Memorial Memo!
News & Updates for our Little Devils Families
Week Ending 12/15/23
Dear MES Families!
Thank you to EVERYONE that came out to our Winter Concerts. What a fantastic crowd we had. Thank you so much for your patience as we did our best to make it work.
The students did an amazing job and we don't want the tough logistics to over shadow how wonderful the mini maestros were. They definitely got me in the holiday spirit.
We know that we need to adjust for next year. We want to make sure that everyone that wants to come out to support our students is able to! We've already taken notes and promise to do it differently next year 🎄🕎
Thank you to the PTO for selling flowers 💐to show gratitude to our little performers.
{please note the December PTO meeting has been cancelled}
We will have a very busy week next week leading up to our vacation.
Please check the spirit week information below. Your student's classroom teacher will send out information about individual class celebrations.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Love,
Mrs. French
Memorial Core Values
We've been working with our School Council & Staff as we move toward a 'rebranding' of Memorial that includes looking at our Core Values, re-writing our Mission & Vision, as well as choosing a new mascot.
We'd love you to be part of this process. Please take a moment to share your input on our Core Values.
Use this LINK to get to the Core Values survey where you can choose the top 3 values you'd like to see your student develop before leaving Memorial 🌎
Stay tuned for the mascot survey next week!

Notes from Nurse Mona
Students sometimes get messy and wet while playing hard at school. Please be prepared by having an extra set of clothes in a bag in the bottom of your child's backpack. This is will make it easy to find them in the event we need them for your child.
