8th Grade Writing Success
We had several MSE students participate in The Boyertown Bulletin writing contest this year. We are pleased to announce the following students winning awards and recognition for this event, as well as the support of the judges who reviewed the entries and provided detailed feedback to each of the participants. Congratulations to Liam Pate (1st place), Myah Benner (2nd place), Akshara Karumanchi (3rd place), pictured below, as well as Carter Antosh (Honorable Mention), and Ryan Gieder (Honorable Mention).
8th Grade Field Trip
Our 8th grade students will be having a field trip to watch the Reading Fightin’ Phils take on the Hartford Yard Goats at First Energy Stadium in Reading, PA on Tuesday, May 7. ELA teachers have handed out information and required forms to students. Students will leave MSE at 9 AM and return to school by 2:15 PM. In addition to the game, students will be able to eat lunch at the All You Can Eat Buffet. Parents need to have their student turn in the permission slip and payment of $37 to their ELA teachers by Friday, March 15. Please reach out to your child’s ELA teacher with any questions about this trip. Students who are on Restricted Activity Designation, or are placed on the list after registration has closed will not be able to receive a refund and/or attend the trip.
