🎉📚 Kicking Off Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week! 📚🎉 As we celebrate the incredible educators and support staff who make Milton-Union Elementary a special place to learn and grow, we’re proud that our school has been honored with the Governor’s Science of Reading Award! 🏆✨ This prestigious recognition was awarded to just 47 schools across the entire state of Ohio, and we’re thrilled to be one of them! Our dedicated teachers and staff have spent years committed to implementing the Science of Reading—grounded in research, driven by best practices, and focused on unlocking every student's potential. From phonemic awareness to comprehension strategies, they bring expert instruction, passion, and heart to our classrooms every single day. ❤️📖 👏 Please join us in celebrating this tremendous accomplishment and thanking our staff for their ongoing commitment to literacy, excellence, and Bulldog pride!

Our students love spending time in the school library! 📚 Whether they’re discovering new books, diving into a story, or exploring their favorite series, the library is a place where imagination and learning come to life! 🐾✨

📚✨ MUHS students hosted a fantastic Book Festival for our elementary Bulldogs, inspiring a love for reading through interactive literary adventures! From scavenger hunts to puzzles and creative games, high school students designed activities that introduced younger readers to a variety of genres and made reading fun and engaging. We’re so thankful for the opportunity to collaborate with our MUHS students — it’s always a joy to see older and younger Bulldogs learning and growing together! 🐾📖💡

🎶 Our talented 5th graders in Mrs. Chaney’s class put their creativity to work by arranging and performing a song together using recorders and percussion instruments! 👏 We love seeing their collaboration and musical growth in action! 🎼🥁🎵 #BulldogPride #MusicMatters

📣 Reminder, Bulldog Families! Our students in grades 3-5 have important math tests coming up this week — Tuesday and Thursday! 🧮✏️ Please help your child get a good night's sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and arrive on time ready to do their best. 🐾 We’re proud of all their hard work!
