NO SCHOOL on Friday January 12 and Monday January 15. Friday is a grading day for teachers and Monday is the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday. On this holiday, consider following Dr. King’s example by doing service for others with your family. Here are some ideas:
-
Pick up trash in your neighborhood or a local park
-
Make “caring cards” for seniors living at the Midvale Senior Center and deliver them with a flower.
-
Collect old towels, t-shirts, blankets and donate them to a local animal shelter.
-
Shovel snow from the sidewalks around your neighborhood.
-
Write a thank you note to someone you are grateful for – maybe the librarian at the local library, the mailman, the cashier at the grocery store, the snow plow driver.

LIVING TRADITIONS 2024: This year East Midvale focuses on AFRICA. Grades will study Chad, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Morocco and Kenya to learn about the geography, culture, food, language, sports and occupations. Families are invited to the Living Traditions Family Night on Thursday February 1 to “travel” to each of these countries to learn what our students learned. During brain boosters, art projects will be created for the Art Walk and students will learn a game played in Africa. Food and entertainment will be provided that night. In addition, the 5th grade science fair projects will be on display for our community to see.
