Good Afternoon Meadowside Families,
Congratulations to all our students in the district Art Show! Mr. Hidalgo and I were so excited to see all the amazing artwork on display at Parsons. Didn’t go to the opening this week? That is okay -- it will be on display at Parsons for a number of weeks. Be sure to check out the middle school and high school art work downstairs as well as the elementary art work upstairs! Thanks Mr. Hidalgo for all you do to support our artists!

STEM Highlights:
Grade 1: Our field trip to the Foran High School Planetarium was out of this world!
