Some Staff Fun Before the Break!

🧁 Cupcake Wars at MES! 🧁

Things got sweet at MES during our Cupcake Wars! This fun-filled event gave our amazing staff a chance to show off their creativity, share some laughs, and enjoy a little friendly competition. 🎉

And of course, no Cupcake Wars would be complete without a delicious reward! A huge shoutout to Joyce Caswell, who treated everyone to an absolutely scrumptious snack that made the day even sweeter. 😋

From clever designs to big smiles, Cupcake Wars was the perfect mix of teamwork, creativity, and FUN. We’re so grateful for a staff that knows how to work hard and enjoy the moment! 💙🧁

Our 4th graders at MES brought BIG creativity to our halls this morning after designing and building their very own balloons for our special version of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade! From favorite characters to imaginative creations, these student-made balloons floated proudly as the whole school cheered them on.

The 4th graders worked so hard and their effort showed in every bright, colorful detail. The rest of the students absolutely loved watching the parade go by!

And just when we thought the excitement couldn’t get any better… Santa himself made a surprise appearance! 🎅✨

We are beyond grateful for our amazing Food Service team, who once again knocked it out of the park with this year’s Thanksgiving meal for students and staff across all five of our schools! Their dedication, talent, and hard work shine through in every detail, and we couldn’t appreciate them more.

A huge thank you as well to all of our incredible volunteers who helped serve meals. This tradition is something our Food Service Department and our students look forward to every year, and today was another wonderful success! #M19Pride #19EveryStudent
