Counselor Appreciation Week is February 2nd- 6th! We are excited to celebrate our outstanding guidance counselor here at East, Mrs. Hammond. Mrs. Hammond goes above and beyond to support and encourage our students. She was hired in the district in 1999 and has been here at East since it was built in 2005.

Mrs. Hammond's thoughtful encouragement and consistent presence helps students to feel seen and supported. She is constantly reaching beyond the school walls to support families. Our students love when she teaches lessons in the classrooms and enjoy small group lunch buddy time with her. Please encourage your child to say thank you to Mrs. Hammond for all she does to make East a wonderful place to learn and grow!

Please join us in thanking our board of education members for their service. January is School Board Recognition Month, and we are celebrating all month long. Help us thank our board members for guiding our students, schools, and community to new heights.

Several students participated in the 6th Annual CodeWizardsHQ Logic Challenge at home. This event is designed to build 21st-century computational thinking and problem-solving skills through fun, interactive logic challenges. Students completed one challenge each week and tried to move up the leaderboard. Congratulations to Midview East’s Top 3 finishers in the Code Wizards Logic Challenge. (1st Place - Samantha Watkins, 2nd Place - Caleb Mingus, 3rd Place - Kaylee Lengyel) All participants in the challenge earned extra Middie Bucks and the top 3 were rewarded with a certificate and prize. Mrs. Kauffman will send out a notice in Rooms when the next challenge is available.

Mrs. Triplett's 5th grade science students became the teachers last week. Students worked in small groups to research and teach the class all about a form of energy-mechanical, electrical, light, thermal, or sound. They worked together to create a poster to help them teach the class...and their teacher! What a fun day we all had.

Ms. Mertz’s 6th grade science classes are studying the fascinating world of cells and their organelles! We are learning how different parts of a cell work together to keep living things functioning. To bring their learning to life, students created hands-on cell models, helping them visualize and better understand each organelle’s role. It was a fun way to combine science knowledge with creativity and teamwork.

At Midview East, we view attendance not only as a requirement but as a commitment. We want every student to feel supported, encourages, and motivated to be in school each day. Consistent attendance is the foundation of learning and plays a vital role in helping students succeed in both the classroom and beyond.

We're excited to shout out a student who's showing up and giving their best!
