The Mighty Mascoutah
Summer Edition
A Note From the Principal
Happy Summer from MES! ☀️📚🍉
Dear MES Families,
As we turn the final page on the 2025-26 school year, we just want to shout a big THANK YOU for being such an amazing part of our Mascoutah Elementary family! This year was filled with learning, laughter, and countless moments of growth—and it wouldn’t have been possible without your incredible support.
Mascoutah Elementary truly is a special place, and that’s thanks to our awesome students, dedicated staff, and supportive parents like you. From all of us at MES: thank you from the bottom of our hearts! 💜
To our families who are moving or heading off to Mascoutah Middle School—best wishes on your next adventure! We’ll miss you, and we’re cheering you on every step of the way. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if we can help during this transition.
This newsletter is your sneak peek into what’s ahead for the 2026–27 school year, with a few important dates and helpful info to keep in mind. Keep an eye out for one more newsletter coming later this summer to help you gear up for an awesome new year!
Until then, have a fantastic summer—whether you're splashing in the pool, reading a great book, or just enjoying some well-deserved downtime. As always, if you have any questions, feel free to contact our MES office anytime.
Wishing you sunny days and happy memories,
Dr. Michelle Cooley
Principal

Spring has Sprung! Reminder - dental exam forms for Kindergarten and 2nd grade students are due before May 15th. Please submit now or make an appointment with your dentist (if you have not done so already) to ensure meeting the deadline.
Please be sure to review the health requirement needs letter for the upcoming 25-26 school year (below). If you have a Kindergarten or 1st year Preschool student starting next August, they will need their physicals and immunization records submitted by the first day of school to prevent exclusion. 6th grade students will need new physicals and updated immunization records to include receiving the Tdap and Meningitis vaccines by the first day of school. 6th graders also need a new dental exam form before May 15th of 2026. If these are completed this school year you may submit them now and they will be transferred with their health records to the middle school. Summer will be here before you know it!
We are already preparing for the 2024-2025 School Year. Please see the below information for Registration. Online registration will be available starting July 6th. If you need help with registration, please contact the school office to schedule an appointment after July 6th.
We will be sending out information closer to these date via our summer newsletter, the Mascoutah School District Website, msd19.org, and Facebook.
