Mylan Park Elementary Newsletter
March 2022
PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
This month we are celebrating the joy of READING! Our first week of March we are participating in Read Across America Week. We are encouraging students to read daily. Research states, that a person who reads everyday gets better at it over time. Not surprisingly, daily readers also gain more enjoyment from it than those who read less often. Reading improves memory and critical thinking skills. It also helps with focus, memory, empathy and communication skills.
📚We are looking for volunteers to read aloud to our classrooms. If you are interested in joining a classroom virtually for a read aloud, please complete the attached form.
📕Complete the Dr. Seuss Reading Challenge with your child this month! These are due back to Mrs. Osecky by March 21st.
😷Beginning Wednesday, March 2nd, Monongalia County Schools will be lifting the mask mandate. This means wearing a mask is optional for faculty and students. You can find more information about this change here. We will continue to social distance to the best of our ability as well as encourage hand washing.
🌸Spring is in the air! That means we are going outside more and enjoying the beautiful weather. Please be sure your child is dressed appropriate and jackets are labeled.
