MES students worked on measurements to the nearest centimeter last week! Mastering basic measurement skills provides a solid foundation for understanding more complex mathematical concepts in the future.
MES students have been actively engaged in math workplaces! Math workplaces involve hands-on activities that allow students to practice math skills in a fun and interactive way. From puzzles and games to real-life problem-solving scenarios, our students are diving deep into the world of math.
Stuff the Bus week was a success! ✅ We thank the Stuff the Bus team 🚌 and our supportive community for donating school supplies for children in our area. 💜 Every donation, no matter how small, can change a student's entire school year. 🎒✏️
We have several job openings! We are looking for an English Language Learner Paraprofessional, an administrative assistant for the SRTC campus, bus drivers, and more. Follow this link for details: https://bit.ly/3drEWOx
Busses are running about 30 minutes late. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Autobuses van tarde como 30 minutos. Disculpa la molestia.
Summer School starts tomorrow! Doors open at 7:45, students are marked tardy after 8:05. Jumpstart and 1st grade parents please use the B hallway entrance. This car line will be similar to the main car line. Plan to enter, from Dunn & Linden, and stay single file. Once inside the drive, your child / children may then exit the vehicle and step onto the sidewalk. Your child will exit on the driver’s side of the vehicle. There will be staff to assist students as needed, but you do not have to wait on staff for your child / children to exit the vehicle. Students will be directed to enter the building through the B Hallway door.
This will allow students to enter closer to their classroom.
MES Tradition Continues
Third grade students will ring the school bell located at the front entrance of the parking lot on the last day of school. This has been a tradition at Monett Elementary School for some time. The bell signifies leaving the MES campus and moving on in their education. We would like to invite parents to attend this outside celebration.
If you are able to come, please park your vehicle in the bus loop. You may then walk with your student as they take turns ringing the bell. We hope this gives you a great opportunity to take pictures of your child. We will begin ringing the bell at 10:00 or shortly after. Classes line up as they come.
If you choose to take your child after the bell ringing, please let your child's teacher know. You will not need to check them out of the office because it is so close to dismissal.
Basketball opportunity - daughter of Dave & Donna Beckett and a 2009 Monett High School graduate shared a super exciting opportunity for the Monett area!
I recently have been hired as the camp director for Dana Ford Basketball Camps through my company Denae's Virtual Desk. This year Dana Ford has decided to bring a camp to Monett for 2 days in June. The camp will be for K-12 grade during the fall of 2023 and will take place on June 19 & 20 at Monett High School. I have a flyer I would love to share with you.

Ms. Johnson's students went on a fun-filled field trip to the Dickerson Park Zoo this month! Students explored nature, saw amazing animals, and had a blast with their classmates!
Today we celebrated teachers of the past, present, and future. Students dressed up as teachers to show their appreciation and support for all the outstanding educators who have impacted their lives. 👩🏫👨🏫
Teachers are an integral part of our lives and communities, and we owe them a debt of gratitude for all they do. 💜💛
Ms. Wilson's students gained new skills in writing "how to" texts with plants as the topic. Students successfully planted seeds and bulbs by gathering all the necessary materials and following a step-by-step process. Not only did students do a fantastic job planting, but their writing turned out fantastic! Great job, students! 🌱🪴
