Attention Sixth Grade Parents!
Below are updates regarding our two upcoming Field Days this week.
First, it appears that the weather will be perfect for Thursday afternoon’s K-1st Grade Field Day from 12:00-2:00. So, that Field Day is still scheduled for that date/time.
Unfortunately, though, due to the rain that is predicted for Friday, we have decided to move up 2nd-3rd Grade Field Day to the morning of Thursday, March 21st from 9:30-11:30. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
For Field Day, students should wear sneakers and the color t-shirt that their teacher has chosen for their class. They should also bring a water bottle (please write the student's name on it) and sunscreen (this is optional, but recommended).
If parents plan to come for either Field Day on Thursday, please be sure to report to the Visitor Table (located at the bottom of the stairs in the front, lower parking lot) to get a visitor's pass before joining your child's class. In addition, if you choose to sign your student out following their Field Day, this will be done with the teacher back in the classroom.
Finally, 4th-6th Grade Field Day is still scheduled for next Thursday, March 28th. If any changes to that day need to be made due to weather, we will communicate that next week.
Registration for K5 for the 2024-2025 school year will take place on March 5th at MLES from 8:30-3:00. This is for students who will be 5 years old on or before September 1, 2024. If you have any questions, please contact the front office.
Student Council Spirit Week is February 20th-23rd!
There's SNOW Place Like MLES!!!
If your child will be 4 years old on or before September 1, 2024… now is the time to register them for 4K for next year! Please see our registration page for forms, information, and frequently asked questions: https://www.anderson4.org/page/4k-kindergarten-registration
REMINDER: All Anderson School District 4 schools and offices are CLOSED today (December 18) through Monday, January 1, for our Winter Break. Our staff returns on Tuesday, January 2 for professional development, and students return to school on Wednesday, January 3.
With cold/flu season upon us, many parents have asked about when they should or should not send their child to school. DHEC has created a brochure to help with making those decisions. Click the link below for more information.

Congratulations to these students who were selected for the ACDA Elementary All-State Honor Choir!
Congrats to these students!!
Fall Pictures will be sent home this afternoon in Thursday Folders. Each child will receive an envelope with a full package of pictures to review. If you are not interested in purchasing any of the pictures, simply return the entire packet to your child’s teacher. However, if you are interested in purchasing any (or all) of the pictures, simply follow the directions that are printed on the collection envelope that is included in the packet. You will have two options for payment: return money in the enclosed envelope or pay online (directions for online payment are included). The due date for returning payment and any pictures that you do not wish to purchase is October 27th.
Finally, if your child was not present for Picture Day, we will be doing make-up pictures on November 14th.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call the front office.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), will conduct a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) TOMORROW! The national test will consist of two portions, testing WEA and EAS capabilities. Both tests are scheduled to begin at approximately 2:20pm ET on Wednesday, October 4.
The WEA portion of the test will be directed to ALL consumer cell phones. The test message will display in either English or in Spanish, depending on the language settings of the wireless handset. The EAS portion of the test will be sent to radios and televisions.
*** PLEASE NOTE ***
Experts advise people at risk for domestic violence who keep a hidden safety phone at home to switch that phone OFF during FEMA's October 4, 2023, nationwide test of the National Emergency Alert system so the phone's existence is not inadvertently revealed to an abuser.

On National Custodian Appreciation Day, we just want to let the custodial team at MLES know how much we appreciate what they do. Without their work, our students wouldn’t have a safe and clean school in which to learn.
DHEC will be providing flu shots to students at MLES on Wednesday, October 18th. If you are interested in having your child receive a flu shot at school on this date, there are two options to register them.
