School is in session. Summer break has come to end. Parents please help us out by establishing a daily routine from Sunday evening-Friday morning. Please ensure your child gets at least 8-hours of sleep. The brain and the body works better when it has been allowed adequate rest. The school day begins promptly at 8:30. Please make sure your child is on time. Tardiness creates a disequilibrium (sense of imbalance/anxiety) for students walking into their classroom late. Morning meetings will begin promptly each day. The meetings will help students learn about each other and their teacher, teach students how to greet each other, teach societal norms, and how to work together. These are very important life skills that will be taught. Please allow your child the opportunity to learn these by ensuring their arrival by 8:30. Doors open at 8:15. Free breakfast is served daily upon students walking into the classroom. (No fast food will be allowed in the cafeteria!) ESP is available. It operates from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Parents please make sure that your child is reading 15 minutes every day. Lexia is available to help with reading. IReady is available to help with math. Students should use their usernames and passwords used during the school year. Don’t forget the public library is a great resource for idle time. Stop by the library and check out a book or two once a week. While you there, allow our Mustangs to log into their Lexia or IReady accounts.

Solar Eclipse!
Have you heard that on Monday, August 21st, a solar eclipse will occur? MTSU will be providing our Mustangs with glasses in order to view the solar eclipse safely. Mark your calendars. I hope that you will join us in marking this once in a life-time event. Unless you are planning on living 500 more years, this is it. Mustang Nation will be having a Black Out Day. All students will be asked to wear black to mark this monumental event that will take place. I am so excited. All 3rd-6th grade students will take a field trip over to MTSU to experience the solar eclipse. Kindergarten-2nd grade will stay on Reeves Campus. Parents you are invited to join us at noon.
No Dismissal from the front office after 3:15 (Safety First!)
Official Mustang Closing:
Remember that you are loved at Mustang Nation and there is nothing, absolutely nothing you can do about it!
