🧡🖤 A Sticky Celebration at MCES! 🖤🧡
When MCES shattered their Monster Dash fundraising record, there was only one way to celebrate… duct-taping Mrs. Smith, teachers, and the PTO president to the wall!
Students and staff had an absolute blast turning this reward into a full-on sticky spectacle.
Halls were filled with lots of tape, lots of laughs, and lots of school spirit as our brave volunteers became part of the wall itself!
From start to finish, it was the perfect mix of teamwork, fun, and excitement!

This is a friendly reminder that we celebrated Thanksgiving on Monday with our special community guests! Tomorrow for lunch , we will serve cheeseburgers or chicken tenders.
Please note important information about the Monster Dash this Thursday. Tickets went home in Monday folders yesterday afternoon, so be sure to stash them in a safe place. Thank you to everyone for your support of our fundraiser. Let's BOO this thing!

🧪✨ Science came alive yesterday at Morgan County Elementary School! ✨🧪
Our students were amazed as Dr. Maurice Snook, a retired chemist with the USDA’s Research Service, brought the magic of chemistry right into our school. From bubbling reactions to colorful experiments, Dr. Snook showed students that science isn’t just about textbooks—it’s exciting, surprising, and FUN!
Thank you, Dr. Snook, for sparking curiosity and inspiring the next generation of scientists! 🔬💡

Tomorrow, we are making a small adjustment to our lunch schedule to accommodate a very special event. Every three years, Mr. Nelson, one of our 5th grade teachers, invites a visiting scientist to share exciting science experiments with our students. This is always such a wonderful and memorable learning opportunity for everyone!
Because of the size of our school, we aren't able to hold these assemblies without adjusting our lunch routine. For tomorrow only, students will enjoy sack lunches (choice of PB&J or turkey and cheese). They will eat with their teachers at varying times throughout the day.
For this reason, we will not be able to host lunch visitors tomorrow. Thank you so much for your understanding and support as we provide our students with these unique and enriching experiences.

We've got some events tonight! Hope to see you this evening!

The book fair is this week!! Each ELA class has an assigned shopping day, so be sure to send money on the correct day for your student! The book fair will be open after school until 6:00 P.M. on Tuesday if you want to shop with your student. Friday is an open shopping day for all grade levels.

MCES will celebrate Georgia Reads Day on Monday with a lot of fun reading activities. We would love to have our students show some spirit Monday and wear red, black, Georgia, or Morgan spirit wear to school!

To ensure everyone's safety, the last check out for today will be at 1:15pm. There will be no check outs after 1:15pm or during travel to and from the parade. Thank you for your cooperation in helping us keep this a fun and safe event for all!

Today, we pause to remember September 11, 2001. We honor the lives lost, the heroes who answered the call, and the resilience of our nation.
We Will Never Forget.
We Will Never Forget.
