Mac El Weekly News Week of September 22, 2023

From the Principal From the Principal

Our fourth-grade students are grateful to Senator Donator for taking time out of her busy schedule to explain how a bill becomes law. During her presentation, she discussed the different branches of government, their respective roles, and how they function in the legislative process. The students participated in a "mock bill" activity to better understand the process, and the Senator kindly answered their questions. We appreciate her dedication and enthusiasm in educating the future leaders of our country.

Guidance Guidance

Small groups

Small groups have started for all grades. Small groups are focusing on social skills, self-control, respect, and friendship. Many students seem to feel the stress of school being in full swing. Students need lots of encouragement and support to be nice to others and know they can be successful even though the work is starting to get harder.
