New Playground Installed!

 

We are so happy to have our new playground up and in use! The playground is at the back of the school, exiting through the back doors of the Early Childhood hallway. The new structure has shade, which is great, and there are climbing structures and swings as well.  It is so nice to have this new playground.  We thank everyone who made donations to this project.  This is phase one, and we will be working on the design for phase two.  Donations are still gladly being accepted for our ongoing playground project. 

Summer Program Closed This Wednesday, July 4

 

This Wednesday, Childcare and Summer Program will be closed in observance of the July 4th Independence Day Holiday!  We hope everyone has a great day celebrating with friends or family.

 

Childcare and Summer Camp will resume a normal schedule Thursday, July 5.

Enrollment for 2012-2013

 

A packet of information regarding the upcoming school year was mailed recently to MLS Early Start through the 8th grade parents. The special form indicating your tuition rate, additional childcare hours needed, and optional orchestra for 1st through 4th grade, should be returned to the school office in the addressed envelope that was included in the packet. Also, if you have changes or additions to emails, phone numbers, or contact information, please indicate that on the student information form (also included in the packet)and return it to the school office as well. If you have any questions about enrollment for the new school year, please do not hesitate to call the school office at 713-782-4022.  Dawn Bennett, who is in the business office, can help you with tuition questions.

 

The new school year begins on Wednesday, August 15!

New Air Conditioning and New Gym Roof!

 

MLS is a busy place this summer!  If you are here for summer program, you have seen a lot of activity near the gym area. A new roof is going on the gym - no more leaks!  Much-needed new A/C units are also being installed for the gym and the back hallway classrooms. That part of the building has been in need of new units for quite a while. Money from the MLCS Capital Campaign was earmarked for this project. 

Infants, Early Start, and Summer Camp Closed Aug 9, 10, 13, and 14

 

Please be reminded that Summer Program and the Infant and Early Start classes will all be closed August 9, 10, 13, and 14.  The teachers will be preparing their classrooms for the new year after a busy schedule of summertime room usage.
