A Word from Mrs. Small

Greetings MWES Families,

Happy New Year! I hope you all have had the opportunity to spend time with loved ones. I'm so excited to get the 3rd quarter started! We have a lot happening in the upcoming semester! As I continue to learn my role as principal, I am making an effort to improve communication with staff, families, and the community. I look forward to growing as an administrator here in Knoxville. I want to make our community proud!

Updates:

- We will continue to have a monthly calendar sent home. The January calendar will be sent out in the first week back, January 7-10. It is also added to this newsletter.

- We will be sending out information about the school music concerts very soon. 3rd grade and 4th grade concerts will be up first.
