👑 Attention Preschool Parents 👑
The MVES Friends Royal Ball is Thursday, February 13th.


Wishing our Mustangs the best of luck as they head to the District Spelling Bee! We’re so proud of you all and can’t wait to see you shine. You've got this!


Even with the power out, the energy was still high! Students stayed safe in their rooms, creating memories with classmates—playing games, reading in the dark, and making the best of it all. Sometimes the best moments happen when you least expect them!

❄️Preschool has been studying snow/ice and polar animals! They have created their own snowstorm in a jar, ice skated with friends, hibernated in bear caves, built ice castles, etc.
This is a favorite unit for our students and they have really enjoyed it.
