Macclenny Elementary School“Wildkitten News”November, 2019 Dear Families, We are so excited about the great things happening at MES! We recently administered the STAR Reading and Math tests. WOW, I am so impressed by the amount of growth our students have already made! Also, our new playground is nearing completion! This playground equipment was made possible by the support of our friends and family through fundraiser sales. It will be a “happy day” when our students are playing on that equipment. As we approach the Thanksgiving holidays, I hope everyone can take some time to reflect on our many blessings. We truly have so much to be thankful for. The faculty and staff of Macclenny Elementary consider it an honor to work with your child and we give thanks for each of our Wildkittens! Sincerely, Lynn T.
