Picture Day is this Monday, October 9! Flyers went home with students today, but in case it got lost on the way home from school, click here for another copy.
Is your child passionate about student leadership? Is your child someone who wants to voice his/her opinions and make a difference? Does your child want to be a part of making history? If you answered yes to any of these questions, your child is the right person to step up for the Student Delegate leadership opportunity. Want to know more and how to apply? Click here!
On Monday, October 23, Mayfield Woods will host programs throughout the day celebrating Red Ribbon Week. To learn more about what we have planned, or if you would like your child to opt out of the planned activities, click here for more information.
Last year we started the #onemayfield campaign at Mayfield Woods, celebrating diversity, unity and community. Since its inception, we feel strongly that every single person who enters our doors will know that at Mayfield we value our diversity. We celebrate the uniqueness of each individual child, parent, staff member, and member of our community and we believe that our different backgrounds and cultures make us stronger.
Three days this semester we are hosting grade level #onemayfield days, and each student will have an opportunity to participate. Click here to learn more about the #onemayfield days, including our vision, goals, and the dates of the #onemayfield days.

If you did not send the paper copy back to school with your child, there is still time to complete an online consent form (also due today, October 6).
