Hello MUES Families,
The fall weather has officially arrived and the morning temperatures can be quite different than the afternoon ones. Please make sure that your Mustang is wearing appropriate clothing to school as the temperatures begin to get cooler. This includes bringing a coat and/or thick sweatshirt to school daily. Layering clothing is encouraged.
Don't forget to check your Mustang's Thursday Folder that came home yesterday as you received their 1st quarter interim. This documents your students' progress up to this point in the quarter, content they may be working on in class, or any important classroom announcements from their homeroom teacher.
Wednesday, October 15th is our next three-hour early release day, which means that it's our next House meeting. Please remind your Mustang to wear their house t-shirt on Wednesday. If they have misplaced it or have outgrown it, they are welcome to wear a blue shirt.
Have a nice fall weekend!
Your Proud Principal,
Mrs. Goddin
