Three MSE 5th graders start every day by writing and delivering the day’s menu, birthdays, weather, Pledge of Allegiance, and announcements.  And all this takes place before school starts at 7:50.  These highly responsible students are the 2019-2020 Morning Show Producers, and they are all business! Thank you to Henry, Ashley, and Alyssa, for starting everyone’s day off right at Maude Saunders!
