READING FUN TIP - Listening to recorded books helps to improve vocabulary. Simply hearing a book read from a recording will reinforce words and exposes listeners to new words. Audiobooks can be downloaded, played from a CD, or streamed free from apps.

Message from Superintendent, Glenn Tidwell:
Valentine's Day is almost here! With social distancing and sanitary practices in place, the Marion County School System would like to make sure you are still able to send gifts to students should you choose to do so. We will observe Valentine's Day for the school system on Thursday, February 11th (as long as schools remain open at that time). Friday (12th) and Monday (15th) are scheduled holidays. We ask that you adhere to the following guidelines as you order and have items delivered to the schools: 1) All items must come from one of our Chamber of Commerce-approved vendors: A & E Designs (229-262-0465), Shon’s Designs (229-314-1982), The Dime Store (229-649-7211), The Coffee Club (229-649-7800), and Buena Vista Floral (229-277-0077). These vendors have agreed to follow COVID safety protocols. No one will be allowed to drop off gifts at the schools except for these approved vendors. 2) All items should be delivered by the vendor to the Media Center at L.K. Moss and to the gym at MCMHS. Please be sure to provide the vendor with the homeroom teacher for elementary students and the last period/block teacher of middle and high school students. (Note: At the middle/high school, students will be given their items on the way to the bus.) 3) As usual, if your child or teen is a bus rider, balloons must be the small kind with a "stick": no large balloons will be permitted on buses. 4) Anything other than flowers must be fully wrapped in cellophane. 5) The Chamber has approved specific members with business licenses to participate in our delivery process. This is for the safety of our students, as deliveries will be held to rigid safety standards and will limit the number of visitors to our campus. Please refer to the school reopening information posted on our website for detailed information. If there is a licensed business wishing to participate, please contact the Buena Vista Chamber of Commerce to review safety procedures for becoming approved.
VALENTINE’S DAY INFORMATION: (VERY IMPORTANT from the desk of Dr. Medders)
In keeping with our COVID guidelines, LK Moss students will not be allowed to bring candy, food and cards from home to give out to students on Thursday, February 11. This is a health safety precaution. Please refer to Mr. Tidwell's message below concerning Valentine's deliveries to the school.
READING FUN TIP: Turn reading into something special. Take your kids to the library, help them get their own library card, read with them, and buy them books as gifts. Have a favorite place for books in your home or, even better, put books everywhere.
