Principal’s Message:
Dear Imai Parents,
This week our students have diligently worked on their i-ready assessments. Today is the first day of reading as we just finished with math.
Field day was so much fun. We always look forward to having our fifth graders lead the stations during field day.
A Reminder about turning in this year's volunteer badges: Please turn in your volunteer badges to the front office between now and the end of the school year. This year’s badge will not work for next year.

Better Together: May
May is Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, a time dedicated to recognizing the rich history, cultural diversity, and significant contributions of the Asian American Pacific Islander community to our society. It's an opportunity to celebrate the many achievements and the vibrant traditions that AAPI individuals bring to the fabric of our communities. As we honor this important month, it's also an excellent moment to reflect on the #BetterTogether theme of recognizing our own self-worth. Each of us, regardless of background, has unique strengths and an intrinsic value that contributes positively to our communities and the world at large. Celebrating AAPI Heritage Month reminds us to appreciate not only the diversity around us but also the value within ourselves, fostering a deeper understanding and respect for all. For more information about Better Together, visit mvwsd.org/BetterTogetherMVWSD.
