Today, Mascoutah Elementary School proudly honored the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our great nation!
Our Veterans Day Assemblies were filled with patriotism, gratitude, and pride as our students and staff came together to recognize the sacrifices made by our military heroes. 🇺🇸
Our amazing 5th graders also paid a special Homage to Our Armed Forces through their creative Shoe Box Parade, celebrating the branches of our military and the individuals who serve!
👏 A special THANK YOU to:
⭐ Mrs. Mattmiller – Our wonderful Assembly MC!
⭐ Mr. Coller and Mrs. Ciardelli – Our dedicated Assembly Program Directors!
Your leadership, hard work, and commitment helped make this celebration meaningful for our students, families, and honored guests.
To all veterans, especially those within our MES families and military-connected community, THANK YOU for your courage, sacrifice, and service!
At MES, we are proud to teach our students that honoring our heroes is one more way we show that YOU CAN COUNT ON ME! 💜
🇺🇸 Happy Veterans Day from your MES Family! 🇺🇸

For School Psychologist Week, we wanted to shine a little extra love on someone who makes a BIG difference in the lives of so many at Mascoutah Elementary.
Mrs. Hendrickson is truly one of a kind! Her dedication to our students, staff, and families goes far beyond what words can express. Whether she is helping a student navigate a tough day, supporting a teacher, partnering with a family, or finding ways to help every child succeed, she leads with compassion, patience, and a heart that is always focused on what is best for kids.
So much of what Mrs. Hendrickson does happens behind the scenes, but the impact she makes is felt throughout our entire building. She is a listening ear, a problem solver, an encourager, and an incredible advocate for our students. We are so lucky to have someone who cares so deeply and gives so much of herself to our MES family!
Thank you for being YOU and for making Mascoutah Elementary a better place each and every day. We couldn't do it without you! ❤️
Let's give a HUGE round of applause to our amazing 4th and 5th grade students who earned Honor Roll and High Honor Roll recognition for the first quarter! 🌟📚
Your dedication, determination, and commitment to academic excellence have not gone unnoticed! We know that success doesn't happen overnight. It takes hard work, perseverance, and a willingness to give your BEST every single day!
👏 We are SO PROUD of each of you! Keep setting goals, pushing yourselves, and showing what it means to be an MES Indian!
💜🤍 Keep shining, scholars! Remember, at MES, "You Can Count on Me!"

Dear MES Families,
**What an incredible Boosterthon Glow Run!**
We are excited to share the final results of our MES Boosterthon fundraiser! Although we fell just short of our $29,000 goal, our amazing school community came together to raise an outstanding **$27,336!**
This is a tremendous accomplishment, and we could not have done it without the generosity, enthusiasm, and support of our MES families!
Every dollar raised will help us provide meaningful experiences for our scholars throughout the school year, including field trips, student incentives, Carnival Day, end-of-year celebrations, and other exciting activities that make MES such a special place to learn and grow.
**🎉 Let's Celebrate Our Winners!**
We are also excited to recognize some of our incredible Boosterthon prize winners!
🏆 **Grand Prize Winner:** Congratulations to the **Ferland Family**, who will be enjoying a trip to Great Wolf Lodge!
🎁 **$50 Gift Card Winners:** Congratulations to our two lucky winners who each received a $50 gift card!
We are so excited for our winners and grateful to everyone who participated in making this fundraiser a success.
**From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU!**
Whether you donated, shared your child's fundraising page, encouraged others to participate, or simply cheered on our scholars during the Glow Run, YOU played an important role in our success.
While we may not have reached our original fundraising goal, we accomplished something even greater: we demonstrated what happens when a school community comes together to support its children.
We are proud of our MES Scholars, grateful for our families, and excited about the experiences these funds will provide.
Thank you for continuing to make Mascoutah Elementary School an amazing place for our children!
**You Can Count on Me!**
With gratitude,
**Dr. Michelle Cooley**
Principal, Mascoutah Elementary School
