Important Traffic Update for MES Families
To help reduce congestion and improve safety during morning arrival and afternoon dismissal, MES has added an additional entrance to the campus parking lot.
Beginning immediately, families will use designated entry and exit points when entering and leaving campus.
📍 Please refer to the visual below to see:
ENTRANCE ONLY location

Following this traffic flow will help keep students safe and allow for a smoother, faster drop-off and pick-up process for everyone.

📘 STAAR Interim Testing Reminder (Grades 3–6) 📘
This is a reminder that tomorrow, Tuesday, students in 3rd–6th grade will take the Reading STAAR Interim assessment, and on Thursday, they will take the Math STAAR Interim assessment.
Please help your child do their best by making sure they:
✅ Get a good night’s rest
✅ Arrive at school on time
✅ Eat a healthy breakfast at home or school
We will provide each student with a testing snack, but some students like to bring their own. Please see the flyer below for information regarding snacks from home.
What is a STAAR Interim Assessment?
STAAR Interim tests are practice-style assessments used in Texas schools to help teachers monitor student progress throughout the year. These assessments align with the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and provide valuable information about what students have mastered and where they may need additional support. Interim results do not affect student grades but are an important tool for guiding instruction and preparing students for the official STAAR assessment in the spring.
Thank you for your continued support in helping our students succeed! 🌟
