On this day let's remember...
95 years ago today, a King was born.
He was a dreamer…and so much more.
He was a student of the human condition and a strategist for humane change.
He was a teacher, a thinker, a truth teller.
King.

All Pre-K thru grade 5 participated in Hot Cocoa and a Card day earlier this week, hosted by Ms. Eisenbeil with many helpers. Over 100 holiday cards were made for the residents at Mountainside Nursing home and accepted by their Director, Donna Rossman. Students not only helped to warm the heart of those residents, but also the heart of the Grinch! By the end of the day, the Grinch's heart was exploding with love. Way to go Margaretville elementary students!!
Also, a big thank you to Mrs. DiBenedetto and her art students for putting together all the card materials and of course, the Grinch.









Lots of drumming, scarf-dancing, bean-bag tossing, freeze-dancing fun in music classes this week, but nothing compares to the parachute. Varisty Chorus Concert Party was legendary, as they were the only ones who could figure out how to get it to hover against the ceiling 🤩





There was a quite a bit of Holiday Cheer at MCS today ♥️











The 6th grade students were so excited and enjoyed reading about life and school in Brazil.
