Dear MHS Families,
Is everyone excited???? I know the MHS Staff is ready to go! We have waited an entire year to say hello in person to our 3-5th grade students and the time is finally here! Those third graders who's families opted for hybrid instruction, will be back this Thursday, March 11 and our 4-5th graders on Monday, March 15.
I have a couple of resources that will hopefully answer any questions your child or you might have about our return. I had to update our reopening playbook (one last time) and so I am again attaching it to this note, below.
With the help of Lauren Child and Hector Batista, we also updated our Tk-2nd grade video to include entrance gates for upper grades and I even got a peacock to pose for me! I have attached that here as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iijUNA74YF8
So looking forward to the students return!

Dear MHS Families,
What a day!!! Best ever!
And, I was lucky to end it watching the finished product of our assembly. I love curating the assembly, and once Mr. Lopez puts it together and I get to see it in its finished product, I can't help but keep a huge smile on my face. Thanks to this week's contributors, former MHS Roadrunner Kennedy Mitchell, Mrs. Bishop and her students, Mrs. Shanny and Mr Lopez!
Please enjoy,
Dr. Narro

Dear MHS Families,
We kick off Black/African History Month. A big thank you to Mrs. Diggs, for her beautiful rendition of Lift Every Voice and Sing; Mrs. King's students who shared their reflections upon learning about Dr. Katherine Johnson and of course a big shout out to Mr. Lopez for putting our video together.
Here is the link for tomorrow:

I am sorry to be sending just now-I sent out via ParentSquare and was just told this does not go directly to students,

Please join us for our weekly assembly--there is a lot to catch up on! During the assembly we have quite a few announcements, including the Kick off of the Great Kindness Challenge. I hope that your child and indeed the whole family takes this challenge with us. Attached you will find suggestions on how to keep kindness at the forefront this---and every week!
Additionally we have two of our Dual Language Immersion Classes singing together a song called Color Esperanza. I have attached the words in Spanish and in English in case your chidl would like to sing along!
Enjoy the assembly!

Dear Parents,
This week's assembly is a tribute to the great civil rights leader, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. After our pledge and announcements, we begin the celebration. We start with the protest song "We Shall Overcome," follow it with the words from the speech "I Have a Dream" and then move into some interpretaions of MLK's speech and implications of some of the quotes attributed to Dr. King. We end with Stevie Wonder singing Happy Birthday! (What would a birthday tribute be without singing happy birthday? )
As every good party goes...this assembly is a little long, even though there was so much we left out! If you are viewing this assembly with your children, you might stop at Stevie Wonder (which is 23 minutes in) or you might just want to do the sing-a-long. Danciing is also encouraged. Please take pictures!!
The making and editing of this assembly was thought provoking, inspired soul searching, and brought about big emotional responses. You'll hear it in the teachers' and students' voices. It is hard to think of the work and words of MLK from over 55 years ago without being stirred by their relevance today. This was not lost on our students. Our 5th grade students offered sophisticated and mature responses as they linked words of protest from the 60s to protests of the day.
if you are a parent of a little one, I want to be sensitive to their viewing. As stated already, the video is a little longer than usual. If you choose, you might stop after the viewing of Ms. Zelenski's students work and I would suggest a video by Kid President https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0mSOAA7hHE&t=15si
Monday is a National Holiday and a day set for volunteering. I encourage you to make a plan with your children and ask them what they would like to do to make a better home; community; and world! I bet you will be surprised about how thoughtful their responses are bound to be!

We are all a Learning Family,
