Important Reminder About Our Car Line

Our carline queues on Barclay Place, which is a residential street. Please do not block the road by parking next to parked cars. Instead, park behind cars to keep the street clear for traffic. MES staff will direct the carline when carpool starts. Thank you for being considerate neighbors!

Lost and Found Volunteers Needed

Volunteer to organize and maintain our school's extensive lost-and-found collection. Sweatshirts, books, lunch boxes, and water bottles – you name it, we've found it! We need one volunteer each week to commit to one hour (or less) of sorting and organizing items so they can be returned to their owners.
