Meadowside Elementary School

Good Evening Meadowside Families -

Thank you to all our families who participated in our second annual career day!  Our students loved hearing from our guests about all the different fields -- and thoroughly enjoyed getting dressed up themselves! We had such an amazing representation of careers across the grades -- our students' eyes were opened for sure! Thank you Miss Smith for all you did to make the day a success!  

District School Climate Survey: Please take a moment to fill out the survey that was sent to you via email earlier this afternoon.  The direct link to the survey can be accessed directly here:  Parent/Guardian Survey Link  As we shared in the email Please respond honestly—this survey is anonymous.  If you have more than one child in our school system, you can complete a survey for each child.  We appreciate your time in providing us with valuable feedback to help us analyze our district, as well as work on our continuous improvement plans.  The survey will be open until June 6th.
