Elementary is proud to show off our new look
for our 10th anniversary year! Over the
summer our school was completely redecorated
with a new color scheme centered around our
school colors, burgundy and gold! Freshly
painted walls and newly carpeted hallways
and classroom floors provide a bright and
warm environment for everyone. It has been
great to see how excited our students and
families have been about the project.
As the principal
of the MLGES TEAM, I am thrilled to report
that we are a school that strives to work
together to help everyone achieve at the
highest learning levels. There are several
new strategies in place to assist your
children this year. The Early Intervention
Program (EIP)/ RTI team is working to
provide many different learning strategies
to meet the needs of the various learners
within our school! Classroom teachers and
these specialty teams are collaborating in
an effort to provide the right type of
assistance for our student body. Morning
Mania Sessions and Breakfast Club Models
lend a different approach to instructional
assistance. Students work early morning on
skills that prepare them for the day and
help them review difficult concepts. Our
daily instruction is focused on all subjects
with a school emphasis on Math and Science
this year.
MLGES continues
to focus on our Time to Teach School-Wide
Discipline Plan that focuses on keeping
students in their classes for instruction.
Students and entire classes will be awarded
for excellent behavior each nine weeks.
As a staff, we
continue to place emphasis on our Chick-Fil-A
Character Education Program. Each month we
focus on a "word of the month" and provide
activites and lessons by our school
counselor, Mrs. Spears.
As you can see,
the faculty and staff at MLGES believe in
focusing activites on the "total child" in
an effort to help our students develop well
academically, socially, and physically. We
encourage you to join us in providing the
best activities for our children. We are
committed to another great year!
