D is for DEFINITELY a FUN week in Mrs. Lee’s kindergarten reading group! 🔤
We’ve been busy discovering the letter D, learning its sound, practicing how to write it the correct way, and dreaming up words that begin with D! These kiddos did a DANDY job! 🙌
To finish off our week of hard work, we dove into some shaving cream to showcase our learning!
A little mess, a LOT of discovery, and some DELIGHTFUL learning along the way! 🤗
Time flies when you’re having fun!

Mrs. Lee’s 4th grade reading group has been working hard on building their reading fluency, strengthening their comprehension, and learning how to properly type!
They have been busy learning, practicing, and growing, and I can’t believe we’re already wrapping up the first quarter of the school year!
So proud of the hard work these kids are putting in! Keep it up, 4th graders! ⚜️
A HUGE thank you to our M-D PTO for donating books to my classroom from the book fair! 🙌
These lovely 2nd graders enjoyed reading them today! 🤩
There’s nothing better than watching kids get excited about reading, and I’m so thankful for a PTO that helps make moments like this possible for our students! 📚 🤍 ⚜️

Our 8th-grade students have been practicing their business letter writing skills by sending letters out into the world! We are excited to share that we have already received two responses! 🎉
🏈 Kinnick received a response from the University of Iowa! 🖤💛
🐴 Braxtyn received a response from Durango! 🤠
What a great way for students to see how professional communication can create real-world connections! We are excited to see what other responses come in. Great job, 8th graders! 👏

This year, the seniors voted on the type of awards ceremony they wanted. They chose to have awards only and no banquet (food). We hope you can join us for a fun evening of celebrating our student-athletes.
🎉 We are proud to have Austin Remster representing Melcher-Dallas FBLA as our District 5 Vice President at SFLC!

Hello! I’m Mrs. Branson, and this is my 20th year of teaching! Throughout my career, I have taught 1st, 2nd, 4th, and currently 5th grades and coached junior high volleyball. I enjoy helping students grow, build confidence, and discover their strengths. I’m excited for another great year of learning and fun!
P is for pizza, pie, puppies, pumpkins… and PLAYING IN SHAVING CREAM! 🍕🥧🐶🎃😂
Mrs. Lee’s kindergarten reading group has been working hard learning all about the letter P, the sound it makes, how to write it, and words that start with P!
Making learning fun, one messy little hand at a time! 🤗
Saints,
After speaking with coaches and Colo's AD, we have decided to play the JH Football game at 4:30 PM Monday, October 12th, as planned. There will not be a JV game to follow, as a result of Friday night's injuries. Sending a team of (maybe) 9 players for an 8-man game is not the best choice we can make in terms of player safety. We understand there will be disappointment, but player safety is our priority.
Thank you,
Dr. Brian Kingrey
Athletic Director
*A more detailed note has been sent to the HS Football Team, Parents, and Coaches.

Macie Adams and Cloie Lamb had an exciting opportunity to visit Iowa State University this week for a Food Science Crash Course!
During their visit, they explored food science facilities, lab spaces and got hands-on experience creating two different types of protein balls while working in teams.
To wrap up the experience, students presented their creations to a panel of judges, competing for the overall winning product! They didn't make the top three but had fun creating new products.
What a great opportunity to explore food science, build teamwork skills, and experience the many career possibilities within food science and agriculture.
