Parents: Due to the power outage yesterday, our schoolwide internet is unstable today. If you have difficulty connecting via Zoom or Google Meet, please do not panic. It could be that your child's teacher is unable to connect at this time.
We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving Break and look forward to welcoming you back to school tomorrow.
Please remember if your child is experiencing ANY COVID symptoms please keep them at home. Also if they have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive please remember they must quarantine until they are clear to return to school. This is necessary to ensure all of our students and staff stay safe and healthy.
Don't forget to wear a mask, wash your hands, and wait 6 feet apart.

The staff of MES would like to wish each member of our Mustang Family a very Happy Thanksgiving. Like everything else during quarantine, this holiday season may be filled with tough choices and changes for families.
The good news is that the holidays are also a time when gratitude is front and center – and gratitude has been shown to help kids (and adults) be resilient through tough times, from experiencing more positive emotions to sleeping better. Thanksgiving is the perfect holiday to start practicing.
1. Start a gratitude journal. From now until Thanksgiving, have your child write a sentence or draw a picture of something they’re grateful for each day. Challenge your child to be specific – the more they pay attention to details, the more they’ll start to notice the positive things in their life.
2. Write or draw Thanksgiving cards. If your child is sad about not getting to see a family member or friend this holiday season, channeling it into writing or art can be soothing for them – and a sweet surprise for the recipient.
We look forward to seeing our students as they return on November 30. As we return, it will be imperative that if your child is experiencing any flu-like symptoms such as congestion, sore throat, cough, or fever – you keep them at home. They can join in any lesson remotely and still be counted present. If you are unable to join the remote lesson, they can complete their work for that day and be counted present as well. We must all work together to ensure the health and well-being of our students and staff.
Again, Happy Thanksgiving and we are so grateful to be part of an amazing school family.
God Bless you and have a safe holiday.
See you on Monday.
