Dear MOSAIC Families,
Happy Veterans Day. Today we honor those who have or are currently serving our country. We are thankful for their service and grateful for the liberties we have living in our great country. Be sure to thank a veteran today!
Our next PTO meeting will be tomorrow night beginning at 6:30pm. The 3rd grade studio teachers will be presenting on all the exciting things taking place in their studio. I will also be presenting on academic performance data, including MAP scores and district benchmark data. We hope to see you tomorrow evening!

Mehlville Listens: How should we support our teachers?
We are asking for parents help to renew our Mehlville School District strategic plan. We need your feedback to set goals and priorities for the next iteration of our strategic plan. To participate, please answer the following question through our ThoughtExchange. What support do our teachers need to prepare our students to be productive and successful citizens?

This is the second in a series of exchanges scheduled for the 2019-2020 school year. Each exchange is based on one of the three main sections of our current strategic plan: student preparation, teacher support, and an effective and efficient school district.
We're also hosting a series of Mehlville Listens meetings, and we encourage you to attend as we explore the ThoughtExchange responses. The next Mehlville Listens meeting is Tuesday, Dec. 10, at Buerkle Middle School from 6:30-8 p.m.
You can learn more about the process and view results of the first ThoughtExchange about student preparation on the Mehlville Listens section of our website: mehlvilleschooldistrict.com/MehlvilleListens
Community Enrichment
I wanted to follow-up from the Principals Meeting last month re: Community Enrichment. We are currently planning our Winter/Spring 2020 schedule, and the district would love to see more programs on the calendar, taught by our talented teachers and staff. I know you all have a full plate, but any support for Community Enrichment is greatly appreciated! Please continue to encourage your teachers and staff to reach out if they have any ideas or ambitions to teach with us this school year.
