Best wishes to our parents of fifth graders who will be leaving MHES this year. Thank you for all the time and effort you have put into our PTO and our school all these years! We will hold two meetings this summer, to plan our events and fundraisers, and to put together a budget for next year. Board members will then vote to approve the final budget proposal. All are welcome and encouraged to attend, and kids are welcome too. Location and times TBD.  Join us for the final PTO Meeting of the year in the School Library on June 14th at 6PM! On the agenda are PTO elections for the next school year!

 MHES is once again a proud recipient of a Spring 2018 Access for All Grant through Young Audiences of Maryland. With this support, Medfield Heights will host award winning company SYNETIC THEATRE for (2) back to back assemblies this Spring! Synetic Theater is Washington DC's premier physical theater company bringing a wonderful collection of comical short-stories set to music: an old movie style Charlie Chaplin-like boat ride that turns into an outrageous stormy trip, two cowboys in the wild west taming a bull on the loose, two road workers trying to catch a butterfly in an attempt to capture the heart of a girl, and the classic invisible wall. Students are introduced to the art of storytelling without words through pantomime, imagination, illusions, and physical comedy in this theater assembly. Thank you Medfield Heights Elementary PTO for your continued grant-writing in support of ongoing arts programming and school-wide performances! 
Hawaiian Spirit Day is Friday, June 1st at Medfield Heights Elementary. Come to school dressed in your Luau Party best! The Kona Ice truck will also be sailing up to school for the afternoon, so send your child with cash for a delicious sweet treat to beat the heat! (prices from $2 to $6).
Thank you to our 2017 - 2018 participating fundraising partners for supporting our school and bringing our community together in and around the neighborhood! Please remember to patronize these businesses throughout the summer to show our continued appreciation! AND LET US KNOW which were your favorite night outs so we can keep bringing a great line-up of monthly activities next year!
