TeacherWeb® - Moody Elementary School

Preparing Tomorrow’s Leaders Today

Moody's first school was a rock structure built in 1879. Due to growth in the community, the St. Clair County Board of Education was forced to build a new structure, now known as Moody Elementary School, and establish a middle school. The new elementary building was completed in 1990. By the spring of 1998, a wing with additional classrooms was completed. In 2003, expansion soon became necessary and construction was again completed on a second wing, containing classrooms, restrooms, a computer lab, workroom, and library media center.
Moody Elementary School's school-wide plan has been designed to provide a comprehensive educational program for all students in grades K-3. Our primary goal is to provide instruction that will enable students to meet and exceed state and federal standards. We believe that improving the learning environment and teaching strategies will ultimately result in greater student achievement.

BOOSTERTHON 2009

Parents we had a great time with our Boosterthon guys at school last week. They will be here through the funrun this Thursday. We have had great participation so far. But we need everyone to help out! Remember this is the only fundraiser we will be having as a school so we really have to do our best to raise much needed funding. Last year’s funrun allowed us to add fencing to our playground area and car riders, and to add our new “Raptorwear” visitor sign-in program. Both of these items have been critical to providing a safer place for your children. We were also able to paint the interior of the school, purchase additional textbooks for students, and provide a number of other services, as well as to provide additional instructional money for teacher’s classrooms. Our teachers receive at least 10% of anything their classroom raises. That money goes right back into your child’s classroom! This year we are hoping to raise even more and hopefully alleviate a little of the proration pinch we are feeling. Please help us out in this effort and be sure and come on out on Thursday, November 12, as Moody Elementary School participates in one of our most fun events ever…the second annual Boosterthon Funrun!

M.E.S. Goes Green In an effort to help the environment Moody Elementary will be recycling used ink and toner cartridges. Any used ink or toner cartridges can be sent to Mr. Thompson in the computer lab. Thank You for all your help. We will no longer be collecting newspapers, but encourage you to recycle all paper products whenever possible.
