MES is getting a playground renovation. Mr. Rohrig was so happy to see one of his former Geometry students putting his math skills to work during the concrete forming process.





Milan Elementary was featured on the Character Counts page for our participation in Character Counts week. Great work, students and staff!!

MES will be changing the parking pattern for Mrs. Obermeyer's Pre-K class. Please see the attached diagram. We will also dismiss her class at 2:15 on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. We will dismiss at 1:45 on Wednesdays. Parents will park and then exit their cars to pick up students along the wall of the building. This is to reduce the number of cars in the PM car line in an effort to increase student safety.

Please be aware of the car line pattern. When you are picking your child up at the end of the day, we ask that you park in the lot and then pick them up from the sidewalk. You will want to walk to the sidewalk to get them. Here is the car line pattern: https://bit.ly/MEScarline

If you are going to be dropping your child off for school, please follow the pattern for the car line. You can access the pattern here: https://bit.ly/MEScarline
Just a reminder, for safety we do not have parents walk their child to their classrooms. We will take them from the curb.

MES Parents: If you are going to be in the car line tomorrow, please be patient. We want to get as many students out as quickly as we can. Please follow instructions from the staff and ask questions if needed. We have A LOT of students at MES this year and want to get them into school and out of the school as quickly and safely as possible.
PRO TIP: Have your child sit on the passenger side of the car so we can quickly access them.
