Since November is known as the Month of Giving Thanks, each day MES will highlight faculty & staff that we are thankful for leading up to Thanksgiving break. Today, we would like to say a big THANK YOU to our Pre- K staff. Pictured are: Ms. Horn, Ms. Messick, Ms. Hartley, Ms. Frost, Ms. Gilbert, & Ms. Widener. MES is thankful to have these wonderful ladies as a part of our school!
Parents/ Guardians,
Due to the number of extra-curricular activities that are being held after school on Wednesday's, we have had to make adjustments in student pick-up locations. Beginning today, Wednesday, November 1, 2023, Good News and Choir Practice pick-up will occur at the bus entrance/teacher parking lot of the school. Please park as close to the sidewalk as possible due to the return and parking of buses. Dismissal times will remain the same; only the location has changed. Student pick-up for after-school tutoring will remain at the main MES entrance.
Thank you!

Emory and Henry College students visit Meadowview Elementary PE class. The visitors observed and played games in the gym with a first grade class.
Good afternoon,
We were all heartbroken when we learned that Cameron Craig had lost his life in the line of duty as a local Firefighter. The services to honor his sacrifice will occur on Wednesday afternoon and the procession will have a tremendous impact on traffic in our community. In order to honor Cameron's ultimate sacrifice and to ensure that our buses and car traffic do not interfere with the procession, all Washington County Public Schools will dismiss 2 hours early on Wednesday, October 25. Childcare will be available at all middle and elementary schools for working families who need that service. Each school will provide individual details prior to Wednesday.
Thank you for your understanding. We know you join us in loving, supporting, and praying for everyone involved.
Thank you,
