On Wednesday, November 20th, Mooresburg Elementary School will be serving our annual Thanksgiving Dinner in the cafeteria.
We would like to invite you to eat lunch with your child. Due to supply concerns, we want to make sure we have enough food for everyone, so we ask to limit two guest per child.
The menu consist of roast turkey with dressing and gravy, baked ham, cranberry sauce, creamed potatoes, green beans, sweet potato casserole, tossed salad, yeast rolls, fresh fruit, pumpkin pie, and milk.
The cost for Thanksgiving Dinner is $6.00 for all visitors. It would be very much appreciated if you could bring the exact change, as we do not take debit or credit cards, cash only, no large bills, we will not have change.

Topic: The New Bus Routing System
Parents, please know that while we realign bus routes and move to our new routing system, we need your help and patience. This has been a three-year process. All student data we had in our student information system during the summer was used to identify routes and assign drivers. However, as you know, the new school year always brings changes to addresses, phone numbers, late enrollees, and drop off and pick up changes. Please remember, all routes are arranged with priority placed on student safety and route efficiency. Per Board Policy 3.401, “students living within three-tenths (.3) of a mile to an established bus route will be required to walk to said route.” Please call the transportation department with any concerns, questions, or to updates to any student information, especially any address or contact information changes. Our transportation department number is 423-272-7629, ext. 2501 and 2502. Also, please refer the transportation link for updated information: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qe82NJf2oF-6188fUIQzcSnW0JyRHzGtWywlCwxcESA/edit?gid=0#gid=0
Parents and guardians, we will be fully enforcing our cell phone expectations, particularly at the high school level this school year, beginning August 5. As a reminder, we did not allow cell phone use in classrooms last year. This year, we will move to not allow cell phones to be used during school. This is in accordance with Board Policy 6.312, which states, “Middle school students’ cell phones and other electronic devices are to be turned off and not visible upon a student’s arrival to school (upon entering the school building) until the end of the student’s school day. High school students are not permitted to use cell phones during or between classes unless it is for academic purposes, under direct supervision of a classroom teacher.” Thank you for your understanding and support.
