Woodland Critter Students recently had some special guests come in to speak to their class about their experiences in the military. As part of our American Symbols unit, students were able to ask them questions, listen to their stories, hear what it was like, see the uniforms they wore, and view some pictures they shared with us. It was an honor to have these Veterans visit our school and we thank them for their service to our country.

More Winter Dance Party pictures...so much FUN!!!
Last Friday, MNCS Elementary students celebrated all things winter! There was sledding in the morning and then a Winter Dance Party in the afternoon! Students had a great time celebrating the winter season dancing to music, playing glow in the dark bowling, a ping pong ball game, balloon toss, making paper snowflakes, winning prizes, and eating some delicious festive treats! What a fun way to spend an Experience Friday!
The Student Council Lunch Fundraiser was a success today! Students and staff enjoyed the delicious lunch of mac and cheese, walking taco, and lemonade prepared by our amazing student council members.

We commend our student council for their valued input at MNCS and efforts to impact our school community in a positive manner! Thank you for the delicious food!
More pictures of some festive candy houses...there were so many different creative designs- great job everyone!
In celebration of the recent holidays, MNCS students in the Frog and Critter classrooms enjoyed building candy houses. Students had a wonderful time with the help of fellow MNCS students and family members who came to show their support and join in on the fun! From colorful gumdrops, assorted chocolate candies, candy cane trails, snowy icing, and a lot of other delicious goodies- these candy houses looked too good to eat! Thank you to all our helpers and everyone did such a great job- we bet these candy houses tasted as good as they looked!
