MES first graders are thriving as they embrace independent reading! Their reading stamina is growing and so is their love of books. Keep up the great work, Stars! ⭐ ❤️ 📖
3rd graders recently brainstormed how they can show kindness to others!
The Star Classroom at MES took their first field trip to Navarro Farm in Frankfort. Students were able to interact with animals, explore the gardens, walk through a corn maze, and have a picnic lunch. 🐓🐖🚜🌾
Friendly reminder: no school tomorrow!
Happy Halloween from Mokena 159 teachers and staff!

Crazy hair day at MES is always a huge hit!
1st graders recently finished their module on tools & work by creating a “magnificent thing”. Students worked in small groups to identify a problem, brainstormed a creative solution, and built their project. A few of them presented their project at last week's Board meeting!
Thanks to everyone that came out for the 2nd annual pink out game on Tuesday! It was an incredible event! Huge shoutout to the athletic boosters for organizing!
5th grade students at MIS have been working together to compose a song- they created 4 measures of rhythms and then wrote original lyrics with themes such as Halloween, sports, and even chicken nuggets!
