We want to congratulate all of our superheroes for the month of February.  They have been amazing examples of what being a superhero truly is.

Also congratulations to our staff superheroes: Mrs. Morrison (2nd grade teacher) and Mrs. Bringhurst (secretary).  We are lucky to have such awesome people at Meadow Brook.

And finally, a big shout out to our PTA leaders and ALL of the parents that serve in the PTA and give so generously of your time and resources.  We couldn't imagine Meadow Brook without you!  Thank you!

Dear Parents,

On March 2nd our third grade was treated to two fantastic presentations.

Guatemala-Marilee Brooks (Kaylee’s mom)

Mexico-Joe Memmott (Eliza’s dad)

Our third grade learned about the beautiful land, people, dress, food and music of Guatemala and Mexico.

It is not too late to sign up for the Kid's Marathon. The purpose of the kids marathon program is to teach students the benefits of an active lifestyle, help students incorporate fitness into their daily/weekly routine, teach students about goal setting, and have students feel a sense of accomplishment as they complete the marathon distance (26.2 miles) and receive a finisher medal.

We loved having students and parents for pastries and donuts to celebrate Dr. Seuss Day!

Our class has just finished learning all about gravity.  We learned about scientists and did some experiments, we did gravity art, we tried to build marshmallow towers that stood up agains gravity and we flew paper airplanes.  Everyone had fun!  Here is what some of our students had to say:

"I loved the paper airplane experiment.  We learned about why gravity does not pull an airplane down." (Cambrie)

"My favorite thing was when we did the gravity art page.  I learned that not everything always falls straight down." (Ryker)

The space center that I went to in Alpine District, was one of  the best places that I have ever been. I went on a field trip with the whole 6th grade. The ship that I got was the Galileo. The name of our mission was Cold Hearted. It was a lot of fun. The job that I got was to be the tactical, who is in charge of the weapons and the shields of the ship. But the tactical is not the only job; you can get the messenger, the captain, the engineer, the operations, ambassador, first officer, and the helm (the pilot).

Nebo School District is always trying to improve communication and responsiveness to our stakeholders. To that end, we invite students, parents and teachers to give feedback on teachers and administrators in Nebo District schools.  A link to the Nebo Stakeholder Survey 2017-2018 will be found on the Nebo home page at www.nebo.edu beginning Wednesday, February 7 and remaining open until Wednesday, February 21, 2018, where Nebo District stakeholders will be able to share their thoughts and experiences.

Announcing our Meadow Brook Teacher of the Year- Susan Jurkatis!
