First Grade Scribble Art
The first graders enjoyed National Scribble Day by creating their own scribble art after reading the book, I’M NOT JUST A SCRIBBLE…. By: Diane Alber. This book has a great moral about kindness and acceptance, while encouraging children to create art regardless of their artistic abilities. We are all wonderfully and uniquely made!

Just a reminder, this cannot be stressed enough. Repeat after me...if anyone in your household is being tested...everyone needs to stay home until you receive the results. If in doubt… please contact Dr. Rappold before sending your son/daughter to school. It takes everyone’s teamwork to ensure everyone is safe.
Title 1 Services
The Miami East Board of Education uses the federally funded Title 1 program to assist in meeting the reading needs of our students. The Title 1 instructors, along with the classroom teacher, assesses and works with students, parents and other staff members to meet the needs of selected students. At Miami East Elementary, Title 1 funds are used to target and assist selected K-3 students. If your child qualifies for services, you will be contacted by our Title 1 reading instructors.
