School-Wide Field Trip Tomorrow!
America First and RSL have teamed up to offer all Midvale Elementary School students and staff the opportunity to go on a field trip to the America First Field on Tuesday, December 3, to meet RSL players, tour the stadium, enjoy some lunch, and more! There are big surprises in store, so make sure that your student is in school on Tuesday, December 3, on time and ready to go. Remember, the first school bell rings at 8:15am. We are so excited!
Last week to pick up your items…
Please, please, come and get your students’ clothing and other items that they are missing! There are hoodies, jackets, backpacks, lunch boxes and more!
Anything that is not claimed by its owner by Friday, December 6, will be donated.
And for the future, make sure your students come home with the same clothing they left with, and put their names in them just in case!

Families, please join us with your students for a donut and activity. Miss Christie (school counselor) and Miss Josie (school social worker) will be sharing ways to support students at home with big feelings as well as resources for students and families.
