Hi Memorial Families,

This past week was full of amazing experiences that reminds me of the fantastic community that we are a part of. From the Spooktacular Family Night, to the Parents v. Students Kickball Monthly Activity and everything in between. We should be proud of what we are doing for the students of Memorial Elementary.

As we head into the second quarter, we want to emphasize the importance of consistent attendance. Every school day matters! Being at school each day helps students maintain strong routines, develop friendships, and stay engaged in their learning. Thank you for your continued partnership in making school attendance a priority and supporting your child's success.

Congrats to our students of the week showing PRIDE in the classroom. Our focus continues to be on showing PRIDE between transitioning of tasks. That means we are looking for focused learners.

Once a month we pick a few students who embodied component of our Journey of a Blue Devil: Communicate Effectively, Show Empathy, Think Critically, Demonstrate Adaptability, Live Responsibly. Congrats to these students for being Model Blue Devil Students. They enjoyed, snacks, music, and video games in the middle of a school day.
