Watching our SIP come alive with our first school-wide Thoughtful Thursday. All of MPS stopped at 9:10 to do a short gentle yoga stretch and take a minute to breathe. Health & Wellness is so important this school year and we are so happy to be able to share this with our kids.

Today I learned that I can fit 50 mini marshmallows in my mouth and 3 peeps. When my dentist asks why I have so many cavities I will tell him it’s because we teach measurement in 2nd grade!
