Mesa Elementary staff work hard to ensure the success of every student in our school.  We promote a balanced education, with a strong core curriculum along with music, library, and physical education courses.  We encourage parent involvement, and invite all parents to be a part of our Children, Parents, and Teachers (CPT ) group. We recognize parents as a child’s first teacher, and we thank you for helping Mesa Elementary make a difference in your child’s success.

Dear Parents,

August is here and the first day of school is approaching.  I’m excited to work with each of you again this year.  Some important dates to remember as we approach school are:

1 September 2009                 First Day of School  (school begins at 8:20 a.m.)

17 September 2009                Back-to-School Open House from 5:30-7:00 p.m. 
(More info will come home at the start of school)

Mark your calendars for these important events.  If you have any questions, please call the school office at 265-4229.  Also, below you will find a list of school supplies as requested by each teacher.

Enjoy the remainder of your summer!
