In celebration of National Custodian Day, Montevideo Public Schools would like to recognize and thank our awesome, hard-working custodial staff for keeping our schools and grounds safe and clean! We appreciate all that you do! #HawkPride
Thursday is Favorite Sports Team Day! Wear your favorite team's colors, jerseys, or other appropriate apparel.
Picture day is this Friday for Sanford and Ramsey students. Remember to fill out the order forms and send them back to school with your child. You can also order online at creekviewimages.com and use code 72787MA.
Every student will have their picture taken even if you choose not to order. If your child misses picture day, there will be a retake day at a later date.
Please welcome Tania Turcios! Ms. Turcios is the Family Liaison for Sanford Elementary and the Hawks Nest. Tania was born in Honduras and now resides here in Montevideo. She lives with her siblings and mother. Tania says "There is always something crazy and unexpected going on at my house, but I love it!" What she loves most about being a Thunder Hawk is being able to come back to the community that she grew up in and help those who need it. Tania enjoys spending time with family and friends when she's not working. Her "Why" for being in education is to help the new generations find their place in the world or at least be able to offer some support towards their growth.
We are excited to have you, Tania, and hope you have a great first year!
Meet our new staff! Help us welcome Morgan Lenning, Social Worker at Sanford Elementary School.
Morgan received a Bachelor's degree in Social Work and a minor in Human Relations from St. Cloud State University. She has been a licensed social worker in the state of Minnesota since 2016. For the last six years, Morgan worked at Chippewa County Family Services providing support and case management services to families through a variety of programs. She loves working with kids and is looking forward to being with students on a daily basis and building relationships with them. Morgan is excited to be able to play an active role in working with the children and families in the school district and community.
Morgan and her husband have a 9-month-old baby boy and two dogs. Her favorite thing to do is spend time with her family, and she enjoys gardening and being outside. Welcome to our team, Morgan!
