1D had fun celebrating the 50th day of school! Complete with an abc order activity, writing about how to make a root beer float, and then of course getting to enjoy a root beer float...all in a half day schedule!
Reminder: There is a meeting tonight at 7pm in the front conference room at MGS to discuss Redbird Boosters. The Atheltic Director is looking to make some significant changes to the organization and she could really use some help from knowledgeable parents! This organization could be very successful and impactful to the students at MGS, especially for those in extracurricular programs. (No, just because you join does not mean you will have to run the concession stand :) Please consider attending the meeting tonight to get more information. If you have any questions please email Karrie Damerell the Athletic Director at KDamerell@mgsredbirds.org. Thank you!
Thank you to Mrs. Lelm and her 7th grade scientist for teaching first graders and some third graders about microscopes!! The kids had so much fun and learned a lot!!
