Dear MCE Parents,
At MCE, our mission remains focused on developing lifelong learners through positive collaboration. This goal is made possible by the strong partnership between our staff, families, and the broader community. Together, we are creating a learning environment where students feel supported, inspired, and motivated to grow both academically and personally.
February is historically a month where attendance tends to be lower, and we want to encourage our students to maintain consistent attendance. To help motivate everyone, Ms. Taylor and the Student Council will be awarding classes that have all students present with a HOT (Here On Time) award. At the end of February, the K-2 classroom and the 3-5 classroom with the most HOT awards will each receive a fun popcorn party!
In this update, you'll find highlights from the past month, as well as a preview of upcoming events for February. We are excited about the opportunities ahead and look forward to another productive and successful month.
If you have any questions about these events or other school-related matters, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your child’s teacher.
Thank you once again for your continued support. I look forward to another month of collaboration and growth.
Wishing you all a wonderful February!
Dr. Jacob
Principal, Montgomery City Elementary
