Fight Flu and Germs (Lucha contra la gripe y los gérmenes)
February 3rd, 2014 squanpto National Junior Honor Society
January 22nd, 2014 squanpto Middle school students (grades 6-8) that have a 95% average in their core classes will be invited to apply for the National Junior Honor Society. Averages are calculated after the second marking period grades. The NJHS is primarily a service organization. Students that receive an application do not have to apply to be in the NJHS. We encourage students to really think about if they would be a good fit for the NJHS if they are accepted. Filling out an application does not guarantee acceptance. The application is lengthy and requires students to have a minimum total of 10 service hours in order to be considered for acceptance. Since it is a service club, students are expected to have developed good habits of giving back to the school or community prior to receiving the application. Students are typically given a month to complete the application. A panel of 4 teachers then reads each application and if students meet all criteria, they will be extended an invitation for membership. An induction ceremony takes place in the spring.
Agenda for January 9, 2013 PTO Meeting
January 9th, 2014 squanpto Melissa Dayton from You Can Not Be Replaced will be our guest speaker for the evening.
Stop Bugging Our Children!
December 16th, 2013 squanpto 
Don’t “bug” your holidays by not checking your child’s head for lice if they are itchy or scratching their head. The little critters like to hide in hats, combs, brushes, helmets and other items we put on or use on our heads and necks. Please remember that they do need a food source (yuck) so they can’t stay alive very long on inanimate objects. The sooner they are found the better so that treatment can begin in the early stages. The bug looks like a small insect and the nit is the egg. The bug lays the eggs on the hair and they quickly stick like glue to the hair shaft. If it flakes off, it’s not lice, just a dry scalp! Here’s hoping you have an itch free, wonderful holiday and feel free to email me with any questions. When in doubt, check that head out! PS This message was requested by a parent so please do not think that lice are running rampant at MES!
