PAWprint May 19, 2023
Hello Bulldog Families,
We hope you have a PAWsome weekend ahead. We want to express our thanks and gratitude to all our Bulldog families for your support all year. Thanks especially to our PTA and many parent volunteers that have helped to support our meetings and events over this year. We look forward to more learning and fun to come as we wind down the school year.
Take a look at all that is coming up ahead from the district and our school:
Destiny Discover is your one-stop shop for all your physical and digital resources for reading. Students can log on to Destiny Discover through the Mathewson Media Center website, linked HERE, and find tons of e-books to read at any time. If they need refreshers on how to log-in, Mrs. Wetmore linked a video on the homepage of the Mathewson website to guide you through the steps. Please reach out to Mrs. Wetmore at any time with questions!
Mathewson Celebrates Memorial Day: Operation Poppy: This year we will continue our tradition of planting our Poppy Field out front to thank the many men and women that have served our country. We hope you will stop by on Memorial Day Weekend to check out the messages of thanks in our field. We are planning to plant on the 25th or 26th.
