We proudly honored our 6th grade Yellow Brick Winners this week.
These outstanding students have truly paved the way this year through their character, leadership, kindness, and perseverance. The Yellow Brick Award recognizes students who consistently show what it means to be a Bluestreak by demonstrating GRIT each and every day. They lead by example, make positive choices, encourage others, and leave a lasting impact on our school family.
As part of this special tradition, each student placed their blue handprint on the wall to serve as a shining example for future Bluestreaks for years to come. Their handprints represent the mark they have left on MES — one of hard work, determination, and heart.
Mrs. Evers’ classroom had 3 very special students who worked hard all year earning and saving their Disney Dollars through positive choices, hard work, and classroom success.
Instead of spending their rewards right away, these girls patiently saved for the ultimate prize, a magical trip to the Bibbidi Bluestreak Boutique! Today, our sweet Bluestreak princesses were transformed into Disney royalty complete with glam, sparkle, and big smiles!
These girls are already shining princesses in our classrooms each and every day through their kindness, leadership, and hard work, but today was extra magical. And honestly… while the girls had an amazing time, we think the adults in the building may have had even MORE fun watching the magic happen!
To make the day even more magical… the princesses even found a Prince Charming roaming the playground during recess!
Our 3rd grade Bluestreaks made a BIG splash at their AR Water Celebration!
After working hard and reaching their AR goals, students enjoyed a fun-filled day of water games, laughter, and soaking up the sunshine together.
Elsa may have frozen the letters in Kindergarten… but our Bluestreaks know how to MELT the ice to keep learning!
Our little learners had so much fun discovering letters hidden in ice while building literacy skills through hands-on learning, games, and puzzles.
More fun from our 2nd grade field trip adventures! These smiling faces say it all!
Our 2nd grade Bluestreaks had the BEST day on their field trip!
Students had so much fun exploring, creating, and learning at the Children’s Museum before heading to the park to play, laugh, and enjoy time together outdoors.
Our 5th grade Bluestreaks enjoyed a well-deserved celebration today!
After working hard to meet their AR goals, students took a fun walk to Morgan’s Cafe for a delicious treat and spent time playing at the park with friends. We are so proud of their dedication to reading and the effort they put in all year long!
More memories from our 4th grade adventure at the Exotic Feline Rescue!
Our 4th graders had a WILDLY fun day on their field trip to the Exotic Feline Rescue! Students enjoyed learning about amazing big cats, conservation, and animal care while seeing these incredible animals up close.
To top off the day, they enjoyed a yummy lunch at Panda Express with lots of smiles and laughter shared along the way! What a purr-fect day full of learning, adventure, and memories for our Bluestreaks!
Mrs. Feliciano’s class had a “toy-tastic” time creating their very own Forky from Toy Story!
Not only was this a fun Disney-themed activity, but it also helped students build creativity, fine motor skills, following directions, and problem-solving skills while expressing their imaginations. Hands-on projects like these encourage teamwork, confidence, and joyful learning in the classroom.
The smiles, excitement, and joy filling our hallways remind us just how special these end-of-the-year moments are. We hope everyone enjoys a safe, relaxing, and FUN long weekend!
Our Bluestreaks have been busy making memories with Disney parties, games, puzzles, crafts, outdoor fun, and lots of laughter as we count down to a well-deserved 3-day weekend!
There’s nothing better than happy kids, fresh air, and lots of giggles echoing through our beautiful park in town.
Good Luck to Ezzy Herrera and her Casey-Westfield/Martinsville Track Team as they compete in the state track meet today at Charleston!
Adventure was in full swing at the Woodlands Park! Our first graders had the best time climbing, exploring, running, laughing, and making memories together in the sunshine before the rain rolled in.
Our seniors may be preparing for graduation, but we had three senior boys stop by who just weren’t quite ready to leave grade school behind.
They stopped by MES to play kickball on the playground during lunch with our younger Bluestreaks and even joined in on a fifth grade trivia game! Watching our oldest students laugh, play, and connect with the younger kids was such a special reminder of what makes our school community so great.
No matter how big they get, they will always be our Bluestreaks. 💙
Mrs. Skidmore’s second graders had a colorful time “chalking out” their summer plans today! From vacations and swimming to ice cream and sunshine, our Bluestreaks are dreaming big for summer break.
Our students served up some of the most delicious hand-squeezed homemade lemonade to help get the MES staff ready for the Martinsville Ag Fair!
These students worked hard creating the perfect sweet summertime treat, and they did an amazing job serving staff with big smiles. Big Al’s… you might just have some competition coming your way! 😉
Thank you to our students for brightening our day one cup of lemonade at a time!
Our first graders mixed up the alphabet today to make sure they didn’t miss their special trip to the Woodlands!Instead of waiting for “W Day,” they skipped ahead to beat the rainy weather.
No matter how you mix up the letters, one thing stayed the same… the HUGE smiles, nonstop giggles, and all the fun these Bluestreaks had exploring and playing together!
We wrapped up our Growing Good Character program for the school year with Mrs. Carver! Throughout the year, students were nominated by staff members for going above and beyond expectations, showing GRIT, leading by example, and making MES a positive place to learn and grow.
We are so proud of all of the students who were recognized for their kindness, responsibility, respect, and leadership this year! A special thank you goes to Mrs. Carver for spearheading this wonderful program and helping encourage such positive character traits in our Bluestreak students.
