What an amazing first day 8th grade students had in Washington D.C.! We took in seeing 9/11 Memorial, The Archives (Constitution, Declaration, Bill of Rights), The Peoples House, White House, African American Museum, Washington Monument, World War II Memorial, Vietnam Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Korean Memorial and Einstein Memorial. And now we are off on day 2!


MGS 5th graders have had an eventful past 2 days. On Thursday, they graduated from the DARE program. Thank you to all parents and family members who were able to attend. A special THANK YOU to Ms. Trotter and Mrs. Gregait for all of the time they spent preparing our band and choir to perform. And a huge THANK YOU to Deputy Angela Holocker for taking such an interest in our students becoming the best citizens they can be.
Then today, 5th graders attended their DARE celebration at Grant Memorial Park in Washburn. A great time was had by all, and I do think several kids are going to be asking for Pickleball sets since that seemed to be the most popular activity today.


Thanks so much to our Recorders for the awesome assembly yesterday!
