Mokena School District 159

The MIS Student Council sold Valentine grams during their lunches from February 7 - February 13 as a fundraiser for NAWS. During last week's student council meeting at MIS, they presented NAWS a check for $300. Way to go, Rockets!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day from the 1st grade teachers!

1st Grade students in Ms. Carroll's class presented their "Magnificent Things" today as part of the performance task for their ELA pilot unit, Tools at Work. Students utilized their reading, writing, language, and speaking skills from the unit to research and design an object for their classroom, write an informational paragraph about it, and create and share a presentation as a group. We are so proud of you!
