
