UPDATE OR REPORT

There are always many events happening at Memorial!

Thank You Brenntag Southwest

Memorial Elementary appreciates the support of Brenntag Southwest for their generous donation for our science fair and math/science night. Our students and their families were able to participate in numerous hands-on activities promoting math and science, as well as taking home extension materials to continue their learning at home. In addition, our science fair had a record-setting level of student participation, adding to the excitement of our event as students showcased their projects for friends and family.

Thank You Plano Rotary Club

Our fourth graders were the latest benefactors of the Plano Rotary Club and their continued support of our mission to provide excellent education for all students. Fourth grade was treated to a special performance by the Plano Symphony Orchestra in March. Thank you for the opportunity for our students to extend their learning of the arts beyond the classroom.

Under Construction: Building the Future

Our new building is being completely rebuilt with funds from the 2008 bond program and will open in the fall of 2012. The new building, being constructed behind the original building, will provide 77,000 square feet featuring spacious classrooms, library, hallways, cafeteria, and gym.

Doors will open at 7:30 a.m. on these two dates. After the first dates the forms will be accepted in the office of Student Administrative Services located at 5804 Coit Rd., Suite #102, Plano, 75023 between the hours of 8:00-5:00, Monday through Friday. No transfer requests will be accepted after June 15. Interested parents should submit applications as early as possible within these dates as grade levels and campuses will be closed when limits are reached. A $50 transfer application fee is required at the time the request is filed. On the first dates, payments must be made by cash or check. On other dates cash, check or credit card payments are accepted. The fee may be waived for students who provide a copy of the letter confirming qualification for the Free or Reduced Lunch Program.
