Monday, March 28 Day 1
Movement: Field is open!
PHONES: Just a reminder that phones should be off and stored away during the school day. The school day begins when you come into Mahoney and ends at 2:45.
There seems to be an increase in the amount of perfume/Axe and cologne people are using. Please know that there are some students and staff who have asthma and allergies and strong fragrances can cause issues.
Please be mindful of how much perfume or cologne/Axe you use either at home or here at school.
Adults will kindly and privately ask you to use less, if you are not aware yourself. Perhaps your friends will let you know, as well?
Today we welcome several new students to Mahoney! Thank you for your smiles, your hellos and your invitations to have a new student join you in class or in the cafeteria.
Reading Olympics:
The Mahoney Reading Olympics door decorating contest concluded last week. A special thank you to our student council judges who dedicated their time to score each door on the following categories: Overall visual impact, Mahoney Reading Olympics theme (including Olympics and reading), and country representation. The door decorations were very strong overall and a ton of creativity was displayed!
Our overall door decorating winners are
Gold: Main Office, representing Spain
Silver: Mrs. Woodbury, representing Uzbekistan
Bronze: Mrs. Naso representing Nigeria.
Scores were so close for the top ten doors! It was really anyone's game. Because of how close our top teams were, we will also be adding bonus points to the Olympics total for connections rooms who were top of their grade level in the contest.
Grade level winners are: Fifth Grade and Multigrade Rooms:
Gold: Main Office, representing spain
Silver: Mrs. Naso representing Nigeria
Bronze: Mr. McCann representing Madagascar
Honorable mention to Mrs. McNeeley representing Kenya.
For Sixth Grade
Gold: Mrs. Woodbury representing Uzbekistan
Silver: Ms. Broda representing Brazil
Bronze: Mrs. Pitt representing Peru
Honorable mention to Mrs. Brown representing Bulgaria.
For seventh grade
Gold: Mrs. Lefebvre representing Hungary
Silver: Mr. Nee representing Norway

Honorable mention to Ms. Milton representing Morocco.
For eighth grade

Silver: Ms. Schmearer representing Slovakia
Bronze: Mrs. Voelker representing the Virgin Islands
Honorable mention to Mrs. Raymond representing Ireland.
If you have not gotten a chance to get around the school to check out all of the doors, you should definitely do so! Congratulations to all teams for putting so much effort and thought into representing your countries in the Mahoney Reading Olympics door decorating contest!
