Mark your calendars! The end of the year is quickly approaching and our students can't wait to "show" you all the wonderful things they have accomplished this year! The book fair will be open beginning at 4:30 followed by a brief PTA meeting at 5:45 to share updates on fundraisers and exciting things that they have done for our school, staff and students! After the meeting, families will visit classrooms to check out the awesome work of our teachers and students! The book fair will remain open until 7:00. Feel free to shop online (beginning May 6th) for the book fair or set up eWallet (beginning April 17th)! eWallet is a nifty feature that allows you to preload money for your student without worrying about money falling out of book bags or pockets! https://www.scholastic.com/bf/microelem

Hello Families! Our school is fortunate enough to have a clothes closet in the event a student is in need of a change of clothes. We have more than enough shirts but we are in desperate need of pants. As the weather is warming up and you begin to go through clothing items, our closet would be extremely grateful for any pants or shorts that you no longer need. Below are the specific genders/sizes needed.
Girls Size 5 - 14
Boys Size 5 - 14
If you feel so led, we are also in need of donations of new packs of underwear and flushable wet wipes. Please turn in to the front office staff and they will get the items to our counselor or Mrs. Penny.

Good evening Micro Families & Community,
This is Dr. B with an update about our Annual Cow Patty Bingo Fundraiser Event. As you know, we had to reschedule this event due to inclement weather prior to the Spring Break and Easter Holiday. We wanted to let you know that our cow is ready to go and we will bring Ol' Bessie out tomorrow morning bright and early at 8 AM to do her business. We will update you all on the winners of this event....all dependent on where Ol' Bessie makes "her messy." Stay tuned to hear who our lucky winners are and thank you to all who helped make this fundraiser one of our MOST successful yet. Winners will be announced and contacted tomorrow. We hope you are all enjoying the Spring Break and the rest and peace it brings.
Happy National AP Week to Dr. B! The B in Dr. B is for BEST! We are so thankful to have her at Micro Elementary! 🕷️💛
Shout out to a small community who knows how to pull together in a time of need! Thank you to the Micro Volunteer Fire Department for letting us use their ice machine today as ours was unavailable. Snow cones and smiles today for our kiddos as they head off to spring break!
We will return to school on April 9th. We hope everyone has a safe and restful break!

Last night, JCPS celebrated the 2024 Leading with the Heart recipients!💝
The event, inspired by Mike Krzyzewski’s book, “Leading with the Heart,” recognizes those staff members throughout the school system that demonstrate leadership, compassion, and heart on a daily basis. One person from every school as well as central services was nominated by their peers, because of their unwavering commitment and dedication to their role.
We honor the 53 amazing members of the JCPS family for their work that clearly does not go unnoticed! Thank you!✨
Stay tuned for an event recap video...
