Your child will receive a form this week to return if you are interested in receiving a food bag each Friday. Students that are in need and return the form will be able to pick up a bear bag of non perishable food items each Friday afternoon.
On October the 5th (Thursday), we will hold our fourth Bike To School Event. Bikes are provided, pick up and return a permission slip to the MAMS front office ASAP, if you would like to participate.
We still have COVID test kits available for free to any parent requesting one for their child. Reach out to our nurses office to request a kit.
