Miss Basil's Class Third graders in Miss Basil's class had an exciting time exploring block coding with the Finch robots, generously borrowed from the ROE. Students worked collaboratively to program their robots to move, light up, and even draw shapes. The hands-on experience brought coding concepts to life, sparking curiosity and enthusiasm for technology!

Congratulations to our Memorial students for their accomplishments in reading. Great job and we hope everyone keeps up the great work in reading!

More holiday fun and excitement to come...

They are asking Memorial families and the Taylorville Community to come together and make a difference! A flyer with suggested donation items has been sent home with students and is attached here.

Let’s show our community spirit and lend a helping hand to those in need! Thank you for your generosity!

Our 3rd graders participated in the Land of Smiles assembly, presented by Delta Dental this morning, where they learned all about the importance of proper dental hygiene. Through fun and engaging activities, students discovered how to take care of their teeth, the benefits of regular brushing and flossing, and the impact of a healthy smile on overall well-being. It was a fantastic way to reinforce healthy habits in a fun, memorable way!
