🎃👻 Happy Halloween from MHE! 🧡💜
Wishing all of our incredible families a very Happy Halloween! We hope you have a spooktacular day filled with fun, laughter, and maybe just a few treats!
We've had such an amazing time celebrating Halloween at school this year! Take a look back at some of the fantastic moments from our events:
First, we marched through the halls and showed off our incredible costumes in our annual Halloween Parade!
Next, our classrooms were buzzing with excitement during our Halloween Classroom Parties!
We then rounded out our celebrations with a fantastic community event at our Trunk or Treat!
We are so thankful for our incredible community that makes events like these possible.
Be safe and have a memorable evening trick-or-treating!
Happy Halloween!
🚀 Blast from the Past: Our 2nd Grade Musical! 🎶
Let's take a moment to look back at the truly "Out of This World" performance by our second graders last Wednesday!
Our amazing young stars absolutely shined in their space-themed musical! From the dazzling costumes to the stellar singing and acting, they transported the audience to the cosmos. It was incredible to see their hard work, teamwork, and confidence on full display.
This musical was the perfect launchpad for our school's theme this year: "Leadership is Out of This World!"
The students demonstrated extraordinary leadership skills by:
Collaborating to memorize lines and choreography.
Encouraging each other backstage.
Persevering through practices to deliver an amazing final show!
A massive thank you to our music teacher, Ms. Lloyd, and all the teachers and parents who helped make this performance a gravitational success!
We are so proud of our second-grade leaders!
