The Mathews High School Band recently traveled to Mathews Elementary School to put on a performance for our younger students! It was a great opportunity for them to experience live music and learn more about our band program!
International Dot Day - global celebration of creativity, courage and collaboration inspired by Peter H. Reynolds' book The Dot - was celebrated on September 15. Our students at Mathews Elementary School heard the story and then used their imaginations to design their own unique dots!
The result? This beautiful collage that's on display in our hallway!

We're excited to share that some of our talented students presented a beautiful bound collection of Currie art to Christine Novicky with the Vienna Historic Society! This project was showcased at last year's Unity Day, and thanks to our PTO, the art was compiled into a book!

These are the themes for the upcoming Mathews Homecoming Spirit Week!
Due to the current rain and the forecast of continued weather concerns, we regret to announce that today's Parade of Mustangs has been canceled for the safety of all participants and spectators. We understand this is disappointing, but your safety is our top priority. We look forward to seeing everyone at our upcoming homecoming week events. Check on our website and social media feeds for announcements and updates. Thank you for your understanding and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

ELEMENTARY: UPDATED DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP PROCEDURES
Wishing you all a great year!
ELEMENTARY END OF DAY STUDENT PICK UP: When considering Permanent Pick Up this year, please understand that there is limited parking available in the lot. I am encouraging families to give first priority to using the buses. Due to the consolidation and not having to shuttle to and from Currie, it is expected that most bus travel times will be cut by 15-35 minutes. Your consideration of this is greatly appreciated.
Permanent Pick Up begins Monday, September 9. Prior to this date, all students being picked up must have a daily note or phone call to the school.
MATHEWS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL LUNCHES: For lunches this school year, you will have the option to pick from 2 hot options or a cold option entree. For example, you can choose either the nachos OR the quesadilla. If the student does not like either of those, we will have a sandwich option for that day as well.
Tune in and watch the 2024 Mathews Band Night!
