Kindergarten Continuation Ceremonies

The Douglas County Libraries Page to Stage group came to MVE on Tuesday morning! They shared a short rendition of The Story of Ferdinand. The show was filled with laughter, audience participation, and buzzing bees! Our students were able to ask questions after the performance and demonstrated some very insightful thoughts!

Mountain View is keeping plastic film out of landfills with Ridwell this spring!

To participate in this limited-time recycling drive and celebrate Earth Month, bring plastic film (ziptop bags, grocery bags, bubble wrap, and lots more) to school on April 30 - May 4th and Ridwell will make sure it stays out of landfills. It’ll be turned into new TREX decking materials instead! Start collecting plastic film at home now so you have a bunch for the drive.

Curious about recycling more from home, like the school is doing? Visit our Ridwell Webpage to learn more about Ridwell—and share the page with family and friends nationwide! You can help the school earn plastic-film pickups for the entire ‘26/’27 school year if 10 new members join Ridwell Pickups or Mail-in through our school’s webpage by May 22.
