Red Ribbon Week - Dress Up Days


This year Mt. Carmel Elementary School would like to highlight our community partnerships that are helping meet the needs of our students. The Brown Bag Buddies program, run through the First Christian Church Disciples of Christ, is meeting the needs of our students by providing supplemental weekend nutrition items and snacks to Pre-Kindergarten - 2nd grade students.
This year MCES partnered with the High School Rotary program known as the Interact Club to help raise awareness on food insecurity. Senior members of the Interact Club read “Lulu and the Hunger Monster” to our students and the response was great. The referrals for the program went from 18 families being served to 32!
Our student’s had a chance to hear from high school students who they look up to that there is no shame in saying you need help, especially when you're hungry!
MCES would like to thank the Interact Club members, Jason Miller, Justus Groves, and Anthony Bleyer for reading the story and to our Brown Bag Buddies for stepping up year after year and meeting this need.

Head Lice Information: With colder weather coming and kiddos spending more time together in closer spaces, it is time to be a little more aware of head lice. Just a reminder that scratching is the most common sign of lice, especially if the child is scratching behind the ears and at the nape of the neck. If you see your child scratching please take a look. Head lice are spread through person to person contact with hats, clothing, brushes and etc. Lice do not jump or fly. Please talk with your children and encourage them not share their belongings with others. Parents please be diligent inspecting your child's head daily for the signs of head lice. If you have any questions or would like more education please let me know. Stephanie Kolb BSN-RN, PEL-CSN
