Our Senior Art Majors are making progress on a legacy project that will grace the halls of MWHS for many years to come. Students are creating a 12 foot by 8 foot mural - 3 panel triptych. They mural was designed for the large stairwell space on B floor south.
Students worked for two weeks designing the theme, the specific images and color scheme, sharing their rough sketches and merging their designs to create a final product that incorporates all of their creative ideas.
The final design is a tranquil scene that depicts earth, sea and sky with overlapping underwater creatures and floating planets. It's their own creative depiction of an imagined environment. We can't wait to see the final product!
REMINDER: All M-W schools and offices will be closed on Monday, May 29, in honor of Memorial Day. We remember those who sacrificed their lives while serving so that we can live in freedom. Today we honor our nation's heroes.
Here they are! Plans for the last weeks of school have just been published:. Visit https://www.mw.k12.ny.us/documents/end-of-year-student-schedules-june-2023/326581 for elementary, middle and high school schedules
Enjoy all the fun events and activities in May and June!
The MWHS Drama Club Kids on the Block Troupe visited North Main, Central Valley, and Pine Tree today! Our talented students (James D., Gray J., Ashley C. and Sophia T., led by their student director, Kylie M.) engaged, entertained and educated 2nd and 3rd grade students and shared important messages of compassion and understanding. BRAVO!💜🥰
Third graders at Central Valley have the right idea! What's better than spending time in the library with an awesome book? What are YOU reading today?📚🤔
PT's Celebration of Capabilities today featured Winslow Therapeutic Riding. Fourth graders were asked to imagine needing crutches or a wheelchair to enjoy the outdoors, and then to imagine the freedom of riding a horse that can take you anywhere. They met (and petted) therapy horse, Skunk, while learning about the physical and emotional support he gives his riders. There were questions, questions and more questions from our students. Thanks for a great morning, Winslow!
Celebration of Capabilities Week at PT continues with a visit from a furry friend, Willow the Therapy Dog. As a therapy dog, Willow is trained to provide comfort and affection. Her sweet, warm nature made for an awesome visit with Pine Tree second graders. Thank you, Willow!🐾☺️
