Dear MSE-Mendenhall Families,
It is with great regret that I inform you that we did not receive funding for our 2026β2027 Pre-K program. We understand how important this program is to our families and how disappointing this news may be.
Please know that we are actively reaching out to other organizations and potential partners in hopes of securing additional support and funding opportunities for our Pre-K program. We remain committed to serving our students and families in every way possible.
If your child turns 5 years old between August 16 and September 30, please reach out to the school to discuss the possibility of Early Kindergarten Entry testing.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and truly appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued support as we work through this process together.
Thank you for being a valued part of our MSE-Mendenhall family.

MSE Mendenhall Families,
We are extremely excited to announce our Valedictorian and Salutatorian for the 2026 8th Grade Class!
This duo is extra special because they are not only the top two students in their class, but they are also twins! They have earned the 1st and 2nd highest academic rankings in the 8th grade class, and we could not be more proud of their hard work, dedication, and commitment to excellence.
As our 8th graders prepare to transition to high school, we celebrate each of them and wish them continued success. We are confident they will continue to Show Up, Own It, Achieve, and Rise at the next level!
We look forward to celebrating all of our 8th grade students during their Promotional Ceremony on Monday, May 18th. ππ¦
Congratulations to our 2026 Valedictorian and Salutatorian!
