☀️ We are **NOT** wishing summer away. We repeat: **NOT WISHING SUMMER AWAY.**

Buuuuut… now that classroom assignments are out it is hard to deny that.....it’s almost time. 👀🎒

The backpacks are lurking. The school supplies are multiplying. And before we know it, the halls at J/J and Robinson will be buzzing again!

As we start gearing up for another great year, help us make sure all of our **new and returning JJ + Robinson families** know where to find us!

👉 **Share the MESA page with a friend, neighbor, new family, bus stop buddy… you know the drill!** The more families we have here, the more connected (and fun!) our school community can be.

Enjoy those last sweet days of summer… we’ll be right here, getting ready. 😉✨

**It’s almost time, MESA!** 🎉

🎓 Congratulations to Senior Kelsey O'Connor, recipient of the 2026 MESA Leadership & Service Scholarship! 🎓

Last week, MESA was proud to award Kelsey our annual Leadership & Service Scholarship, which helps offset the cost of college for a graduating senior who has demonstrated an outstanding commitment to serving their school and community.

Kelsey, thank you for the positive impact you have made on our students, families, and community. We are incredibly grateful for your years of service and know you will continue to do great things in this next chapter. And of course, when a Olivia Bieke heard that Kelsey was chosen, she just HAD to be there to give her the award since she is one of her favorite CHAMPS counselors! Such a full circle moment!

Please join us in congratulating Kelsey and wishing her the very best in college and beyond! 💚🖤

MESA's final Board meeting of the 2025-2026 school year is in the books!

Last night, outgoing and incoming Board members came together to reflect on an incredible year and look ahead to what's next. We discussed the budget and brainstormed new ways to strengthen our school community and continue building the village that supports our students, families, and staff.

A heartfelt thank you to Melissa Gordy, Corinne Brems, Krystyn Haskell, Alma Richeh, and Bethany Dionne for their dedication and countless hours of service over the past several years. Your contributions have helped make MESA what it is today, and we are so grateful for all you have done. We won’t let you go far though!

We're also excited to welcome the 2026-2027 MESA Board and look forward to another year of connection, enrichment, support, and community!

🎓 Congratulations to our 5th Graders! 🎓

Today we celebrate the J/J 5th graders as they mark the end of their elementary school journey and get ready for their next adventure in middle school!

MESA was excited to help make the day a little extra special with balloons and signs to cheer them on as they walk into this exciting new chapter.

A special thank you goes out to all of the 5th grade MESA families. Whether you volunteered at an event, donated, attended meetings, or simply cheered us on, your support helped create so many memorable experiences for our students throughout their elementary years.

Also, thank you to Kelli-Beth, Janie and Lauren for sweating it out and getting the balloons and signs in the ground before the celebration began, but not before the heat and humidity! We are SO grateful for you!
