We want to give a huge congratulations to our new Teacher of the Year, Jennifer Brucker!

Mrs. Brucker is kind, compassionate, caring, creative, and full of love for her students and peers. If you were lucky enough to sit in her classroom then you know what a warm, welcoming classroom it is. It is one with high expectations, room for grace, and such love. Thank you Mrs. Brucker for all you continue to pour into your students. It’s teachers like you that make Merriwether an awesome place to learn.

We also want to give a huge congratulations to our support staff of the year, Officer Sydney Moulton. Officer Sydney is always helping someone in our building. She has a smile on her face and positive attitude in everything she does. She not only helps students feel welcome but she also protects our students and families at MES. We are not only safer, but well loved because of her!

As we wrap up our school year we would love to take a moment to honor our retirees, Missy Thompson and Allison Kervin. While Mrs. Kervin retired earlier this year, Mrs. Thompson stayed on to watch her fifth graders graduate.

We are so thankful for teachers like these that have poured their heart and soul into their career to teach and grow our students. Thank you for your service ladies. Congratulations on your retirement!

Fifth grade parents, be on the look out for this sweet treat from the library.

Ms. Mock went through each fifth grade child’s book stats during elementary school. She made these neat cards for them to remember to always be a reader!

We love reading and hope this encourages them to keep reading as they move on to middle school.
