Over the past 3 days MGS has had hundreds of special guests visit during Special Person's/Grandparents' Day for K-4! We wanted to take a moment to spotlight just some of the people involved in making this event a success. Mrs. Karcher, Mrs. Foster, Mrs. Aeschliman and Kari Dalpiaz with PTO lead the planning efforts to bring this special day to life. Mr. Uzelac, our lead custodian, also had to put in several additional hours getting the school and supplies in place. Our food service staff made nearly 1,000 cinnamon rolls!! Finally, the parent volunteers and our PTO for helping run the event-- THANK YOU ALL!!

7th Grade SS students participated in the Electoral College Voting process... the Oreo Party vs. Chocolate Chip Party. Students campaigned for votes, voted anonymously, compared popular vs. electoral votes, and debated for and against the benefits of the Electoral College.
Ms. Vogel's kindergarten class invited a local veteran in to talk about his 27 year career in the Air Force. Mr. Bob Reed brought in some gear for us to try on and see first hand. We hope to see more Veterans at our assembly this Monday. 🇺🇸
There will be NO SCHOOL on Tuesday, November 5th due to the Election.
Mrs. Brown and Miss Huntsman's 4th Grade ELA classes enjoyed reading different biographies during October. The students shared the information they learned through an oral presentation to their class. The students always love dressing up and sharing what they have learned from their books.
These future voters may not be old enough to cast their ballots yet, but today they got to take a virtual trip through a polling place. They saw electronic and manual voting methods, saw an electoral college map, and watched as people voted.
Thanks so much to the pep band for performing at the basketball game last night. You sounded great!
On Veterans Day, November 11, school will be in session so our students can learn about and show their respect for veterans and current members of the military. We will have a special assembly in appreciation of all veterans at 9:00 a.m. the morning of Monday, November 11. The assembly will include a speech by a local veteran and students’ musical performances honoring military service in the past and present. As part of the program, we will recognize the veterans of our MGS families and MGS staff. We want to invite every veteran or current military member who is a parent, sibling, or grandparent of an MGS student. We appreciate your help extending the invitation to these veterans to attend the MGS Veterans Day assembly so we may show them our gratitude for their service and sacrifice. We ask that our invited guests arrive at MGS between 8:30 and 8:45 a.m. MGS will provide assistance getting into the building and to your seats that morning. All veterans and their relatives may enjoy a reception in the foyer following the ceremony.
Please click on the link https://forms.gle/iGfvzcZwQU41edda9 and fill out the form by Friday, November 1, so we know how many veterans plan to attend the assembly.
