Good News:
Today, we celebrated positive behaviors in the month of March with our monthly CREW assembly. Students were recognized for their efforts in being respectful, responsible, ready to learn, and safe.
We had several Mona Shores Middle School Students visit our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders today spreading the Red Glasses Movement.
The message presented is to “Live boldly. Love big, Pass it along!”
More information can be learned from your student in participating grades, or by clicking here.

Our growth mindset for the month of April is “I don’t stop until I’m proud of MYSELF!
March is Reading Month:
We have had a fabulous month celebrating reading and partnering with all of you to promote family engagement throughout the month.
Thank you for your efforts in completing Bingo Cards each week. Students have earned fun reading related prizes throughout the month for their involvement.
Literacy Night is tonight, Friday, March 28 from 6 - 8. Bring your child’s completed book report and see what the other students completed this month. In addition, you can make purchases at a Scholastic Book Fair, have free snacks, listen to staff readers, and experience some hands-on fun!
Vote on May 6, 2025! Keep it going for our kids and community:
With a 0 mil increase we can maintain the current debt levy of 6.55 mills while generating approximately $80 million for our schools.
We can maintain our buildings for the foreseeable future without asking the community to increase the millage rate.
