December Poetry

By Juliette 
Cold sting of winter air
Bites with frozen jaws at the
Warmth of our small toes

Made it out of clay
And when it’s dry and ready
Dreidel I shall play

We wake up to that
Lovely smell of Christmas pine
And the early fog

Snow fades beneath feet
Snowflakes glide to eyelashes
Cocoa burns young tongues

Crisp rips of paper
Bows torn off, smiles then brighten
Makes a happy mess

My dry, old hands soothe
My very chapped lips that sting
Looking for chapstick

Holidays are done
Appreciative of my gifts
Leaving family

The Word: April By Odessa

What do you think of when you hear the word April? Do you think of spring and newly blooming flowers or do you think about April Fool's Day and the pranks? April originally used to be the second month of the year, still following March, of the Roman calendar year. But it became the fourth month around 450 BCE with only 29 days. But when Pope Gregory created the Gregorian calendar in 1582, he changed it to 30 days of April. There are several theories about the etymology of April, the first is that April, came from aperire which means ‘to open’ in Latin. A second theory is that April was named after the Greek goddess of love and beauty, “Aphrodite”. Or another theory that Jacob Grimm, a famous linguist, though was that there was a god or hero named Aper or Aprus April is actually National Humor Month as well as Mathematics Awareness Month and National Poetry Month. April is a wonderful month, we get the chance to fully appreciate spring.

The pig races have come and gone again, to be back next year. Thank you to every single person who traded in ten or more tickets. That’s $100 that goes to funding to all the cool stuff we have in MVMS, including the iPads and all of the electives. This is the biggest fundraiser of the year here at MVMS. Every single ticket you sold helped your school be what it is. Also, congratulations to every person who got into the Grand Pig Pre . Getting to that annual race is a big accomplishment. It's fun because you help your school while having fun!
