Happy New Year! I hope you and yours made many happy memories during the holiday break. As we begin another year, please plan to join us for some of the fun activities that will be coming up. We need all of our parents to become engaged in our school community. Without your help these events will not be possible.Please look for the volunteer signups for these upcoming events. They are located at the Volunteer counter in the front office. Give me a call if you have any questions about how you can help!
- “Celebrate Literacy Week, Florida” – to promote the connection between reading and health we are asking volunteers to visit Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade classrooms and read Healthy Florida Farms to students during the week of Jan. 23 – 27th. If you can give us some time, please let us know.
- Recreational Reading Book Swap – Jan. 26th (Pre K, K, 1st, 2nd & ESE classes) and Jan. 27th (3rd, 4th & 5th grades) during student lunch hours. Help is needed for setup and to assist the students in selecting a book.
- Multicultural Fair – Friday evening, March 9th. Help us to celebrate the Diversity that makes MBES special. Lots of hands are needed to make this day possible. More details to follow.
- Mark your calendars! “All Hands on Deck” Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast, Friday, Feb. 17th. Please plan to join us as we celebrate each of you & all you do for our students and school.
URGENT REQUEST!! It is extremely important that all of our volunteer hours are logged into the Portal system. If you have not been logging in your hours and need help to accomplish this, please call me as soon as possible. Our school hours are extremely low at this point and are not a realistic indicator of the service you have provided. The county will be running reports of all school volunteer hours in mid January, and we need to have a true accounting of what our wonderful volunteers do. Thanks for your help.
