Mrs. Buckley's second graders are spreading holiday cheer by making cards for 'Be a Santa to a Senior" at Home Instead Senior Care. They also adopted a senior to get gifts for.





On Tuesday afternoon, Cornell Cooperative Extension's Ag in the Classroom visited Homer Brink primary sequence students. The kids learned how to make gingerbread Play-Doh.





Homer Brink's 9 Days of Holiday Spirit!


Second Grade students at MM recently finished their Narrative Writing unit. What better way to celebrate than sharing their writing with 2nd grade students from other classrooms. The students crafted small moment stories that told about a meaningful moment in their life. Students had a great time publishing their books and creating a classroom book for others to read.


"Be Kind" and help support our local M-EALS program. This week only...MEMS SADD club is raising money for the M-EALS program by selling "Be Kind" apparel. ALL proceeds from this online sale (3-4 dollars per item sold) will go directly to the M-EALS program, to help purchase food for Spartan families during the holiday season.

Thanks for your support!


Students from HB, MM & the MS made cards & signs to wish the football team good luck in the state championship game tomorrow. The players received these well wishes at their pasta lunch after Saturday's practice. Good luck Spartans!! We're all cheering you on!
