In the book The Wild Robot, Mr. Beaver used some wood to make a new foot for Roz. What would you use to make a new foot for Roz? Why would you use that material?
Title I & Title III Family Movie Night is almost here! Join us on Tuesday, April 8th, or Wednesday, April 9th, for a free showing of The Wild Robot! This year, we’re going all in on our drive-in theme, so instead of pizza, families will receive a $5 snack voucher for the Goochland Snack Shack. Gates open at 5:30 PM—arrive early to avoid the lines!
A special shoutout to our Den Leaders for their leadership and service! They are spearheading a community service project to support the Louisa Animal Shelter, which is at critical capacity. Now through March 28th, we’re collecting donations of towels, blankets, treats, collars, leashes, and cat litter. If you can contribute, our students would love your help in making a difference!
Fox Families, I am so grateful for each and every one of you. Our staff, students, and families make MNES such a special place, and I couldn’t ask for a better school community. Thank you for your support, kindness, and dedication to our Foxes.
Let’s make it a fantastic week—stay kind, work hard, and keep that Fox spirit strong!
Foxes out!
