November 2 - MTV Weekly Update
Week of November 2 - 6
Photo Retakes are Wednesday!
School Photo Retakes are Wednesday. If your student missed their photo opportunity earlier this year, let's make certain their photo is taken WEDNESDAY. This helps ensure we have their picture for the yearbook. AND if you didn't like the way your students' photo turned out, you can also get their photo retaken. Be ready to dress to impress.
Toys, electronics, and sports equipment are to be kept at home as they become a distraction at school. If your student's teacher has a special event to allow stuffies or other items, they will let you know.
Highly Capable Program Referral Now Open: October 20, 2026 - January 8, 2027. Click on the link for more information.
We NEED volunteers at MTV! Complete the Volunteer Form AND reach out to our main office at 360-426-8564 to find out ways to volunteer at MTV. We are looking for volunteers to help - let us know if you are interested in any of the following:
- on the playground and teach kids how to play football, soccer, or even four square
- at lunch to build connections to make good decisions
- in the classroom reading wih students or helping with small groups.
- in the book room to organize books or help with copying projects.
- plus so much more... community builds success in schools.
Please remember that doors open at 8:30AM for ALL students. We are having students come to the gym for breakfast. Students are then dismissed by grade level to their classes. We are asking families to not escort students to their classes as it creates additional bodies into the hallways. All volunteers must be pre-arranged with the teacher.
Pick Up and Drop Off. Please follow the directions for our staff at the crosswalk to ensure the safety of our students, family and staff. Remember to place the placard in the front window of your vehicle to assist us with efficiency of connect you and your student. Please help us keep students and family safe. If you are doing curbside pick-up or drop-off, please do not let your students out until you have passed the crosswalk. We also encourage having your student in the passenger side of the car to support their safety as they exit the vehicle. If you are walking up to the school, please park your car in a parking space - do not park on the driveway or curb. This will help expedite student pick-up/drop-off and keep everyone safe.
