Pierce recently chose to spend his earned points on a Lego building activity, and what a great choice it was! He carefully designed and created a bird, including wings and a beak. 🐦

From start to finish, Pierce showed incredible patience and determination, working hard until every last piece was in place and the final result turned out perfect!

Adventures with Adams is such a special part of my school day! 🎉

We love celebrating moments like these, where students are recognized for making positive choices and get to enjoy meaningful, creative experiences. Way to go, Pierce! 👏

🎉Adventures with Points🎉 Ethan, Ledge, Hank, Steven and Jayce decided to spend their earned points on a can crushing adventure, but with a fun twist: it was a windy day!💨 The boys embraced the challenge, turning the gusty conditions into even more excitement as they chased down cans and bags. It was amazing to see this group of friends come together, use their points, and create such a fun, memorable experience. These boys truly know how to turn a challenge into an adventure! 💪🥳

🌟 Recycling Update from MWES! 🌟

We’re thrilled to share that our first pick-up from the bins at our community Kroger has happened and was a success! A huge thank you to our amazing community for jumping in to support our aluminum can recycling efforts. ♻️

A special shout-out to the Lagler family for helping monitor the bins and ensuring they get emptied—your dedication makes a big difference! 🙌

Just a friendly reminder:

*The bins are located at both sets of doors at Kroger for a convenient place to recycle.

*Only empty cans should go in these bins.

*If you have a larger amount of cans, you can drop them off at the bin behind the school or call MWES at 869-3000 for pick-up.

We also want to thank Kroger for encouraging recycling and partnering with us in this contest. The competition ends April 30th, so keep those cans coming and help MWES reach the top! 🏆

Let’s keep making a difference—one can at a time! 💚

♻️ Celebrating Our 3rd Grade Recycling Heroes! ♻️

Our amazing 3rd graders have reached an incredible milestone — 105,000 cans collected! 🎉 This is a huge step on the road to recycling success, and we are so proud of their hard work and commitment to helping our environment.

To celebrate this achievement, our recycling heroes earned a pack of slime thanks to the generosity of Tri-Arrows Aluminum! 🟢

Every can collected makes a difference, and our students are proving that small actions add up to big impact. Let’s keep the momentum going… keep bringing in those cans! ♻️👏

Rain or shine, week day or weekend, the Recycling Superheroes never stop! One crew used their own time to gather the cans from their neighborhood. Which was a great success and filled the car. Others had to empty the large school bin on a rainy, wet day. They know their hard work is helping the Earth. The sign has also been officially displayed on our bin once again. So all things are ready and set to make March the best aluminum beverage can recycling month yet!! ♻️♻️ 🍀We know it can't happen just by luck so please continue to support our school!!! 🍀 #MillionCansContest

Adventures with Adams continued with Samuel! He has a quiet demeanor but his kind manner cannot be unnoticed. His points earned were well deserved and it was my pleasure to celebrate recognizing him for these achievements. I enjoyed supporting him and his creativity constructing a Lego animal. We are proud of his efforts to follow the Braves expectations!

🌟 Adventures with Adams 🌟

Today I had the pleasure of spending time with AJ, Sawyer, and Elaynah for Adventures with Adams! This is always such a special part of my day. Not only do we get to build a Lego animal together, but I also get the opportunity to learn more about each of these amazing students as individuals.

These three worked hard to earn their points by consistently following the Braves Expectations, and they chose to spend those points on this experience which makes it even more meaningful! 👏

Each student brought their own unique design ideas and creative building skills to the table. Watching their excitement as their Lego animals came to life and seeing the pride they felt taking home their new Lego friends was priceless.

I am so proud of the great choices they made to earn this opportunity. It is truly a joy to work with each of them and celebrate their accomplishments! 💙🧱

Two of our awesome students, Ephraim and Lukas, chose to spend their hard- earned points on Adventures with Adams today! They have been working hard, making great choices, and showing responsibility and it paid off. It's always exciting to see students setting goals and then enjoying the reward they earned. I love getting to celebrate their success and make memories together building Lego creations. Way to go, boys you earned it!!
