Welcome to MPES!

Flowers created by our third grade students inspired by Georgia O'Keefe, and our own amazing art teacher, Mr. Lombardo!
For Autism Awareness Day in April, K students created puzzle piece artwork to show their compassion and creativity!
Two types of Critical Thinking are Analyzing and Discriminating. In analyzing, students break wholes into parts. In discriminating, students group things together, as seen here expressed beautifully in 100 Days Posters by 1st graders.

MPES Students writing and speaking about the Carmel 6 Cs and the Habits of Mind!

During the month of April, students and staff at Matthew Paterson spoke, wrote about and practiced the habits of Creating, Imagining and Finding Humor. Now in May, we are focusing on the habits of Managing Impulsivity and Taking Responsible Risks and the Carmel C of Citizenship. Each month as students share their reflections, ideas, writing and thoughts you can find examples in Keenan's Corner!

This student shared her writing on Citizenship with our school during the morning announcements.
