Namastē! Konnichiwa! Bonjour! Nǐ Hǎo! MHES is an amazing place where students from 17 countries work, learn and play together every day! To celebrate our diversity and develop a better understanding of other cultures, MHES is excited to host its annual Diversity Day this Friday, March 23rd. Students will complete projects about different countries and "tour" these countries around the school by visiting bulletin boards created by students and teachers in each homeroom. 

We are thrilled to announce the Milkshake DUO will join the Spring Fling performance stage line-up from 12:30PM - 1:30PM on April 28th. MILKSHAKE is an award-winning rock band for kids - this special duo performance will feature Lisa Mathews and Mikel Gehl of the Milkshake Band. 

The Grammy-nominated Milkshake has released four award-winning CDs, a Parent’s Choice Silver Award winning DVD Screen Play, and has had music videos on Nick Jr., PBS KIDS and the Emmy-winning cartoon ToddWorld. Their fourth CD, Great Day, was nominated for a Grammy for “Best Musical Recording for Children” in 2010. 

Stay tuned for a complete Spring Fling 2018 Performance Stage schedule coming soon! A special bundle of MILKSHAKE CDs and Swag will also be on bid at the Silent Auction.

(Fingers crossed for some spring weather to go along with it!)
